Everybody Loves Lennu

Everybody Loves Lennu

For Dog People
By Kiki Kane

Share473Tweet0Pin It0

Meet Finland’s first dog, a Boston Terrier named Lennu. He’s sweet, charming, and always dressed to the nines in his sharp little tuxedo. When Daily Beast reporter Kelly Weill shared a photo of Lennu on Twitter, the response was overwhelming. In a time of political upheaval, a mischievous and happy little fellow like Lennu gives world politics some much-needed comic relief.

 

Kelly Weill broke the Lennu story wide open on Twitter

Lennu is a charming and a bit mischievous

The video is from an annual holiday event where food and produce from all over Finland are ceremonially presented. Poor Lennu found it all too tempting.

 

His handshake is definitely a 10
