Chloe The Wonder Shih Tzu is known for many things: her crooked teeth, her so-loud-it-actually-has-woken-up-the-neighbors snoring, and, of course, her life’s ambition: to seek out and destroy all squirrels.
But there’s something else you should know about “Everybody’s Favorite Shih Tzu” (which, incidentally is the name of the Chloe-centered pilot I’m going to pitch to Animal Planet):
she’s prone to developing obsessions.
Over the past few months, Chloe The Wonder Shih Tzu has been obsessed with:
Our bed (specifically, underneath the bed). She’d spend hours under there. Sleeping? Sniffing? Dancing? Who knows.
The front door. She’d sit four inches from the door and stare. Just stare.
The microwave. Words can’t express the sheer amazement in her eyes when Chloe discovered the lights, beeps, and spinning motion (!) of this appliance.
But all these pale in comparison to her latest obsession: the humidifier.
She sits directly in front of it and, well, stares. Not sure if she’s waiting for it to do something (give her a treat, perhaps) or if she’s just trying to intimidate it, but something about this device has captivated her attention. The weird part? It’s not even on.

As much as Chloe loves the humidifier, sources say she’s already expressing interest in the air filter (pictured above, on right). What will ultimately win the obsession battle? Stay tuned.
