the biggest fiasco of my life: my dog
FACT: We adopted Roux in San Diego. Her adoption papers say she came from Tijuana. The shelter we got her from called her Muon (alongside her siblings Lepton, Boson, and Quark.) In Mexico, she was called "Besitos #2."
THEORY: Roux's mother was a street dog, likely a pitbull, and her father was a bougie breeding dog called a Wire-Haired Pointing Griffon. This basically makes her the puppy of a gender-bent Lady and the Tramp.
