Chico's Story

Meet Chico: The Bowling Ball With Legs (…Sort Of) If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if pure joy, a snack obsession, and a slightly wobbly gravitational pull were all packed into one compact canine body—wonder no more. Chico is, in every way that matters, a bowling ball disguised as a dog. Shape: Spherical. Aerodynamic in exactly zero ways. Movement: He rolls. He waddles. Occasionally he gathers momentum and achieves a gentle “thud-thud-thud” across the room. Personality: 100% sweetheart, 0% awareness of his own mass.
