Why Cardiff?

Are you a Communist? Why would you name your dog something weird like that?

This question comes up a lot. As I covered before, this originates in the name of a city in southern Wales:

 
  • I’ve never been there, but it’s come up in stories I’ve read and I’ve always liked the sound of it

  • I used to have a D&D character named after the same place

  • I’ll likely visit at some point, but it’s unlikely that my doggo will

  • There’s a castle there, which totally fits with her name: Cardiff Castle

Also, I’d like to say on behalf of Cardiff that she’s not a terror all the time. She’s actually super sweet and loves cuddles, doesn’t bark much, is actually smart, and loves meeting people. She occasionally terrorizes Japanese cities, but not all the time.

Here’s a little video as a thank you for reading this far
