4. [...] Chico the Wonder Dog has been trading places with another Chico the Wonder Dog.   That post is much older and may have more incoming links since that guy seems to spend more time posting about his dog than I do, though based on my quick analysis of this and a few other cases I think it indicates that Google looks carefully at the rate of link growth, and if it slows they tend to put back the “old, tried and true” page in favor of the newcomer. This makes sense from an anti-spam perspective although in Chicos particular case it probably does not yield the top dog. [...]

8. Pappy’s that’s a great point about the home page for the other Chico who has, sadly, passed away. Google has assumed reasonably that the most relevant Chico would be the one that is featured at the blog home page.

10. Hi. I just found your blog and found out about your Lab, Chico the Wonder Dog. I may have heard about this before but I don’t remember.
    Chico the Wonder Dog has his own blog now. He went to Doggie Heaven last year but he still visits from time to time and he decided to start his own blog. Please drop by and say hello. http://atimeandaplace.blogspot.com/
