Frank,

or, The Boston Terrier Formerly Known As Shaquille.

Frank almost made me late today!  He insisted on seeing me off, but he wasn't ready yet!

I'm not really sure if I have eye contact with him. Hehe.

Papa teaching him to walk on a leash so he can see me off.  Note the hesitation.

Waving goodbye.

We never thought we would have a dog like this.  By 'like this' I mean 'snoutless" with large eyes, and almost no tail.  We really don't find Frank's breed "gwapo" and we say "ampanget!" whenever we see him (or talk about him).  But I think that's going to change--he's growing on us already, and we're getting used to the idea of having a dog like him as part of the family.  How large is his new family?  Well we already have two doxies, a yellow-white labrador, a golden retriever, a lab-retriever cross, two aspins, two rats, two bettas, five goldfish, a black and an albino catfish, and around thirteen (regular) cats.  So as you can see, we have our hands full already--but then came the gift that is four-month-old Frank, and we really couldn't refuse.  Look at those eyes.  Haha.  Well, his breed is good with kids and other pets, so I guess he's a keeper!  :)
