CHRISTINE’S BIO
You don’t have to be Doctor Dolittle to date Miss December, but you should be open to some ardent petting. "If a guy doesn’t like animals, it won’t work," says Christine Smith. "I’ve had dogs that just did not like somebody and basically chased him out the door. I had another 140-pound dog that would sit on the couch between me and my date and just start pushing to get between us as much as possible. They’ve been right so far, so I’m going to listen to the dogs from now on."
Assuming we could get past the dogs, we wonder what Christine’s ideal date would be. We remind her that she wrote on her Playboy questionnaire that it would involve "camping, fine wine, a fire and one sleeping bag." Now she rolls her eyes and laughs. "Well, that would be a good date if I knew the guy for a while," she says. "Otherwise you’re stuck on a mountain with someone on a first date and you realize he’s annoying. He would get to sleep on pinecones. That’s why it usually takes me about two weeks of asking questions and getting feedback from random people who know him before I go on a date with someone".
