My new dog,
Supi

Here’s the new
dog:
I adopted her from the animal shelter in
the next county over. She’s four months
old. They told me she’s a border
collie/Jack Russel Terrier mix. She
definitely has a lot of energy and can run
for four miles straight without opening her
mouth to breathe. Let’s just say she’s in
better shape than me right now. We run
every morning, though, so hopefully I’ll be
able to challenge her more effectively over
time.
Her name is Supi. I originally wanted to
call her Suki because of
this commercial. Go
ahead and take 30 seconds. It’s one of
my favorite commercials.
So her name was Suki. I told Sapphira, and
Sapphira called her Suki about five times,
then started calling her Supi. I thought
she must know something I don’t, so we call
her Supi now.
Turns out Supi is a Finnish word that means
“raccoon dog”. Good job, Sapphira.
