Kiki, the Dog of the Day
Name: Kiki
Age: Three years old
Gender: Female Breed: Papillon
Home: Bayville, New Jersey, USA
 
   Kiki is the world's most amazing dog. And the only way to make a Kiki is to add the brains of a Border Collie with the loyalty of a Lab, and throw in the nose of a blood hound! (No really, she found my hamster when it got out of it's cage, but it was through the wall since she wasn't allowed in the room we actually found it in. My Dad searched in that room while Kiki went to the wall adjacent to the room, sniffing the wall right behind where my Dad found him.)

    She opens and closes my brother's bedroom door when she wants to go in or leave, and gives me a high and low five when we do something awesome. She knows some Spanish (corre, camina, den la vuelta), and I'm pretty sure she is telepathic too. My dad was cutting off a part of his steak that he wasn't going to eat because it was burnt and fatty, and was planning to give it to her, but didn't say a word about it. Seemingly out of the blue she gets up from laying in her spot on the floor and sits by his chair looking up at him. She knew! She also knows that 1 + 1 = 2 as she will hit my hand twice, but we stopped doing math because no one likes math, even Papillons.

    She knows everyone she has met by name, except for myself who she knows as Mommy. She knows Dan (my brother), Joe or Joey (My other brother), Jay (yet another brother), Grandpa (my Dad), Grandma (my mom), Jaws (My Pit Bull--who gets beaten up by her, just for the record), Buddy (My Black Lab Mix--he adores her), Dakota (My dad's friend's dog--she doesn't like him, he's a nervous freak), Slapshot (our hamster who isn't afraid of Kiki the least bit), and she knows that everything she can chase is called either a Cat, Squirrel, or Chipmunk. She also knows that the things that she always chases but for some reason cannot catch this time are called Kitty cats.

    She knows what is going to happen when I say "food" "walk" "bath" "sleep (sometimes seep)" "out" "potty" or "treat."

   She is the most amazing dog ever.

   And I love her!
