dash

My name is Dash, and I am 14 weeks old. I am a male Havanese puppy, belonging to the family of Dogs called Bichons. The French word Bichon Frise means "fleecy dog" or "curly lap dog," and I love to observe what is going on around me. The Havanese have a long reputation of being circus dogs, probably because we learn quickly and enjoy doing things for people. We are smart, loving dogs, and I like to follow my "mom" around everywhere.

My name was given to me because I like to Dash down the hallway and wait for someone to chase me. I also love to chase my humans around the house in circles but not more than I love to chew on everything. That's how I got the nickname "Chewy." I have chew toys to keep me busy, but I get distracted by corners of the rugs in the living room and the cupboards in the kitchen. I also love to chew on socks, either tied together to make a really long chew toy or single socks as they come off your feet. I love to cuddle up with you or cuddle by your feet as you are working. Ooh, I see the corner of something. GOTTA GO!
