Could you send me the link?   Lol, I had my Gigi for months before I heard her bark too, and it is such a cute little bark, not annoying at all. She hardly barks too. Lucky me, because Princess has enough bark for six dogs!   I have seen a lot of pictures of pom-chis and each one is as cute as the next. Last summer when I was at a local park, a lady had a tiny dog, that I knew had chi in it and I suspected Pap to because the ears were ridiculously huge, and I mean huge! She said that years before the dog wandered to her porch and didn't want to leave so she kept him. She had been told by several people including her Vet that it was a Papachi. One of those designer dogs I guess.           -------Original Message-------   From: EmberlyF Date: 3/3/2012 9:35:10 PM To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Chihuahuas] Re: Gigi is shedding a lot---The proper way to de-shed a dog     I only have her. So all those pictures are of her as a puppy up to now. You can see as a puppy she had a more fluffy type coat. I was researching and had found a very nice breeder that I wanted to go meet. Than I saw a guy in my apartment complex walking what appeared to be two long coat chihuahuas. I stopped to talk to him. I asked him about their temperament and what it was like to live with them. I just wanted to see what they were like in real life. Then he said do you want a puppy because we have some. I was shocked. The father was definitely a red and white long coat chi and the mother was black and tan. I was told that she was half Pomeranian and half long coat chihuahua. Gigi's sister and brother was also black and tan. They gave her to me at 6 weeks old and she was already mostly potty trained. I was scared because I had never had such a small baby. Her sister was even smaller. I felt bad about taking her so early. I met both the parents and I was able to see where they kept the puppies. I really got lucky. It was an impulsive purchase. I had been looking and talking to breeders for months and just like that I bought a puppy. I knew I shouldn't have looked at them, but she is a healthy perfect little girl. Her mother was a super barker. I heard her before I ever reached the apartment, but Gigi is nearly a year old now and I have only heard her bark 2 times. Emberly
