Henrietta, One Sexy Chicken


Here's a dog toy that I guarantee is like no other: Henrietta, the handpainted, poly-filled latex dog toy ($14.95 for the large). She's the new chicken in town. And Alyce Duffy, owner of Whiskazz and Pawzz in Hockessin, says she's a hot chick-en and a hot seller.

Maybe it's her back story: She was raised on chicken farm in America's Heartland, but showed a gift for performing at an early age. When she grew up, she was off to Vegas with her dreams of fame. She was cast as a showgirl and for 20 years she wowed the crowds. Now retired, she lives in a "swanky trailer park near Fort Lauderdale."

Maybe it's the outfit. Or maybe, just maybe it's the squawk she makes when you squeeze her.

Henrietta makes kind of a long, plaintive wail. She doesn't sound particularly happy.
