Welcome, Paco! Give him 3 firm pats on the head from me.

Paco would love a taco I think

Would be great if he could free america just like that from the tyranny.

Maybe we need Paco eat taco instead of some plumber brothers

Looks almost exactly like my Boudicca, they could be siblings! Paco is amazing

But she kept the floppy ears 🥺

Paco had one floppy ear and the other was standing up his first year :D

Is her name Boudicca cause she does the stompy stomps if you scratch her back?

[–] Hazmatastic@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

She doesn't do the stompy stomps when she gets scratches, she does it in protest when we stop. Usually accompanied by vocal protest as well. She's gotten very pushy about being the one who dictates the end of scritches. Her butt and back are her favorite spots. She immediately turns around after the petting starts, even when shes just been groomed.

The name is just because being named after a warrior queen seemed badass.

Oddly enough, I had another dog many years ago who also looked almost identical, Callie. One of her ears flopped down after adolescence but the other never did. I always lovingly made fun of her for being lopsided. The resemblance was a complete coincidence, no relation or anything.
