As everyone who has had a young puppy knows, there are few things more gratifying than watching your puppy chew on a safe, socially approved object like his marrow bone rather than the furniture, the rubber band you were certain you picked up and put in the trash, or the geriatric Collie.
After puppy class last Saturday, Rion and I met a four month old Miniature Schnauzer puppy. And having met that puppy, I doubt that Rion is 100% Miniature Schnauzer. The puppy class trainer thinks he is a schnauzer – poodle mix, which would make him a Schnoodle, if you believe in the so-called designer dogs. Since I don’t, I have decided he is a muzzle puff. The miniature schnauzer puppy had a lot of charm, and great ears and eyebrows, but Rion is cuter. And I am not biased, as some people have accused.
Elaine,
He is very cute and looks like he has grown a lot since the last picture I saw.

He is so adorable, Elaine. And I liked hearing about the training, etc. Chewing on collies is definitely unacceptable.
I’m probably a bit biased about the poodle xs. Think it’s what makes Orion such a cutie. And, best of all, he ought to be healthier in the long run!
