I have a German Sheppard, Romanov, and 4 Chi's. I only meant to have one! My previous one was hit by a car and a dear friend wanted to bring a relative of his from Mexico to help me in my grief. Before he came back I met a man on the street selling his puppies, they were not being taken care of and looked very malnourished so I bought one. It had almost no hair and reminded me of a pig so I named her Lupita from the pig in the movie the Milagro Beanfield War. My friend then bought me my second in Mexico. As he was crossing the border a big U S Customs Officer came running over yelling at him "NO, NO, NO! You can't bring that dog into the US she is not a US Citizen!" He then had a little ceremony for her making her an honorary US citizen with everyone applauding! I named her Frida after Frida Kahlo. Two years later I bred Lupita with my friends male and we had 5 boys! We named them Lucias, Sylvester, John-Paul, Benedict, and Leo, all after Popes! I sold all right away but the person that wanted Sly and Lucias had to have surgery and I promised to hold them until she felt better. Well she changed her mind and I was too much in love with them by this time anyway. So here we are. Romanov could not be more gentle, she seems to think she is the Mother of the babies that never grow up! I am 47 and disabled and can't imagine my life without them. Christmas Eve Lupita got out and was hit by a car and is limping around in a cast, only a broken leg! We were very lucky. Anyway that's our story and I am so glad to have found this group!
