White Fang

My pet dog is named White Fang. He has beautiful blue eyes and he is very nice. He likes to dig and is very smart. He has lots of hair and always smells good. He lets me know when he has to use the bathroom by howling. He is a full blooded Siberian Husky. I got him at a dog sale in Topeka. I like to play Frisbee with him and I also like to take him for walks. He's five years old.
