Chase sounds like a good dog's name to me
Well, I guess it is just their nature. Many dog's were and some still are taught to hunt creatures, but I believe it is their playful nature! My dog also chases shadows at night, and also chases lights, like if you shine a torch around on the floor. I don't really think there is an exact answer to your question, but I do hope I have helped a little.
Depends on the dog.
Any dog breed can chase cats.
Chase Utley's dog is named Jack
Both. Depending on the dog and cat, dogs can chase cats, but some feisty or territorial cats are more than capable in chasing away a dog.
Because dogs have something called 'prey drive', or in domesticated dogs, 'ball drive', an instinctual behaviour instilled in wild dogs to motivate them to catch their prey. because there's no need for prey drive any more (assuming you're feeding them...) they get the urge to chase various things, light happens to be a challenge for them to chase (just like balls, cars and even shadows or people sometimes).
You should run if a dog decides to chase you. If you can climb on to anything then you should try to do so. Scream for help and cover your face and neck if the dog catches you.
