Hello. I am TicTac To. I am a beagle, but adopted by Chinese parents, so I suppose that means I'm a cheangle. So I think I'm considered cheanglinese?
Please don't make fun of my name. My mom thought it would be hilarious because of our last name "To." (She really has fun with the last name. She wants to name the next dog "Burry"). But she's just that way because she has a really cool name. Dina Wong. I mean, what's wrong with a name like that? And as they say, Wong's always right. At least, that's how it goes in our house.
But I have to say, my dad's name is even odder. It rhymes. Joe To. When we asked Mama and Papa To why they gave my dad a rhyming name, they said "What, it doesn't rhyme! Joseph To!" Evidently, they didn't hang around many elementary schoolyards back then to know that it wasn't going to take Einstein (one of their neighbors in Princeton) to shorten that name to JoeTo. Or, as my cousins Gillian and Jessica used to call him, Uncle JoeTo. I don't think they knew that it was 2 separate words.
I'm a SCFB (that's Single Cheanglinese Female Beagle). I'm currently 12.5 pounds, I'm about shin-high, I live in San Francisco, California, and I like long walks in the Presidio, candlelit dinners (not too close to my ears, please) of pupperoni and kibble, and licking your face (if you'll let me).
Anyway, this is my first post and it's friggin hard to type with paws so I'll sign off now. But just so you know, I plan to tell you about all the going-ons in the To household in this blog.

Okay, that picutre is soooo ridiculously cute! I can't wait to read more about you (oh, and your parents too!)
Okay, I not only recognize myself at the White House, but I recognize my rug pre-pee. Don't worry Tic-Tac, Aunty Deb and the girls love you and just ask your cousin Jessie about that peeing at the wrong time thing. Let's just say it runs in the family.
