Clover and Snoopy (b. circa April/May 2012[1]) are the Chandlers' beagles. Chris and Barb bought them 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 brothers. 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. Clover has a green collar, and Snoopy, Chris's dog, naturally has a pink collar, making him a tomgirl.
Snoopy, who officially belongs to Barb, is named after the dog from Peanuts, who was also a beagle. Clover was named by Chris; by way of explanation, he posted the cryptic comment, "'Shine, little Clover, Glimmer, Glimmer.' :D." Apparently Clover's name 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.
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. | ” |

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.

- ↑ According to their entry, they were three months old when Chris entered them into the contest. Since registration to the contest began on 16 July 2012 (see contest rules), this would mean they were born on either April or May.
