"She is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.
You are her life, her love, her leader
She will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of her heart
You owe it to her to be worthy of such devotion."

Chick was proof that you don't have to get a dog as a puppy for them to bond completely to you. I received Chick when she was 3yrs old and there was no doubt in anyone's mind that she was MY dog. She was my first dog and taught me things that only your first dog can teach you. She tolerated and forgave all of my mistakes. She loved to go hiking and would chase anything that moved. In her younger years she could jump a 6ft fence and was a beautiful, powerful dog to watch run. The only dog Chick ever loved was Zoot's sire, Mac. He could do anything to her and once she came to live with me, she tolerated other dogs but never loved another like him. She loved to make people uncomfortable if they showed any fear of her and was a very good judge of who I should be hanging around. I always joke that I lost Chick to a younger woman when Arian came along because WOW did she love her and protect her from everything. She slept with her every night and would get irritated with us if we let Arian stay up past bedtime. Chick was always a character and could make it very clear her feelings of you. Chick crossed the rainbow bridge April 20, 2013 held in my arms. She is the oldest American Bulldog I have ever met and will forever hold a piece of my heart.
