This week is the last week of Pet’s Gone Wild!  To finish off this blog we have Mugna Kay.  Mugna Kay belongs to ninth grader Megan Streightiff.  She is a pug and terrier mix.  She weighs 14 pounds and is 12 inches tall.

The name Mugna Kay is very special to Megan.

“When I was little my cousin told me stories and Mugna Kay was one of the main characters,” Streightiff said.

She is a very special dog to Megan.

“I taught her to climb the tree in our backyard,” Streightiff said.

She is a very good house hold pet.

“She absolutely loves attention,” Streightiff said.  “She also plays with a ball three times her size,” Streightiff said.

She can also be a pain.

“She curls up in small spaces and sometimes we can’t find her,” Streightiff said.

She is also very family and kid friendly.

“She is a small dog and good at cuddling,” Streightiff said.

These types of dogs need very good care.  They need to be washed a couple times a month.

“I wash Mugna Kay every other week,” Streightiff said.

They also need to be walked every day.

“I take her out on walks every day, she loves the outside,” Streightiff said.
