For an open topic, I have to choose my dog cappuccino! Cappuccino, or "Chino" is my best friend and my sister! being an only child was pretty tough growing up and I got lonely at times but on Christmas in second grade when I met her for the first time I knew my life changed. we got cappuccino when she was only 4 weeks old and I was 7 so we grew up together and I wouldn't trade it for the world. we named her cappuccino because she is a light brown color just like the coffee with some white on the top of her head and white paws. it kind of looks like she walked in froth! we are also a very Italian family so it was pretty on brand!  I bought Chino a backpack to ride in and I love it because I can take her everywhere I go! she tore her ACL but we love going on adventures so it was a great fix. she got surgery now but she still loves to ride in he backpack like the princess she is.
