I can be a rebel. Today I’m rebelling just a little on my Dogs Without Blogs feature with a post from Shauna, blog author of Fido & Wino<\/a> and human to Kayloo and Mickey. When Shauna first contacted me, I thought she had two dogs named Fido and Wino (like I had been dipping into a bit of the Wino…) When I read some of Shauna’s posts, I realized my error and discovered that she’s funny and caring and on a mission. Let’s meet her and her sweet dogs, shall we?

\"\"<\/a>
:: Monster and Kay-noodle ::<\/figcaption><\/figure>What is your dog’s name?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nI have 2 dogs: Mickey (the little brown one) and Kayloo (the black & white one)
\n
\nWhat breed of dog do you have?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nMickey is a chihuahua\/terrier cross & Kayloo is a pit bull\/collie cross of some sort
\n
\nHow old is your dog?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nMickey is just over 2 and Kayloo is 1 yr 9 months
\n
\nWhere did you get your dog (pound, rescue, breeder)?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nWe (ignorantly) got Mickey from a broker and it was after that experience we learned about the importance of pet adoption and rescue. Several months later when we decided to get Mickey a buddy, we found Kayloo through Petfinder.com
\n
\n
\"\"<\/a>
:: Monkey Head, Shauna and Princess Puppy Pants ::<\/figcaption><\/figure>What nicknames do you call your dog?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nMickey: Mick-a-roo, Monster, Monkey Head, Mickles
\nKayloo: Princess Puppy Pants, Kay-noodle, Pretty Girl, Kay-da-loo-da-loo
\n
\n
\"\"<\/a>
:: Mickles ::<\/figcaption><\/figure>What words does your dog understand?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nI am NOT kidding. YOU KNOCK IT OFF RIGHT NOW.
\n
\nWhat is the best thing you’ve taught your dog?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nMickey does a wicked “Buddha” (basically it’s sitting pretty); we teach Kayloo “get out of the kitchen” every day
\n
\nAre you the leader of your pack?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nYou bet your boots.
\n
\"\"<\/a>
:: Kay-da-loo-da-loo, Mick-a-roo and their Pack Leader ::<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nHow does your dog make you laugh?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nMickey sits and stares at me when he wants something (food, to go outside etc.) Kayloo… runs into walls… gets giddy and does this crazy horse rearing thing all random times.
\n
\nWhat toy(s) would you recommend to other dog owners?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nKong’s stuffed with pumpkin & frozen over night. Occupies the little turkeys forever. Da. Bomb.
\n
\"\"<\/a>
:: Pretty Girl ::<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\n
\nWhat is the most annoying behavior your dog exhibits?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nMickey: Barking when he hears a leaf drop 18 blocks away. Kayloo: Licking and licking and licking and licking…
\n
\nDoes your dog wear anything fashionable?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nMy dogs go commando.
\n
\nHas your dog ever destroyed anything in your home?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>

\n
\nWhat do you love most about your dog?<\/span><\/strong><\/em>
\nMy dogs remind me not to take myself so seriously. And that peanut butter is really awesome and should be given the proper respect it deserves.
\n

\"\"<\/a>
:: ROARSquad ::<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nCalling attention to the importance of rescue is really important to me. I’ve started a project called the R.O.A.R. Squad: The whole idea is to make adopting a rescue THE coolest thing around.

\nI know a lot of readers here are rescues, so please stop by Shauna’s blog and support R.O.A.R. And I love a little Kong pumpkin for your pumpkins – I’m going to have to try that! Thank you for sharing Kayloo and Mickey, Shauna. Best of luck with your mission!
