h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

A landed in Erie, Pennsylvania, today.

It dropped off Lola, the Shorkie.

We took her home. We now have a small, salt and pepper dog. The dog is MUCH smaller than the s, who nonetheless are in hiding from the alien menace.

We weighed her: 4.5 pounds of trouble. She's a Christmas gift from a sister.

Traveller in Time always curious about aliens
"Congratulations on taking an alien refugee

Now only to find out who they accept as their leader "

Shorkie ? somebody been cross breeding with a Yorkie terrier ?

Yep. Shih Tzu and Yorkie mix.

yuckYorkshire with a Chinese slang

She's cute. And she's all over the place.

Yorkies are like drowned rats
We are the largest county in the country and have to have the smallest feeblest dog as our breed - it's disgraceful and demeaning

they even scare themselves when they bark

They think they're big dogs. So does this one. She thinks she's BIG...

I joke with folk and say that a Yorkie once killed a German Shepard (Alsation) ......it got stuck in it's throat and it choked to death

no disrespect to animals of course

This German did not feel disrespected by post 9

I've never seen a Shorkie before, so I googled. They're cool.

Yeah, she's sort of amazing. But we need a t-shirt on her to sort out which is the front end.

The worst dogs for that are those small white Maltese ones. They are like Bactrian camels with no head and a hump at each end.

Indeed.

Also, Lola is busy teaching us the meaning of the words 'lap dog'. It means, 'Sit, human. I need a LAP.'
