* * * * * * *

Pinocchio: Who let dat stray write on MY profile?!

Editor: Cool it, Pinny. He didn't state many negative things. (In a whispered voice: mainly because there's too much of it....)

Pinocchio: Sorry?! What did you say?

* * * * * * *

Pinocchio Likes: Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, boasting, baths, his owner, Marcus, his family, his little pink boots, his light blue collar, his soap, his shampoo, playing fetch with his owner, silk cushions, talking with the "Upper Class", using long hard words (words that Simon does not know)

Pinocchio Dislikes: Simon annoying him, Simon playing tricks on him, when Marcus spends time with Simon, when Simon plays with Marcus, Simon's socks, when Marcus consantanly repeats his name over and over again, getting dirty, mud, bins, rubbish, having his nails clipped, being ignored, Simon in general....

Pinocchio Fears: Bins (not only because of the stench, but also because he is afraid that Simon will jump out of one of them); the town of Nenana (because of rumours which state that wild, crazy native dogs live there)

Pinocchio Dreams: of chocolate, and becoming the leader (he calls it "King" ) of all the dogs in Nome

Personality:  Sly, social, witty, rude, arrogant, possessive over what is (and isn't) his, protective over Marcus (just because he doesn't want his brother hang around Simon and mix with the strays of Nome), 

boastful, conceited.....

* * * * * * * 

Pinocchio: Hey! Enough of the negative, please! >:|

Stray Dog: Okay, okay, I'm leaving it off....

 * * * * * * *

Personality Contiued: Pinocchio is kindly towards his sibling, Marcus, and tries to give him the best of everything (he wants Marcus to follow his influence and be a high-class dog), but he believes that his wish might not be fulfilled whenever Marcus plays with Simon the stray. Pinocchio can sometimes be very knowledgeable when it comes to maths, sience and dog-art.

History (By Pinocchio)

I was born in Nome, Alaska in the year 1923 into a litter of six, (Father: Spook Arlington. Mother: Peggy Lee Arlington) of which I was the oldest, Pinocchio. R. Arlington. 

When I was one year old, my owner took my parents, siblings and I on a family trip; we went to a Nome Race. It was boring for me. The only thing that interested me was getting the famous dog, Steele's, autograph, but I couldn't find him anywhere. My siblings seemed to like the races though. I don't know about Marcus. He was not even looking at the races, his weeny eyeballs were staring most of the time at a stray, in a interested manner. The stray was white with huge golden patches on his back and head.

Marcus went up to meet the stray, and I followed secretly (did you not know that I am a master of hiding?). Marcus introduced himself, and so did the other dog; he said his name was Simon, and enquired if Marcus was enjoying the races. They talked for ages, and I could hear my owners calling Marcus and my names.

"You'd better go, I can hear your owner," said Simon. Just before Marcus was about to walk away the stray asked. "May I come and visit you tomorrow, please?" And Marcus nodded ... and told him where our house was!

"Thanks," said Simon. "Oh, and if you don't mind, could your tell you friend - or brother to not spy, please? I saw him following you here."

He had spotted me! I was fuming all the way home!

The next day Simon came to visit Marcus (at the time I was in the living room painting on a huge canvas, sitting pretty on a red velvet cusion). When I saw Simon I flipped (literally), and with one paw covered in red paint and the other paw bluw, I chased Simon round the whole house. The owner was angry and I was scolded ):o

After that I try to avoid Simon, but he keeps visiting our house so it's terribly hard!
