Clover and Snoopy (b. circa April/May 2012[1]) are the Chandlers' beagles. Chris and Barb bought them at a puppy mill in Fredricksburg on 13 May 2012. The idea of hoarding dogs was originally Barb's idea, and Chris eventually acquiesced. The CWC community learned of their existence on 1 August 2012, when a link to an entry of them Chris submitted to a local contest was posted on the CWCki Forums. The contest ended on August 12, and Chris didn't win.
According to one of Chris's Facebook posts, the dogs are siblings. Clover has a white mark on her snout, and Snoopy doesn't. Additionally, they each have an animal chew toy - Clover has a duck, Snoopy a skunk. Snoopy has a green collar, and Clover, Chris's dog, naturally has a pink collar.
Snoopy, who officially belongs to Barb, is named after the dog from Peanuts, who was also a beagle. Clover was named by Chris; initially believed to be derived from Patti-Chan's origin story in Sonichu #6, which featured a four-leaf clover by way of explanation, he would eventually post the cryptic comment, "'Shine, little Clover, Glimmer, Glimmer.' :D." Apparently Clover's name actually came from Chris mishearing the lyrics to the song "The Glow-Worm," recorded by Johnny Mercer and probably in Bob's collection. The actual lyrics are: "Shine, little glow-worm, glimmer, glimmer." So just as with everything else in his life, Chris failed at naming his dog.
Even more confusingly, during his date with Catherine, Chris would claim that Clover was actually named after the character of the same name from the show My Little Pony Tales.
Living conditions
On 6 August 2013, Chris posted on Facebook a picture of dog urine on a newspaper. It's assumed that since they're still using paper, the dogs are not going outside, and most likely not getting exercise. This has angered many pet owners.
“ | I have a strong feeling those dogs are obese, covered in fleas, and just sit around on a blanket all day and probably only get pet when Christian happens to look away from his vidya as they walk past him and he remembers "oh yeah, I have dogs" and gives them a quick pat on the rump. And I know for a fact they don't get bathed because the Chandlers can't even be fucked to bathe themselves, let alone their pets. And I'm also willing to bet they get fed the cheapest food the chandlers can buy. | ” |
A certain user from the CWCki Forums. |
Sure enough, in December 2014, a statement released by Catherine (who was invited to the Chandler's Rental House by Chris himself) confirmed that the dogs are not house-trained, are aggressive towards strangers, and, possibly due to a lack of exercise, are severely obese. Given how Chris has demonstrated the same attitude towards his cats, this comes as a surprise to absolutely no one.
Chris has never once said that he is happy to have the dogs, referring to them on Facebook only as a burden of responsibility. On 29 November 2013, he said that he doesn't love them.[2]
The Chandlers' minivan has a bumper sticker which states, "I Sleep With Dogs." PETA has not yet been notified.
