We have a two year old Silky Terrier named Berkeley. Silkys are cousins to Yorkshire Terriers, but they get a bit bigger. Berkeley is about 8 pounds now. Originally my wife wanted to get him and I was against it, but she convinced me and now she’s mad because the dog likes me more than he does her!

Well, that’s an understatement. I can’t go anywhere in the house without him following me and he sleeps next to me at night. He also can’t stand it when I leave the house, or basically do anything where he can’t see me. It’s like having a kid, but one I can keep in a kennel when I’m at work. ;-)

For Halloween my wife and I are planning on dressing as Leia and Han, and I’m considering making a bandolier so he can be mini-Chewie. I’ll take pictures and post them to the inevitable Halloween thread.
