I'd Describe My Dog As…

Fat - he eats ANYTHING. He once ate a SOS pad which is a steel wool pad with soap we had to give him olive oil and we found out what he doesn't like. Everyone was covered in olive oil and even he was he need a bath which he'll only get one if my mom gets one with him - that's really funny to see. Except that we need one too.
