Coco has a small friend -- a full-grown Shih-Tzu named "Tristan" -- who's known her since she was four months old. Tristan is a neutered adult male (and less than one-third Coco's size), which is why I am surprised and shocked to see that his once-meek habits have clearly turned from friendly to blatantly amorous.

This afternoon's events started out as a lazy afternoon visit to a delightful older estate. Here sit Coco and Tristan, luxuriating in the shade, a stately mansion behind them:

It's probably fortunate for both of them that Tristan lacks the necessary equipment to procreate. Because if something did happen, not only would the progeny look a bit ridiculous, but what would I call them?

A Pit-Tzu?

A Shiht-Bull?

A Bull-Shiht?

(Damned if I'm not being dogged by definitions again.)
