*I have had dogs as long as I can remember and always loved them. I got my first Chi in 1990 for Christmas and Teddie was so sweet and smart and then in 1995 I got my little fellow Happy. But they were all passed away so I finally gave in and got these 2 brothers that I have now. Born in Aug, 2010 so now 5 months old. When my children were youn g we always had dogs of somekind.* *Ann * On Thu, Jan 13, 2011 at 3:39 PM, Beth M <[email protected]> wrote:
