Tuna the Chiweenie & Pet Connect – Friday, March 6, 2015

Tuna the Chiweenie has an Intsagram account and more than a million fans on social media. Born with a pronounced overbite and a recessed jaw line. His personality is charming and people are captivated by him.

Courtney Dasher, Tuna’s mom, had the plan to foster Tuna but 6 months later, she adopted him as her own. Courtney says Tuna brings her a lot of joy and she created an Instagram for Tuna to give others joy.

  

Courtney uses social media to spread awareness about rescuing animals. The book “Tuna Melts My Heart,” which Courtney wrote goes through a day in the life of Tuna. It starts with him waking up, going to bed, and all the adventures in between. Tuna enjoys going to the beach, car rides, and sleeping.

Tuna also has a Twitter and Facebook to spread more joy to people.

Researchers at Yale University are trying to figure out what dogs are thinking. They run many different tests to look at dogs behavior to see how they communicate with people and objects.
