how I got my name.

chickie aka chicken seems like a strange name for a little dog, but their is a funny story behind how I got my name.

I am very inquisitive, and I once came across and ants nest and could not resist sticking my nose in for a good sniff.

I just wanted to play but the ants clearly did not feel the same way and they climbed all over me and bit me.

which left me covered in little red spots. This was before I came to live with my mum and dad, when I was at the lady who rescued me's house.

the bites left me covered in little red spots that looked like chicken pocks and that was it they had a name for me, Chicken, which over time got lengthened to chickie, which is much cuter.

I now don't trust bugs and if i see any on my territory within reach i chase them and try to eat them.

its a great game.

Other games I like to play are fetch, and the digging game where my mum holds her hand just above my head and i roll over and dig away with my little paws at her hand, I also dig when i want her attention.

and i like it when she waves her hand and/ or toys around on the floor and lets me pounch on them. The picture is of me playing fetch with Harley and hooch, harley has the ball as he is very quick but sometimes hooch steals it by diving into harley and knocking it out of his mouth, hooch is a big rough like that he doesnt mean to be he is just very clummsy.

I prefer playing one on one with mum because i am not as fast as them and I have a short attention span, so can get distracted easily.
