MyPets

Our family has pets, and we view them as members of the family! They’re more to us than just “pets”! We have four dogs. The German shepherd is named Riku. He is the gentlest teddy bear and is my service dog. He alerts me to when my blood sugar is low Even though he is big, he wouldn’t harm a fly. All service dogs are required to be fully trained and aren’t allowed to show any signs of aggressiveness in their personality, so safety is not a concern with him! Instead, I feel much safer with him. He loves babies, children, and the elderly most of all, but keeps his distance as he is “working.” The other three dogs are all small and are pets. Two are girls, and one is a boy. Bandit is my mom ’ s dog and is the oldest. He is a black and white shih tzu who mostly sleeps and loves to eat tasty food. Kandi Kisses is my grandma’s dog, and she is a brown and white shih tzu with a comical personality and the goofiest smile! She gets her name from how lovey she is and is always ready to pamper you with millions of kisses! Last is my pet Lolli, short for Lollipup (like Lollipop, but with a pun!) She is a black/gray and white Chinese Crested, AKC registered. Most of these dogs are hairless, but she is what’s considered a “powder puff”- a genetic variant that gives them fluffy hair! Lolli loves to play and has lots of energy to keep up with all of my nieces and nephews, but at the end of the day, she loves her pajamas and cuddles. Oh, and anyone who will sneak her a treat!
