Tell us about Dallas.
Dallas is Rango's real life brother and BFF. He lives with Chompers and Peanut so he seems to be the most spoiled one of the bunch. Short and stout but also the happiest and laziest boy ever; he puts the S in Chompers and Sons.
What makes Dallas unique?
I have never seen a Carpet Swimmer but Dallas should get the gold medal for this one! He is the only pup in our crew who will rub his belly on every single rug in the house. He starts his day carpet swimming and he ends his day carpet swimming. He also loves putting his body anywhere it most definitely will not fit. I often see him purposely pushing another pet out of their bed or sitting on their heads till they move. He might be the smallest but he's also the heaviest so he knows how to use his weight to his advantage.
Does he have any nicknames?
Dal, Dally, Churby
What is his favorite toy?
Dallas has a huge collection of hedgehogs. He loves walking around with a hedgehog in his mouth and can entertain himself for hours with his toys. Since we brought a third pup into the house he seemed to claim all the toys as his own and will also run around with all of Chomps food toys. Not sure if he knows he can't actually eat the food toys but he won't be caught outside without trying to eat his pizza.
Special Talents/Tricks?
Just being cute and chubby. Dallas can jump and stand on his hind legs but he refuses; he waits and stares with his big eyes till someone realizes he needs help getting up. The ONLY time he might actually try to use his muscles are if/when food is involved. He wants all his treats first and quickly realized Rango will out jump him if he stays down.
Anything else you want to share with us?
If you read our first post 'Meet Chompers' you'll know I stole my moms puppy from her after about 15 minutes of her having him. Well almost four years later we finally let her get her own! Dallas has been such a great addition to our household. He is always happy and will pretty much let you do anything to him. Even at his laziest he seems to make us laugh. Dal has the sweetest personality and gives so much love when you need it the most.

3. Had all his toys on the bed waiting for Dad to get home from work so they could play.
Tell us about Chompers.
Chompers is a little dog with a big attitude, I don't think he's realized how small he actually is. He has always been drawn to larger dogs but the older he gets the less social he becomes. My little man always aims to please - he lets me dress him up all the time and will literally fall asleep mid photo shoot. Full time napper part time male model.
How did you meet?
Chompers was spoken for when we met. My mom adopted him from a family member and brought him home when he was a little puppy. We had a territorial cat in the house at the time so everyone decided he would have to spend the first night in my room to keep safe. The rest is history - we instantly fell in love and I quickly took him from my mom. #SorryNotSorry
Does he have any nicknames?
Chomps, Chompies, Monkey, Chimps, Chimpies, The Boy, Stinky
What is his favorite toy?
He walks around with Silly Squeakers Beer and Liquor Bottles. They are his absolute favorite! We got the first one as a joke but every year he gets a new one for his birthday. We've tried other brands and styles but it has to be rubber. He makes you squeak it for him until he starts howling.
Special Talents/Tricks?
His newest trick is convincing different people he hasn't had a treat. He has definitely realized how spoiled he is now so he doesn't do tricks for treats anymore. My parents are soft so they give him one even if he doesn't follow his commands. Chompers is also very intelligent; we can't say certain words or phrases around him so we spell everything out when he's around.
Anything else you want to share with us?
We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for my little man. He changed me for the better and I think in some ways he knows it. As a women, I've grown up a lot having him in my life. I am more patient, kind and heck of a lot more affectionate. Having someone in your life that loves you more than you love yourself changes you and i'll forever be grateful for the impact he's had on our lives. Both Chompers and Rango have been our inspiration in developing this brand.
