What are his/her unique personality characteristics?
His unique characteristics. Well, he’s got really pointy toes, and he seems to blow out booties quicker than the rest. We have to be ready for that number.
What is that litter’s “theme” name?…and other siblings’ names from that litter?
The dog’s name’s Astro. I named the whole litter after the way the breeding happened. So I had a handler named Hunter who drove an Astrovan. Well, he’s a Safari, but Astro’s a better name, to Knik for breeding at Barb’s house. And then Hunter, that guy looked like Elmer Fudd, so I got an Elmer.
What is his/her Bloodlines?
Dog’s bloodline, just like all mine. They’re all from Beamer. She made all my dogs. So that one’s Beamer and Bison. No, that’s not one of the inbred ones. I think that covers your humor aspect.
