After being called a puppy his entire life, Izuku has finally given in to the urge and gotten one himself.

Was it a bad idea? ...Probably!

...Is he gonna keep the thing? 100%.

He can't help himself, okay? Having gone to a rescue and seeing the poor furry creature in the corner... his hero complex had kicked into overdrive. The next thing he knows, the green haired man is heading home with a book, dog food, treats, toys and the tiny thing itself.

A toy poodle, bichon frisé and border collie mix. Kiki was a tiny dog - just barely seventeen pounds and she looked almost like a panda. How could someone not want such a cutie?

However, Izuku may have bitten off more than he can chew. For such a small dog, she surely loved to run and explore the outdoors - forcing Izuku to take her on almost six long walks a day.

At least she was friendly, right?

Izuku definitely had no doubts about that. Taking her out on walks was impossible, since she'd hop up on her hind legs and attempt to escape to greet (read: lick) everybody who walked by. Cute, but tedious!

Today is much of the same. He's completed half of his regular walk in the spot by his apartment when Kiki sees another dog on its walk. Immediately, Izuku tenses and tries to hold her back, but Kiki's joy is too overwhelming, so he loses control on her leash and--

"AAH!" The poodle goes blasting after the other dog and its poor owner. "Kiki-- no! Come back! Bad girl! Aaah, sorry, sorry!---"
