Oshki as Harley Quinn

Every family has that person who will stop what they’re doing no matter what and come defend a loved one from a potential enemy 4 times their size - that’s Oshki in a nutshell, but usually it’s a bear in a nature show on TV or a monster in a movie on Netflix. When we got her from the Oklahoma City animal shelter she had been returned by several families and we were her last hope. For the first year or two she barked at the wind, at leafs, at nothing in the corner of a room. These days she sticks mostly to barking at the TV, which she REALLY enjoys watching when she’s not napping back in the bedroom to get some downtime.

It’s because of her propensity to go ballistic at random things, clearly to protect us now that we’re her crew, that she was painted as the Joker’s former girlfriend Harley Quinn. Like Harley she’s intelligent, she’s had quite a past, and she fancies herself both an agent of chaos and a protector of the people she becomes fond of.
