Introducing Chipper

March 6, 2006

chipper
(aka Chip, Chip-Chip, Microchip)

He’s half beagle, half poodle – a mix that breeders call “Poobie” or “Poogle” but I call “mutt.” I think it means he’s going to end up a shaggy beagle. He’s six pounds, 9 ounces (all in that fat puppy belly) and he’s the newest resident at MomnJohn’s house.

Likes: chewing, fuzzy tennis balls, chewing, shoes, chewing, naps, chewing, rawhide, chewing
Dislikes: not chewing, stopping chewing, the absence of chewing

We brought him home on Saturday. He’s been working those puppy toofs ever since. 😉

(other name suggestions were: Snoopy, Scraps, Tramp, Sooner (he’s from OK), Fang, Sam, Patch, Homer, Spot and Trebunskaya.)

    I shall call him Boodle.

    Or perhaps Beadle.

    You look 19 in the latest hostess shot. What’s going on there?

    I’m the anti-Dorian Gray. The hostess pics get younger looking, but in reality I look like Bea Arthur.
