 <\/p>\n

Hi! I’m Pops. My hobbies are sleeping, playing with squeak toys, and finding new ways to push my boundaries. I’m very good at that last one. Yeah, I use my cuteness to my advantage, but what else is a chiweenie to do?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hey, there. Name? It’s Max, but I only answer to it when it suits me. My favorite place to sleep is in the kitchen doorway, but my human housemates discourage that. Some nonsense about nearly tripping them. Most of the time, I settle for the couch. My favorite snacks are snap peas and apples. Got any handy?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As you can see, I’m outnumbered by canines. It’s annoying at times. They’re not very stealthy, and the bigger one drools when he sees a favorite food. Drools! Can you imagine? The smaller one competes with me for the good spots, like the armchair and the small animal beds. What am I called? I’m not ready to disclose my real name, so you may call me by my nickname–the Wild One. Why The Wild One, you ask? It has something to do with my mysterious past in a feral colony.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hey. Hey there. I’m speaking for everyone in the crabitat because my two buddies are under the sand molting. Please excuse the blurry picture. Kate has a lousy camera phone, and she doesn’t like to use the flash on our eyes. This month is our fourth year here, just the three of us. We’ve been promised an upgrade from our 40 gallon tank to a 75 gallon one. It will be a nice way to celebrate. That and a hard boiled egg. We love hard boiled eggs.<\/p>\n
