Hi Cate!! Welcome to the group! Sorry that the other group didn't work out for you and I hope you enjoy your stay here.
My name is Peggy and I have two rescues, Princess is a Mini American Eskimo
and Gigi is a LH, 6 1/2 lbs. Princess will be about 7, on May 30 and Gig
about 7 on July 18. Princess was found on the streets by Animal Control,
and placed in a Shelter which is where I found her when she was under 2 yrs
old. Gigi originates from a Backyard breeder and I rescued her last summer.
I love Australia, anytime I have seen movies, news or look on the web, it
always looks like such a beautiful country to live in. I felt very bad for
your people and your wildlife when they had the floods and fires, sooo sad!
I hope all that flooding and fires has finally stopped. We have had them
here and are still fighting the floods in several states.
I have to say that is one of the reasons I am not very fond of Facebook. I
personally don't think that it is such a good idea for so many people to be
giving out so much personal information like that to the entire world
because you never know who is going to misuse that info as you sadly found
out. You won't have a problem here, everyone is very knowledgeable and
compassionate. When we do make real friends we keep that info for private
emails only...much safer that way.
I would love to see pictures of your babies and learn all about them too.

Subject: [Chihuahuas] at last! a membership
Hi my name is Cate, I reside in Australia and proudly own 3 purebred
chihuahuas. I have had rather a bad experience trying to join a previous
yahoo group in the recent week, was harrassed by the moderator because she
didnt like my answers on the pending membership form..which included a new
litter of pups and an intact male (which has now been neutered) I was blamed
and shamed and hounded literally even to the point where the moderator was
going to contact my place of work where she tracked me down on facebook..
all this has left me bewildered as to what the groups actually stand for..I
thought sharing experiences and gaining knowledge would be the framework of
a group of this nature. We do not have a high rate of dumping in the country
town where i reside nor in the bigger capital cities of our state.. All I
want to do is to join a group and learn and share information on this highly
individual breed..thank you
