We did a DNA test on our mutt, and it turns out he’s mostly chihuahua, husky, and poodle. With that context, I present to you: a dog who loves snow, but has meltdowns when it gets into his paw pads. Enter these little booties. He walks like a goofball inside, but then has snow zoomies in the yard.

This is my little buddy Charlie. He’s a very smol ray of sunshine who learned to say, “Pretty bird,” and “I’m a banana!”

I guess people are using their first posts to introduce themselves, but if we’re being real here, my puppy is cooler than I am. This is Hobee, and he is a Very Good Boy. As you can probably tell from these photos, he’s into slapstick comedy and bad puns. I couldn’t ask for a better little buddy.

I’m not quite sure what to post, so here is my tiger salamander Buttercup wearing her oak leaf fascinator. Isn’t she dapper?

She’s a rescue from the local humane society and estimated to be about eight years old. And she’s delightful.
