I think that’s true.
We had to choose our dog out of a litter.
When deciding, the facial features of one dog in particular looked similar to our family.
So because of these features we decided to add him to our family.
When choosing a name for him, there was no easy way to decide. We decided to call him Kylo, which had no meaning but was one of the first names we came up with.
He is black with white and brown spots but when he was younger, he had more brown spots and was very shy.
Kylo is a playful puppy and a quick learner. He already knows more than seven commands, such as sit, drop, high-five, shake and more.
He’s only nine months old.
He loves squeaky toys and always tries to get the squeaker out.
His favourite spot to hang out is on all of our family members’ beds to look out the window.
His favourite thing to do is tug-o-war.
Although he is still treat-motivated, he has a bright future as he is a great jumper and fetcher.
Kylo is terrified of storms, big vehicles and high-vis; he barks loudly and shakes.
He is raised by a family of six and always has someone to play with.
An awesome car traveller, he loves going to Geelong to play with his golden retriever friend Astra, a family dog owned by our aunt who lives there.
Astra is four years old and finds it hard to keep up with Kylo’s energy.
Typical of puppies, Kylo still bites and scratches, but is getting better.
Does your dog look like you?
