This dog and his owner live in my neighborhood. Although I've never seen them in person, I saw Pee-Wee's photo on the front page of the community newspaper a few months ago. At first I thought, "Holy Crap, did someone run over this dog with a truck?" But after reading the article about Pee-Wee and his owner Kristin, I actually started to think that he's pretty cute.

Here's his bio from PeeWeeMartini.com:
Pee Wee is a 2 year old Chinese Crested / Japanese Chin mix. I'm pretty sure he was a mistake. When I saw him in the pet store, I knew we belonged to each other. He has no teeth on the left side of his mouth so his tongue sticks out all day long. For whatever reason, he can not stick his tongue out the front or right side of his mouth. His nose/jaw is also terribly crooked for reason I am not aware of. When he was a puppy it was straight. It just kind of grew that way. He has a natural Mohawk. Pee Wee likes hanging out with his sister Lily and brother Eddie (when he feels like being nice). He likes pickles, ice cream, carrots, pickled tomatoes, bananas, string beans, broccoli, and the occasional cat turd. He likes long walks in the cemetery. He loves his Grandma, Grandpa, Nanny, Uncle Joe, Great Uncle Joe, and Sam very much. He likes really big dogs. He made best friends with a 275 lb Mastiff. He is silly and loves attention. He is an angel, the sweetest dog you could ever meet. In November 2005 I entered him in Regis and Kelly's funniest looking dog in America contest. He won. He received a $500 gift card to PetSmart.

You can tell that his owner loves him SO much, and it makes me very happy.
