Kahlu is a Maltese Pomeranian Yorkie mix and originally belonged to my cousin; I watched him for a week while my cousin went out of town for a cruise. And ever since then, Kahlu & I have been best buds.
That first week with him was the best week - took him to the pet store & got LOTS of treats & toys for him, took him to the groomers, let him sleep with me on my bed (instead of his kennel), took him to the dog park - everywhere I went, I took him too.
Eventually my cousin let me have him b/c he simply didn't have as much free time with him as I was able to provide. He & Winston (my other Yorkie mix) both will be turning 9 this year - every year I throw a BBQ doggy birthday party & invite all their friends.
Kahlu is a very sweet LOOKING dog but he's feisty just like me. He's very protective of me - he cant stand for someone to play fight with me without putting himself in between us...and his loyalty is all about me. And he does not like being taunted - for some reason he hates feet so if you're wiggling your feet in front of him, watch out!
He might come across as mean, but once he gets use to u, he's very sweet & loving. He likes to act like a prince, he must feel some kind of entitlement when he's with me to always be in my arms; also he likes to prop himself on a pillow, or pile of fresh-out-of-the-dryer clothes.
He's a tough little guy but sometimes his bark is louder than his bite (LOL!). I never thought of myself as the dog-owner type - but being with Kahlu makes being a dog owner so much fun! I'll take another replica of Kahlu anyday! :D
