            I adopted Inky in January 
              1992 from a pet store in Kenosha, Wisconsin. I went into the pet 
              store to purchase food for my lizards Ronald Reagan and George Bush 
              and my goldfish Tip O'Neill (my political pets as I referred to 
              them) and I walked out of the store's door with Inky. I forgot the 
              food for my other friends. We've been best friends ever since. 
               Inky has traveled and/or lived in eight states, so you can say 
                he is a cosmopolitan puppy. He is also an accomplished soccer 
                player and would make a great defender for the Chicago Fire soccer 
                team. I am certain that if he couldn't get the ball passed the 
                opposing team, he would use other skillful tactics like kissing 
                them to death. He loves jerky treats, cookies, flowers, the Animal 
                House Pet store, sleeping, and cuddle time. Although he loves 
                his doctor, Dr. J.B. Bruederle, he doesn't like it when Dr. Bruederle 
                clips his paw nails and cleans out his fuzzy ears. For a little 
                fella, he can be quite cantankerous at the doctor's office.
