This is Fergie, named after Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas. Fergie is a Chinese Crested Hairless—you don’t see many around. She has a mane and boots—hair toward the bottom of her legs, as well as a long-haired-tail. She is 11 years old and still active as can be. She still does zoomies and goes absolutely nuts when she gets her daily Greenie (dog treat).
She is the best dog we’ve (Erlene and Jeff Schwartz) ever had. Smart as hell, sweet as can be, obeys excellently, and always wants to be near you. She gets jealous if you’re paying attention to another dog. Fergie has a couple of small plush toys that she likes to chase or play tug of war. She loves to ride in the car in the back seat on a blanket. She’s ridden to Fort Collins many times and sleeps pretty much the whole way.
She sleeps right against me, her daddy, every night. I think that’s because it’s easier to wake me very early in the morning wanting to go outside.
Oh, and she doesn’t chase bunnies.
