Hogan has a beautiful coat and gorgeous coloring; It's very silky and smooth. Definitely has chihuahua in him, but hes a bit larger and has a long coat. My guess is that he's a "cheagle": long-haired chihuahua and beagle mix. Hogan loves to play and is the dominant of the two. Tug of war is his favorite game so far. He also loves going for walks. In fact, when you say "leash," he'll go get his. But, his love for walking doesn't translate into the best walking manners, so he'll need to work on that. He just gets so excited that he can't contain his energy and wants to race down the sidewalk. Hogan is very alert and I suspect very smart; he'd be a great agility dog!
Finland (Finn for short) is a bit more reserved. He's a puppy, but doesn't seem to have much experience actually being a puppy. He's a bit cautious about everything at first, but once he watches Hogan, he seems to follow suit. He's quite the love bug; he's definitely more of a lap dog and wants human attention in the form of petting: "Why are you trying to get me to fetch a ball? I just want to be cuddled!" Finn enjoys his bones and loves treats. I have a feeling he'll be easy to train with how incentivized by treats he is!
Neither seems to know how to use stairs, which I won't be teaching them just yet (since I'd like to keep them out of cat litter box territory). They both ate well today, although Finn would only eat if I fed him by hand- He better not get used to this type of royal treatment!
