A Real Live Scooby-Doo


Mojo is our 15 month old dog. He was an only child and he grew up with us since birth. He is very amusing since it would seem that he already thinks of himself as more human than dog, much like Scooby-Doo, who also looks a bit like him- big and brown with floppy ears. He also shares the same temperament, sweet but definitely not courageous when it comes to loud sounds. He would shake all over and hide between our legs during a thunderstorm, and we even needed to sedate him once when there was a firework display in our subdivision.  He's also very choosy at times since he would not even eat his food if it is placed on his water bowl instead of his food bowl, even if both are clean and practically alike.

All the same, our Mojo is a great companion. He prefers to eat whatever it is that we're eating, whether it's lettuce, apple, corn, or cheese. He also loves to end his meals with something sweet. He's quite easy to talk to, though he'd sometimes answer back in an amusing way. He's also very gentle as he allows himself to be poked and prodded and seems to think of it as a game. Truly, there is no one like him. Mojo is the greatest dog ever.
