My Dog Khan

The Great Khan
Here is a picture of Khan I took just today, if you compare it to the previous picture I posted you can see he's grayed up quite a bit. His black "socks" as we used to call his feet are now white socks. He's now got white markings on his face that make him look perpetually apologetic.
His name Khan is from the conqueror Genghis Khan. It's all in jest; he is one of the sweetest dogs in the world. And even though his name is not from Star Trek we do sometimes yell "KHAAN" like Captain Kirk.
The Dog
This is Khan! He is a Belgian Malinois, a distant cousin to the German Shepard. We got him as a puppy fourteen years ago. The breeder who had him made her living on show dogs and couldn't use him because he had a hernia and was going to put him down. The breeder offered him to my mom and said that she only had to pay for his shots and his hernia surgery. As a puppy he had endless energy, chewing through anything he could get his teeth on. Today he lives with us, graying and not nearly as energetic as he was when he was a puppy but a good dog nonetheless.
