He's a boston terrier mix. Sweetest lil guy ever. I once joined a forum on some dog site and mentioned that Chaz wasn't full-bred Chi, and everyone pretty much acted like I was the anti-christ for it, but he has to me more Chi dominate traits then the Terrier.

My chihuahua has some Jack Russell in her so she's not purebred either. Its part of what makes Tiffany who she is, so I wouldn't change her.  I've never felt looked down on or unwelcome here or on any other chi group, so I don't think you have anything to be worried about.  What kind of chi mix is your little guy?

First, I have a half Chihuahua. I know alot of people in this group
are strictly chihuahua people and will frown upon me for even
mentioning that he's not a full bred Chi, but he's an amazing dog
otherwise, and there's a few things I need help on being that he's
such a small dog.

I shop constantly at petsmart for anything I need to buy for him,
toys, food.. everything. I don't buy the most expensive stuff or
anything like that but I like to make sure he's healthy and happy and
I tend to spoil him. A month or so ago he walked right up and jerked
out this HUGE beef or ham flavored bone, I believe it IS a rawhide,
and even with chewing or gnawing on it constantly everyday since he's
gotten it he can't much break it - after I bought it for him, someone
had mentioned that rawhides in smaller dogs cause blockage and can
kill them. I'm wondering if this would be one of those "rawhides", and
is there anything I can give him to gnaw on that w on't hurt him in the
long run?

Second, he's not fixed yet.. I HAD him trained perfectly to walk
around without his leash, but everytime I get comfortable with him
doing it - he makes me look like a fool and takes off. I believe it's
because he can smell the female dogs in the neighborhood.. but he's
had a close call with almost getting hit (I realize this makes me
sound like a horrible pet owner); I'm wondering if anyone else has had
this issue, and if getting him fixed would help alot of his behavior
rebellion against listening to me?

Third. In the past 2 months he has become OVERLY posessive of me. If
I'm sleeping no one can come within 5 feet of me without him acting
like it's the end of the world. He gets really mean, and it bothers me
to a great extent. I know that Chihuahua's are like that sometimes,
and I love that he's MY dog and doesn't take to anyone else, but it's
embarassing when he does things like snipping at p eople just for
touching me.. I have a feeling in the future it will cause great
problems - so I wanted to know what I could do it help out in breaking
him of being so aggressive over me.
