Don’t Piss Zak Off, You Won’t Like Him When He’s Mad
We used to have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and her name was Leisha. She was a beautiful dog with the best temperament and the family loved her. Unfortunately when she was about ten years old she developed cancer and we had to put her to sleep.
After Leisha I didn’t really want another dog, but once my daughter got over her grief she begged for another pet and so we acquired Zak. Zak was completely different from Leisha, where Leisha was a pure breed Zak was half Maltese and half Shitzu. Where Leisha was calm and love-able Zak had a bit of a temperament, but my daughter loved him all the same.
The thing with Zak was he was adorable when he as in a good mood, but your wouldn’t want to get him angry, because you just wouldn’t like him if you made him mad. You see if you piss Zak off he would turn from a love-able dog into Zak The K-9 Hulk!

Just kidding he’s adorable no matter what. He got this way by rolling around in the wet grass after I mowed the lawn. This was what he looked like after he saw his reflection in the mirror, before that he looked like this.

Of course. I have much more fun teasing the wife, even though it sometimes gets me into trouble.

He looks pretty happy in that second picture. My Westy isn’t allowed to roll around in the grass like that. Mostly because my mom would kill me if she ever saw him looking that green.

Thanks V Guy. I had to change your name as you did not follow to the comment policy, but I did leave the link. Strangely enough he wasn’t green for long as somehow he managed to clean himself up within half an hour.

Cute dog…surprising, because I’ve heard that dogs tend to look like their owners…nothing personal mate!

Why thanks TAM, if I looked as cute as ZAK I reckon I would rope in those sheilas no worries at all

Oh my goodness, he’s so cute. And he’s a Mal-shi… that is my dream dog! I have been wanting one for years. He looks so cute with the grass, almost like he’s in camouflage.

Is Mal-shi a proper term, because it is it would make it so much easier telling people exactly what Zak is. As for cute, you should see him when the groomer is through with him.

I’m pretty sure it is… it’s one of the designer breeds / hybrids. I want to have mine with short hair all the time so it looks like a little cotton puff!

That’s one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen, Sire. And I’m also glad it’s not my dog, because I’d hate to be the one trying to figure out how to grab him and get him into the tub for a good cleaning.

Actually Mitch, I don’t know how he did it but he managed to clean himself.

I think I’d want to know, Sire. I mean, small as he is, I can only think of a couple of ways he could have done it, neither all that pleasant.

Too late now mate, it’s all done and dusted. However he did it he did it pretty quickly. I went and put the camera back and when I came outside he was clean?

Doggone Zac! He’ll go for your ankles.

He looks cool. My son wants me to buy a dog for him, but I live in a flat so it would not be fair on the dog. Maybe one day when I get my own place.

Awesome. Except that grass doesn’t come off that easily. Did he get his original color back?

He did and it was almost in the blink of an eye. I don’t know how he did it so quickly, perhaps he’s a magical dog?

A green magical dog? Maybe you could have him perform on television. I’m sure you could make a nice buck from that ;)

Yep, but I doubt he will ever repeat the process. I reckon it will always remain a mystery.

This is such a cute story. I love the pics of him after you mow the lawn. Priceless!
[Reply]
Thanks Jen, I’m glad you liked the story.

I like your dog, he is adorable. No wonder why your kid love him. You know what, I remember my father told me way back that how your pet look like will reflect the personality of the owner. If the pet is clean and well-groomed, that means the owner is neat too. And according to him, those people who have pets are good people because they give tender love to pets who are suppose to be homeless if not for their care.

Marcy, your father sounds like a very smart man and thank you so much for your comment.

Sire’s softer side? Cute dog. The little dogs have quite the bark, lol.

That is an adorable picture. It is tough to imagine Zak getting upset when he looks that cute in the pictures above. I can imagine that was fun cleaning him off as well.
[Reply]
Thanks George, as for cleaning him off, I’m still trying to work out how he did it.
[Reply]
He looks so adorable! Can’t belive he’s capable of being as mean as you make it sound.
