This is my dog Aurora. She lives at my parents’ house in Illinois. As you can see, she is very stubborn! Most American Eskimos are. She and I have a lot in common, aside from our obstinate natures.
She is a bad dog, which makes me like her because she has more personality that way. This mirrors my preference for the “bad” kids as students (they’re always more hilarious) and bad boys (they’re so cool!)
One summer I gave her a bath and used some shampoo for white dogs that turned out to be a bit defective—it turned her purple. This is like the time I tried to dye my hair blue in eighth grade and ended up dying my entire body blue in the process. Silly Manic Panic!
This past spring, I cut my hair shorter than it’s ever been since middle school. Aurora also experienced a bit of a change—my parents had her whole body shorn like a spring lamb. Now she resembles a large cat. I have to say, my haircut was a bit more successful.
