Meet Henry.


Meet Henry.
Henry is a puggle. Half beagle/half pug.
When I got Henry, his estimated maximum weight was 15lbs. At his biggest he would be 15 pounds.
For the Hen dog, 15 pounds came and went.
He is now a respectable 35 pounds.
Many people refer to Henry in his lounging position as a "Loaf." With his paws tucked under his ample chin(s), he resembles a streamlined loaf of thick bakery bread.
When he visits his grandmother and grandfather in Tennessee, he shakes the house when he is on the top floor. He thunders across the wood floors, and can push the French doors open to take a dip in the pool.
Henry is, is the kindest way, a very husky dog. This isn't to say he is lazy. Mais non. D bought him an amazing dog pack so he can carry his own water, food, and supplies and hikes and camping trips. He loves going on runs with me in the afternoons, chasing tennis balls, and playing with his hedgehog. I am simply worried about his self-esteem. And his 17 chins.
