Dongdi, the Dog of the Day
Name: Dongdi
Age: Fifteen months old
Gender: Male Breed: Siberian Husky
Home: North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
 
   Dongdi means Bronze coin in Chinese, precisely, in the Shanghai dialect, hometown of my grandmother (mother's side) and the famous NBA rookie Yao Ming. Naturally, we named our dog Dongdi because of his beautiful bronze fur. We got Dongdi from a local breeder. He is the second born of his litter and he was the most quiet and shy one... Until he became somewhere around eight months old, and he became a vocal, naughty puppy who likes to be dominant and challenging.

    What makes Dongdi a special dog is that he has a lot of personality. For example, when I said "No, bad puppy!" to stop him messing around, he'd walk to my mom or my aunt and starts "arrrwoooo" then stares at me. As if he is saying that "Mom! Dennis is bullying me again!" He is also a big coward. He'd actually hide underneath me when he was scared by the Halloween fireworks. Such a puppy. We love him!
