I fancy quiet snoozes on cozy beds and it’s come to my attention that today’s i Love Dogs Adopt-A-Dog Month Day 17 dog does as well! Right then, I told TJ, let’s have a go at a friendship then.

It was right around between the pummel and the obsessive licks to my face that I recognized the pup’s lineage. “By Saint Bernard, you’re a Yorkie! Wait, but not quite. There’s something else that I can’t quite pinpoint–” “Morkie! I’m a Morkie!” The pup, yet again, piped right in without raising a paw for permission.

He’s the napping sort of human as well, perfect mate for a canine like me. It had been a long road up until that day in the cages. But now, well like they say back home pups, no road is long with good company.
