Heee heee! Good times from a great stay on a Florida farm. There's even a blog post about it, with a slide show of Jerry shredding that dastardly tub!
Having a flashback…
You can see the tote before Jerry shredded it in part of this video:

WOW! My people let Jerry do THAT? I never saw that before! Just so you know they would NEVER let me get away with shredding a tub. Mom would be like "OH NO! That's DANGEROUS! Wyatt you will cut your mouth! No!"
Jerry had all the fun. Sigh.

And yes, that is the same rubber chicken from his former life... 
And his early days on the road...

Bhahaha! I like that, a rubber chicken challenge! Hmmm. Now you've got our wheels spinning thinking about that one. I haven't seen rubber chickens in a lot of places but you never know.

Wyatt, we can certainly understand why you feel slighted. I know you must have rubber-chicken-cow-pony - envy!! Seeing Jerry run and dance around with that silly rubber chicken is just....hmmm.... beneath you. You're more of a "gonna' do things that cause me to go to the ER and have a variety of surgeries and bandaging" kind of dawg.😎
This was great fun taking a walk down memory lane. And a beautiful reminder of how much Jerry enjoyed being Jerry😎
Brad, thanks for getting this thread started.😊
Hugs
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too
PS great song!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!

Wonderful videos, what a treat 💖
Boy, oh boy, Jerry loved that chicken didn't he, he just keeps at it non stop, bless his little Angel's heart 🌟
I also vote for a three legged rubber chicken competition 🐥🐥🐥, it sounds super fun 😄
And the song was perfect too 🐾🐾🐾
Sending you hugs and cuddles and slobbery Angel's kisses from our babies 😘🐮💫✨🌟🌹

Alright I think we've gotta go with this idea! So apparently Loftus the Rubber Chicken is world famous!
and this rubber chicken squawks!
There are TONS of rubber chickens on, where else, Amazon!

Hee hee! I love this. Handsome Jerry. Such a beautiful dog. I also love the way the cows and horse are completely unbothered by him barking. They’re like yeah, yeah, Jerry, whatever...
its decided then. A rubber chicken challenge. We’re on.
Meg, Clare and Angel Pie xxx
PS Rubber chickens far more Pie’s department than Meg’s, but we will do our best.
Ruby, Staffy, born June 2022, became a Tripawd, November 2023, adopted January 2024.
Also Angel Tripawd Meg (aka The Megastar), who died in April 2023, aged 14, after seven glorious years on three, and Angel Staffies Elsie Pie and Bille. In the pawprints of giants...

This is the one Frankie and Merry Myrtle just ordered Hopefully the sound of the squeaker will help poor Myrtle find it before Frankie shreds it.😕
Meg may find it mpre interesting if it floats😎

Good point, Sally 😂 This is the one she picked. Meg’s chicken I said she could choose whichever she wanted so long as they can deliver tomorrow. This is URGENT! And we’re done with waiting for parcels...
this is going to be the best rubber chicken contest EVER!

Boy, this is exciting 😃
Shame Angel Eurydice cannot physically compete but I’d bet there will be franctic squeaking up there in the sky 🤪
Pie, Eurydice and all other Angels (chief of all Jerry) will cook up a storm for sure 🐔🐔🐔🐔
And as for us here on Earth, let the games begin 🥅🏑
