Oh I love it.  The stubborn Rottie is showing through with Meg.  I am sure mine wouldn't dare touch a rubber chicken.  I might have to see if Petsmart has one so we can find out 🙂

Love it Meg & Clare.  Way to go.  I love the bury the chicken 🙂

Oh Clare , your commentary  always makes everything do much more fun😃   Thanks for the smiles  and laughter!!😚

So now we have Cool Dawg Frankie, who actually  seems frightened by the chicken!  He actually  was running from it as I was jntroducing him to it!🤣🤣    Yoi'll see that Myrtle comes to save Frankie from the big bad chicken and gently carries it off.  She is sooooo gentle with it.💕💖❤

One more and then our entries are complete!  And the crowd roars, FINALLY!!    As you can see, Merry Myrtle is definitely  a LOVER and not a destroyer!   If I made it squawk , she jumped into her Nurse mode and gently tried to comfort it.  She is sooooo sweet, such a sweet, sweet Soul💖💖

Oh I can’t see the bloomin videos right now ‘cause of my slow internet speed, but I am loving that Merry Sweet Nurse Myrtle has got the chicken in the bag, so-not-to-speak!! Ha! I think she should win the competition by default!!!

I will be back to watch the videos...

♥️♥️♥️

That was fantastic! Myrtle is still keeping her bro safe from the big bad monsters..oops I mean chicken... lol.  I love Myrtle's grace, she just calmly walks around now and she is doing a great job of nosing things as she gets to them and stopping before she bangs in to them, way to go Myrtle!

I have no doubt that Mitchell would snub a rubber chicken, although this temps me to wanna see if our friends at Amazon carry them... 

In the meantime, here are some Mitchell hijinx way-cool

Now that made my day!😃 

 Love the close ups of his handsome face with such glee in his  lovely  brown golden eyes!

First off, Mitchell is very smart!  I love how he waited for the hippo to be brought to him!    Once he had it, MINE!!  MINE!!😎

But then the ball....oh yeah.....he became an instant puppy again!!.  I loved when he had to make "choices" and became quite vocal that he wwnted the ball!!   I would say the ball IS his favorite , but the hippo certainly  was a very close second!!!

Still grinning over here!   Thanks Mitchell, we love your "hijinx" video.....keep em coming!!

Hugs

Gosh, so much has happened since I last checked in here 🤓

Nellie and Bob are definitely strong contestants in the “ignoring the chicken and going for label instead” category 😑🐔

Myrtle is as sweet as honey protecting Frankie from any chicken threats 🤚🏽🐔 and Frankie was ... well ... he was quite a chicken, trying to get away 🐔💨💨💨

So heartwarming seeing how sweetly Myrtle carries the chicken in her mouth 💕

Mitch’s video is wonderful and so much fun ...

Definitely the hippo is his second choice but it was quite a close choice to the ball, hey ? 

I’ve purchased a chicken today, a chicken which is just right to get Pedro and Woody enrolled in the competition 🐔🐧🐦

Now it’s just a matter of waiting for them to come back as Angel Eurydice took them to a short vacation in the sky 🐮☁️🌟

😘😘🐮💫✨🌟🌹

Eurydice 77kg/170lb Great Dane limping end of April 2016, amputation (right front leg/osteosarcoma) 4 May 2016 6 courses of carboplatin followed by metronomic therapy, lung mets found 30 Nov 2016. 3 courses of doxorubicin, PET scan 26 Jan 2017 showed more mets so stopped chemo. Holistic route April 2017. Lung X-ray 5 May 2017 showed several tennis ball size mets, started cortisone and diuretics. Miss Cow earned her XXL silver wings 12 June 2017, 13 months and 1 week after amputation and 6 1/2 months after lung mets, she was the goofiest dawg ever and is now happily flying from cloud to cloud woof woofing away :-)

Nellie and Bob, welcome to the competition! Looks like you are just getting warmed up. But be careful, Myrtle and Mitchell are creeping up on you in the "Totally adorable with toys" judging criteria!

I wonder if maybe Frankie was turned off by the chicken's rubber smell? We were once given a dog toy that smelled soooo rubbery, Wyatt would have nothing to do with it!

😂🤣😃👏  This is too much fun!  Pedro and Woody are probably getting expert advise from Eurydice on how to properly handle the chicken. Jet... not sure what you are up to there .. but I have a feeling it is going to bring laughter to the point of tears..

Okay, while we're  anxiously  awaiting to jear from Jet and Eurydice and all others, just jad to post some more video of Merry Myrtle and Frankie too 

To see Myrtle  actually take interest in something gets me a little teary eyed (in a good way).  Basically  she sleeps a lot.

So I'm  outside trying to coax her to come off her bed and join me.

Not habing any part of it....or so I thought.  Next thing I know, not only did she come outside, she ventured off the ramp to and found the envelope  package the chicken came in.  She must have taken it oitside on her own after I opened it.  Then went to retrieve it.

So the rubber chicken challenge  has a lot of different healing layers to it for my Merry Myrtle!  

Then we have Frankie  not liking it, yet again, (could be the scent of rubver as you aiggested Rene), but Myrtle comes and saves it!   Sooooooo sweet.....sooooooo gentle...💖💖

Bhahaha! That reminded me of a clip from that old Cartoon Network show "Robot Chicken" or something similar. Eeerie and a little creepy!
