[中文版本]
My family has a dog named Remy. He is a purebred Maltese, and he just turned two! His fur is snowy white, and his eyes are hazel brown. His ears are soft, and the fur around his nose forms a round shape, resembling a cartoon character. He also has short legs and tiny paws. He’s a little guy, so he’s not very big—he weighs about seven pounds.
I’ve noticed that Remy doesn’t like taking baths. That’s because he doesn’t like the feeling of water getting into his nose, and he dislikes water in general. However, he loves going on walks and meeting new friends. We’ve also noticed his favorite food is chicken, and he loves gnawing on bones. One thing my family finds frustrating about Remy’s behavior is that he’ll beg for a bone, hide it somewhere, come back to ask for another, and then secretly stash all the bones in one spot. Since Remy keeps going back to my dad for more bones, my dad thinks he’s eaten them all, not knowing that the bones are secretly stashed away around the house. My family and I often find bones in random places, like the laundry room and the bathroom.
As I continue observing Remy, I’ve found that he tries to act tougher and stronger than he really is in front of other dogs. For example, when I take him for a walk and he sees a larger dog, he’ll bark loudly and even stand on his hind legs to look bigger. But the truth is, he’s scared of the bigger one—he’s just trying to get them to take him seriously. This usually only happens with bigger dogs. If Remy wants to play with a smaller dog, he doesn’t need to act tough because they’re the same size. Interestingly, Remy never barks at home—he’s always quiet and calmly stays by our side.
Even though Remy has many different traits—some good, some bad—my family and I still love him very much. We hope Remy stays a part of our family for many more years!
