Well I am not surprised at all - Chi's have a way of working their way into your heart and soul. I have never had a breed like them and am so sorry that I did not know how wonderful they are until later in my life. But the good news is I did and they have changed my life forever. I am a better person because of them and they have taught me so much. They are addicting.... because once you have one its hard not to get another one and as you see on this site some have 6 or more and they are all loved and cared for. I have two and never in my life would of thought of having two dogs.... but so glad that I do! Welcome to the wonderful world of Chihuahua's! I have seen big biker men with tatoo's all over come over and pet and talk to Abbey like she is a baby. They can melt anyone's heart!

He was raised without pets and was raised not to have any. In India many many dogs run the streets starving and are not friendly with people. They are Strays from birth. They do not have a dog shelter or anything like that I know of. For 9 years, my hubby did not want a dog or any pet when I asked. I did not bother him much about it until I really wanted a dog, and then had to beggggggggggg for one. I promised him it would be a very small dog and I would take care of it etc... well he finially gave in! That is when I got Ricky. Its taken this 3 months, but my hubby really likes Ricky now. He will not hold him or let him on him, but he does pet his head when Ricky comes to him for attention. anyway, do you know who spoils him more than me? yup! my hubby. He always gives him part of what he is eating, drops pieces on the floor for Ricky. Just see the pictures! See the begging Ricky does?? no matter how much I ask my hubby not to feed him our food... he does it anyway, saying look at him, he wants some. LOL I really dont mind. They bond this way. Please know that I took a picture after each time my hubby gave him a piece of food. (he only puts the food on the floor). ohhh and I forgot to say, as most of you know, Ricky is toy crazy... guards them with his life, etc. After each time Ricky got a bite of food, he would run into the bedroom to make sure his NEW plush toy was still in his bed. sooo funny!! He even has taken this toy out for walks with us!! He does not want to leave it in the house. He carries it and prances along, puts it down to pee, picks it up and prances some more... and people get a kick out of seeing him doing this. I mean his toy is almost bigger than he is.
