The official biography

Small dog.
Big personality.

Dog Unknown is a Chug — part Chihuahua, part Pug, and 100% convinced that she is a German Shepherd.

She's a very good girl who listens, wants to please, and apparently believes the couch is a launch pad. From a standing start, she can jump higher than a person's head.

She also loves going fanny packing: heading out for walks and adventures with her human.

I'm not a small dog. I'm a German Shepherd who happens to be compact.
