B-Day: Jan 6, 1997

Fav Food: prefers Fish, Cheese, and crackers, but enjoys all organic and
inorganic matter

toys, ropes hanging from tree branches, our crab apple tree (poor little tree), socks,
elk femur bones, and most recently, CHICKENS (BAD Kiche!)

Hobbies: Renovating garden into den (heck, who likes veggies anyways?), pruning
the trees
Criminal Record: Plead guilty to helping Bruin eat five of the neighbor's
chickens... an isolated incident
Things He's Devoured That We Wish He Hadn't: couch (arm and cushion), doghouse,
chunk of the lawn, crab apple tree, raspberry bushes, all the ripe strawberries
(he always gets 'em first), hats, socks, jeans, coats, shoes, watches, gloves,
bike seats and tires, carpet, chairs, crayons, markers, pens, drawings, picture
frames, our pet bird, the coffee table, a tarp, a tent, the park bench, rugs,
congoleum, tupperware, cassette tapes, hoses, rakes, shovels, the christmas tree,
chili
Enclosure: while family is at work -- Kennel, 6 ft high cedar w/ 2 PADLOCKED
gates (else neighborly children like to let him out to "play" which is no good
for the chickens), about 1400 square feet, including space under deck, which is
good for hot summer days; while family is home -- fenced back yard, not too big,
not too small, mostly 6 ft high cedar, except for a 3 ft high section in the
front, which he DOES NOT climb or jump over... Kiche sees a fence and doesn't
even attempt escape... in his mind Gates are the only way out
Water Dish: 6 ft diameter plastic Kiddie Pool... only way to be sure he always
has water, since he tips over most other things... AND it keeps him occupied
Biggest Fascinations/Amusements: the ceiling fan, people floating by on rafts,
things under rocks, and dogs belonging to the "Toy" group
He Wonders: why strangers no longer squeal and smother him in hugs and kisses
like they did when he was a puppy.
To the left is a photo of Kiche when she was a cute fuzzy little 8 week old pup. The very first photo above is of Kiche at 8 months of age, still fuzzy and still very cute.
Kiche wears that orange harness only as a precaution against being shot. I worry that someone might mistake him for a coyote, so I like to make it obvious that he's someone's "pet." He does have a real sled dog harness that he uses during the winter. Kiche isn't exactly "lead dog" material, but he does have his "gees" and "haws" down.
Kiche is "owned" by Elizabeth.
