Who’s the Best: Destro

This is the look you get when you dangle a toy above the camera.

Okay.  I wanted to name him “Bear.”  Makes much more sense.  “Destro” is apparently a “badass” character from G.I. Joe (Hasbro site found here).  I lose a little bit of my dignity every time I have to explain his name to someone.  It usually goes like this:

Confused Person: His name is Bestro? Astro?

Me: No. Nope.  Destro….DESSSSStro.

Confused Person: Distro?

Me: No. haha (totally fake laugh).

Confused Person: Gastro?

Me: No.  Actually that’s even….not close at all.  Although, strangely appropriate.  It’s D-E-S-T-R-O.  My husband named him.  It’s a G.I. Joe character or something.  I wanted to name him “Bear.”

Confused Person: Oh.  And…..what kind of dog is he?

Me: (ugh….here we go…) Well…

Destro is a mutt.  A M-U-T-T.  He’s smarter than I am and quite clever.  If he were less hairy, I may have married him.  He’s simply the best dog in the WORLD.  We have been told by a couple of vets that he is part Shar Pei and part Akita.  I believe it.  You probably won’t.  Do not hate on my “child.”
