Uncle Fred

In many ways, the inspiration for adopting Pappy came from his Uncle Fred, a poodly mutt belonging to my mother-in-law. When visiting Texas, old Fred becomes our devoted sidekick. He may look like a lamby poufta, but he's got the heart to go after muscle-bound dogs thrice his size. Ah, good times!

Though the physical resemblance to Pappy might not be obvious, they are both lanky, medium-sized dogs with long snouts. Shave them, dye them the same color, and they could be twins.
