Likes:
His binky (a rubber barbell), having his big schnozz kissed, and nude sunbathing

Pet-Peeves:
Bigger dogs. They intimidate him.

Favorite Toy:
His binky - he carries that thing everywhere. Sometimes for funsies I hide it; he goes crazy looking for it. It's easy to mess with his fragile little mind.

Favorite Food:
Anything, everything. We found half a dog collar in his poop once. Lately he has taken to eating my underwear.

Favorite Walk:
He likes to walk me to my truck because he thinks he will be going for a ride.

Best Tricks:
His Chewbacca impression ... he rooooroooos when he's happy and when you scrath his butt. He knows seven hand signals and is as smart as a whip. He will also headbutt your crotch - it's his way of saying "Hello"!

Arrival Story:
Egg was 10 weeks old when he was relinquished to a shelter after his previous owners figured out that he is deaf. It was my lucky day! He is the light of my life.

Bio:
Eggie is a living testament to how wonderful - and easy! - a dog who "happens to be deaf" can be. An expert at reading body language. I lovelovelove this dog. Straight up crazy. Lots of laughter when Egg is around, mostly at his own expense. (Since everyone asks, he is named after a character in a John Irving novel. It doesn't hurt that he looks like an Egg.)

Forums Motto:
Where's my damn binky?! Roooooooooooooo!
