I do love Flint river started it with rescue dogs a long toime ago and saw how fast the dogs got ot looking good. Also i have a very bad back and it comes to hte door and my ups man even carries it ot where i keep the big bin. One tign i wil have to get used to is buying a lot less lol
Sam my man said if I use flint rover and want the tinier chi-- tea cup size i need ot use moist food and not the puppy nuggets.
I work form home my man has sold 4 books adn is writing 2 more at the tiem and i illsutrate them.
I love it because we work together and are turly best freinds.
Sam knows i am not happy wiht out a dog ot love on and we have a big back yard here thatis fenced and we are fixing the country house up so we cam sell it. We are then gona fix this one up better p[aint tec adn then build a house int eh mountains.
am glad chis are so easy to adatp because i wil take it everywher
ei go if it isint a barker maybe in a bag ot church wiht me when i attend mass lol
i know alady that does that so father will bless her angel every week.

I will honestly tell you that I think (and pretty much everyone else
here) chihuahuas are the best breed ever... lol. They do have
several medical problems though such as luxating patellas (kneecap
slips in and out of place), heart problems, hypoglycemia (low blood-
sugar- this mostly occurs in puppies), and trachea problems. Some
are also very temperamental... lol. But they are like people and
they all have their own unique personalities. Some are energetic,
some are not. Some are barkers, some are not. They are an excellant
breed for someone that wants to take their dog everywhere with them.
They thrive on human companionship and will become depressed without
it. They were afterall bred for companionship. Puppies must be
socialized with other dogs and people so that they won't become
aggressive or fearful (fear biting is a big problem with chis). In
my opinion, if you are wanting a dog for you, I would say get just
one puppy. He/she will bond to you better being that there is not
another pup to play with. But if you work during the day, then I
would say to get 2 so that the pup doesn't feel neglected or become
bored. I only have one chi. As a pup she was always sitting in my
lap (wanted to get away from my little boys... lol). She got so used
to it that now at age 2 she doesn't think she should have to sit on
the floor or even on the couch. As far as food, I've heard that
Flint River dog food is very good. I believe some on this group feed
it to their chis. I wish you luck in your decision! ~Lacey
