Chico the Wonder Dog is our lab mix. This is a photo of Chico when I informed him that there is an *imposter* Chico the Wonder Dog out there on the web now, a male Chihuahua.

I have to say, I never quite understand the rules of ranking. Perhaps you might also shoot for “Chico the Wonder Pooch” and “Chico the Wonder Mutt” just to diversify the portfolio. Of course the OTHER Chico gets top billing in that blog home page.
today he might be at number 2 but have a great potential to be number one once again in google rankings
