Chile surprised us all.

When Tara was let loose in the kitchen, Bella and Bailey backed off.
Chile, who had been aloof until now, went over the puppy. Both their tails were wagging. Tara jumped into Chile's face, and Chile's tail wagged even harder. The puppy then wildly ran circles as she used Chile as a tunnel, squeezing under Chile from between her legs. I got video but no stills because no one was very still.

This gave Bella the incentive to go over and join in with the fun. I'm not exactly sure what Bella did. Lick the pup??? Whatever Bella did, when I finally decided playtime was over (to avoid puppy accidents), Tara was soaking wet like she'd just had a bath. Bella likes to chew on Chile's ears, so, I guess she was chewing on the puppy. Tara's back and sides were wet, not only her ears. The 3 girls had a great time together. However, Chile is Tara's favorite.

Meanwhile, Bailey wants absolutely no part of the new puppy. Tara is far too wild for her.
