Hi Everyone, We have a wonderful little 5 month old LH chihuahua named Teddy. He loves to play fetch with a small tennis ball and we do this with him for about 30 minutes each day. We are wondering if you all play other games with your chis. Teddy loves the fetch game but we get a little bored with it sometimes and would like to teach him something new. Any ideas? He is very smart and we would like to challenge him.
Thanks, Jean and Les >From: [email protected] >Reply-To: "No Reply"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: [email protected] >Subject: [Chihuahuas] Digest Number 1553 >Date: 3 Jan 2007 21:35:51 -0000 > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >Welcome to Chihuahuas at YahooGroups! > > > > > > Welcome to Chihuahuas at YahooGroups! > > > Messages In This Digest (24 > Messages) > > > > > 1. > > Re: May be OT for some groups Re: May be OT for some groups > From: > Christina > > > 2a. > > Happy New Year > From: > Christina > 2b. > > Re: Happy New Year > From: > e Bloise > > > 3a. > > Thank you > From: > marsha Taylor > 3b. > > Re: Thank you > From: > emily Bloise > 3c. > > Re: Thank you > From: > dasha48 > 3d. > > Re: Thank you > From: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > 4a. > > Help!
