example of inheriting EventEmitter in node

dog.js

var emitter = require('events').EventEmitter;
var util = require('util');

var dog = function(){};
dog.prototype = {
	name: "i am a dog",
};

// 1st way of inheriting
//dog.prototype.__proto__ = new emitter();

// 2nd way in inheritence
//dog.prototype = Object.create(emitter.prototype);

// 3rd way of inheritence
util.inherits(dog, emitter);


var charlie = new dog();

console.info(charlie.name);

charlie.on("bark", function(){
	console.info("in the dog has barked listner");
});

charlie.emit("bark");

the dog class has properties on the prototype chain. This means all instances of dog can do instance1.name and we will get i am a dog.

Now when i do inhertence the way node and js community recommends, i loose the original prototype. What am i doing wrong here?
