Meet Miss Pickles

Muttropolitan Diarist: "What kind of dog is Pickles?"
Owner: "Part beagle, part pig."

Oh, I see.

Apparently many people assume Pickles is a boy because, according to the owner "Pickles is a boy's name." Who knew? Nine year-old Pickles is rather shy on the street, and quite skittish (she's a rescue dog) but doesn't hold back when it comes to eating whatever she can find on the sidewalk. "I should have named her Kirby," the owner said. "After the vacuum cleaner."
