Have I told you how Chino didn't know how to play? He lived three years at a kennel, well treated and well loved, but learned no social skills. He is so thrilled to have a good owner now, and all he wants is to be touched and loved, but we were all concerned that he didn't know how to play. He would watch Gypsy with a quizzical look, but when we would toss him a toy, it would "bonk" off his forehead and he would just stare at it. Sometimes we'd put a toy in his mouth, and he would just let it fall out. Like I say...no skills. Well, finally he seems to have the hang of it, and just look at his tail wag as he manages to get the cookie out of the ball. What a goof!

What a mouth!

Chino being happy because he is being touched (in his nice Christmas bowtie) Never have I met a dog who wants nothing more than a gentle human touch. What a loveable beast.
