I have the cutest chihuahua! Lol. I will post pics soon. Love this thread!!

[SugarFemme]

I have a white Chihuahua I adopted from my parents. I swear she is the most incredible human being reincarnated in the body of lil dog. Everyone always rolls their eyes when I say my dog is a Chihuahua because they have this bad reputation of being yappy dogs. My Lizzie, is so NOT a yappy dog. She is so sweet and gentle. And she just instinctively knows when I need her most:)

You're right - people just don't understand until they've had one what sweet, wonderful little beings they are!

I lost one in the divorce - it broke my heart. Isabel (Reina Isabela de Spagna):

Awwwww OMG he is a cutie pie. My Lizzie is not small for a Chihuahua. She weighs 10 pounds, so she does NOT fit in my purse to carry around.

LOL Well Newton is a hefty SEVEN pounds now (he was 5 last year), thanks in part to my sweetie coming around and spoiling him ROTTEN! Here is an updated pic of him using Ms. Maggie as his bed:

Until I got one, I despised chihuahuas. There's a saying that the staunchest zealot to a cause is the convert, and I've got to say that fits here. I've been won over to the Land of Tiny Dogs, and I can't imagine my home without the little guy.

Their reputation as yippie and nervous and unfriendly might have more to do with the owners who treat them like ornaments. If you treat a dog like a dog, you get a happy well-adjusted dog. If you treat a dog like a toy doll, you get a badly behaved dog (wow, I think I just channeled Cesar Milan). That said, I admit I subject mine to various acts of humiliation, like putting him in Superman costumes and breading him.

Every dog breed has a "job" to do: It's in a border collie's genes to herd, beagles have an overwhelming tracking instinct, and retrievers, well, retrieve. Chihuahuas were bred with one job description: to be adored. Mine is very good at his job. :)

I was the same way! I always hated them, called them yappy dogs, then my cousin got Sancho's brother, and I fell in love. Then comes the kicker: "Well, they have a runt nobody wants, do you think you could take him?" Best (and really, easiest!) decision I ever made!

I've never had a dog that loved me the way a chihuahua does. They look up at you with big adoring eyes, and they are so smart! Isabel has like a hundred word vocabulary.

I agree, you can't treat them like eternal puppies the way some people do, makes for a VERY bad dog!

I want to put a pic up of my baby thats on my computer. How do I do it??

[Soft*Silver]

I have to admit I never liked little dogs of any kind. I prefer my big guys, the newfies. But in getting to know chrissy and his world, he told me about the chi he loved back in NV. He also told me about how his ex wife took off with everything including his wee poodle when she left him 14 years ago. He was still heartbroken over it. So when someone announced they had a chi to rehome, I grabbed him for chrissy. Best thing I ever did for him. That dog has brought him so much peace and security. It helped him feel bound to the earth. For 12 years after the divorce he was just floating around, just getting by. Finally, he felt he had a sanctuary. The dog actually helped me bond with chrissy, watching him love on the wee thing, made me realize what a big heart he has. So here is our bartock...

I have a chance to buy a chi pup, a long haired one. I would love to hear from folks about their preference of color and hair. I love our buff boi but also LOVE Isabel's coloring! What is that called? I dont care for the mixed colors, except in long hair. Love the black and whites long haired!

Do they get their ears cropped? Did I read that somewhere? I would not want that done. I dont even know if ours is cropped or natural!

He is tiny, less than 4 lbs.

Thank Gawd for kids :) My daughter showed me how to post a pic.

Brittney, Elinore & Jeanette we'er the chippetts. I named them after them , since my name is Jeanette.

[thedivahrrrself]

I want to put a pic up of my baby thats on my computer. How do I do it??

The easiest way is to upload it to a site somewhere, right click the pic, then hit "copy image location". after this, you'll click the little yellow mountain looking button above and paste the address in the box that pops up. that will post your pic when you hit submit.

If you don't have facebook, or room in your album, or anywhere else to post your pic first, you can go to www.pictourl.com and upload your pic there to get a url to use for it.

Hope that helps! Feel free to message me if this is confusing.

This a great store to visit when in New Orleans french quarter! Cant wait to go back. I got a lot of cute stuff.

I like short haired chi's. I don't like to fight with a dog to brush it. (some like it but some don't!) Isabel is a beautiful color, she was the only one in her litter that color (they were all black and tans). She is not quite "blue" (a rare and beautiful color), but it's close. "fawn" maybe? I'm not sure what her color is called.

NO, chis do not get their ears cropped. Some people will tape their dogs ears to make them stand up, but Newton is the only chi I've ever had whose ears didn't stand up on their own, and I love his little puppy ear look so I wouldn't change a thing.

I would (and many will disagree here) recommend getting their dewclaws cut. Yes, I'm sure it's painful when they are pups, but it's also painful when you have to clip them every few weeks, and even more painful if they curl into their paws. Talk to your vet about it. I've never done it, but I wish I had with Isabel. She is so difficult to clip, and the dewclaws are just horrendous.

Though I have two mixed bullies, I am loving looking everyone's adorable babies.

I say get an adult rescue! Too many dogs out there who need a loving home!

starryeyes, you need to get up a pic of your pup! That dog is awesome!

[Soft*Silver]

you know, I dont know why I didnt think of that to begin with. I will only have rescue newfs, and always older ones. No one wants an older dog, but I do! I love my seniors! So I need to go check into the chi rescue!

My little guy, Oliver, became quite the ambassador for the breed. He's changed quite a few minds regarding the myths about Chihuahuas. Before meeting him, people would tell me that they didn't like the breed because they were yappy and nasty. Nothing can be further from the truth, as Oliver proved to them.

When I first got him, I worked in a dementia unit. I used to bring him to work with me, and I became a firm believer in pet therapy. I would watch people who wouldn't interact with, acknowlege, or talk to other people light up when they saw him. A woman who I never heard speak in the two years I worked there, would hold entire conversations with Oliver. :)

[RockOn]

always2late, that is such a Good story about your Oliver. He's a handsome lad.

By the way, I just posted a photo of my chihuahua in my gallery. I couldn't get it to fit in here. ;)

[RockOn]

always2late, you asked about Kevin being mastiff. I adopted him from our local Humane Shelter and took him straight to my vet for a full physical in SEP 2010. She said she believed him to be close to a year old and a mixture of mastiff and pitbull. He is not tall like a mastiff. Kevin is short, very broad-chested and stocky. My vet indicated it is his face which resembles the mastiff breed. His personality is definitely mastiff - very mild mannered, sweet and easygoing.

[RockOn]

thedivahrrrself,
Wondering if your little Newton ever slides off in his sleep when he is atop your Ms. Maggie???

In the 90s, I had a tiny chi mixed with terrier. She was the runt in her litter. The Baby Gracie would sleep on top of my Rottewiler. So funny to watch the Baby go slowly up and down in rhythm with Robin's breathing. Sometimes she would slide off and not even wake up. Pure entertainment!

By the way ... if anyone is interested in seeing my "other chihuahua" - I loaded her photo in my gallery a short while ago. LOL!

Newton has this incredible talent for holding on even while sleeping. Sometimes, he'll sleep on my thigh, with his legs on either side, and even when I roll to my side, he manages to hold on! I keep wondering if I could teach him to log roll with those skills!

OMG, please post the "breading" picture here! ROFLMAO

As requested...here is Killer the Breaded Chihuahua. :) The breading craze is over, but the memories live on! And since cats were the intended target of the breading phase, I cut cat ears into the bread. To add to the absurdity, I had actually *baked* the bread that morning...lol.

Killer was very confused by the whole process of positioning food on his face, but in the end, he behaved like the top model that he is- anything to get that perfect shot. :)

I was asked to bring this over here lol i didn't know we had a chi thread !

this is Bear she is 6 1/2 years of age I rescued her at 3 weeks old, she is most certainly my little Butch, she hikes her leg and pees on trees, tops every other dog she can and her best friend is a Great Pyrenees.

this is her at a couple of months, I bottle fed her and often time she nursed my neck because she was taken from her momma at 3 weeks...I wasnt sure she would make it however was more than happy to pay the guy i got her from just to save her life.

http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d170/hstigen/Family/IM000949.jpg

this is her as of yesterday with her best friend
http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d170/hstigen/27f26497.jpg

and then lol this always cracks me up when they are together
http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d170/hstigen/d2325b28.jpg

My pup isn't yappy either and she doesn't shiver like others i have seen...I think its all in how a pup is raised.

[thedivahrrrself]

Isn't this thread fun? I love your baby. Isabel was a big Top too. She pees with one leg up and is the bossiest 5 pounds of flesh I've ever seen!

My cousin went to visit my ex (I know, traitor...), and he said they took Isabel to the bar with them. The bartender gave her a little piece of cheese, and after that she went back to the bar and barked to order more cheese. LOL She got her cheese, over and over again.

My boy Newton pees like a girl. Maybe I am just great at picking out transgender chihuahuas LOL My Sancho was all man, though, all about bravado and marking his territory... And very protective, I had a roommate who started dating a guy I worked with. The first time he ever put his arm around her, Sancho growled and snarled at him. He looked pretty intimidated!

The rescue I work with here in Seattle works mainly with dogs from Taiwan, but they also rescue dogs from shelters - especially if they are on the short list to be euthanized (they rescue a lot of Pits too) - the last Chi they had took months and months to adopt out - and she was the cutest little thing.

I wonder if they have a stigma of being yippy and shakey and that turns people off ....

I tell you, if I hadnt had 4 other dogs at home - or if I was a millionaire and could afford a 5th dog, I would have adopted her bc she was precious.

They have a boy Chi/Terrier up for adoption right now if you all know any Chi lovers in the Seattle area - they rescued him from a shelter just a few days before he was to be put down and he is just precious as hell with his little curly-q tail and smiley face. lol

-->Tiny (http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/22123244)<--

Didnt mean to turn this into an ad for a dog - I just think they're cute and the next time I am able to adopt, I may just get one. I wasnt sure I would be suited to own a small dog, but one of the dogs I fostered and now own is less than 20lbs and the cutest little old man you ever did see. :)


This is my little old man, Max after he destroyed his dog bed while I was gone - he came right back into the room as I was cleaning it up, plopped down onto the destroyed bed, with bits of it still stuck in his snaggle teeth, and just looked at me. That green stuff behind him is bed stuffing. You just cant be mad at a face like that!

Not a Chi, so I hope this is ok! :)

Could it be that the dog was in fashion at some point with women wanting to carry them around in their purses out there? Just guessing.

I would take a good guess that you are accurate. It is unfortunate that people treated their dogs as if they were "toys"

My pup has never been a purse pup..nor would i ever have subjected her to such cruelty.

They have a boy Chi/Terrier up for adoption right now if you all know any Chi lovers in the Seattle area - they rescued him from a shelter just a few days before he was to be put down and he is just precious as hell with his little curly-q tail and smiley face. lol

[SugarFemme]

If they could get him to me in Vegas, I would seriously take him in a heartbeat. I've been busting my brains trying to think of a way. I went and looked at the Chihuahuas on Petfinder last night and sat and cried looking at them. At which time my daughter took my laptop and would not let me look any longer LOL?

That tiny is precious as hell, isnt he? I can ask if they have transport to LV, but being foster based and a non-profit, their funds are in short supply. :(

I would love to have him him, but I cant have a 5th dog at this point - hell, the only reason I could adopt Max up there is because after a year and a half of being in foster care with me, he wasnt getting adopted (he is disabled and kind of like a cat in the "leave me alone" department lol) so the rescue offered to "sponsor" him and asked if they took care of his food and medical stuff, would I keep him. Of course, I said yes. :)

Ok - I asked the powers that be over at Salty Dog Rescue (the one adopting out Tiny) and they said they cant afford to do transfers that far - they prefer to stay local (I am thinking so that so if someone changes their mind, which happens more often than you would think, they can take the dog back) - so only to places they can drive to in a day.

Sorry, OneOfAKind :(

Wish I was close - I would take her in a heartbeat! Newton needs a new chica to play with. Maggie is too old and impatient. I'm hoping (hope of hopes!) to find an Inca Orchid to rescue somewhere.

I read some time ago that the chihuahua was sacrificed at funerals by Aztec priests so the dogs could help guide the deceased human to the after-life. One story/source even said the purpose of the chihuahua's death was to act as a martyr and absorb the sins of the deceased, so that the Aztec would have a pure soul and could get into heaven. Sound familiar? Maybe I would have felt a greater connection to Sunday School as a kid if Jesus had been a chihuahua.

If you touch them from the top of the blanket? Yes, Isabel does that all the time. I call the game Blanket Monster or Chupacabra LOL It also works if she is on top and my hand is under the blanket.

I also used to have a girl named Sweet Pea who would snarl and bite at you if you tried to move her while she was sleeping. The boys do not seem to have the same nesting habits with the blanket, in my experience.

Well, we have both been pretty involved with life, I suppose you could say. It has been a hard row to hoe here. Pop had some "legal" issues and had to spend some time in the "Cherokee County Institute of Higher Learning".

How cute all your pups are!! I wish I was smart enough to get pictures onto my computer. LOL!!

We have two chi's. We are hooked. A little crazy but SOOOOOO loving. Never will we be without one again.


Do anyone elses attack thier legs when they come home?? It doesn't matter how long I've been gone or what type of shoes I have on, our youngest one bites and growls and digs at my feet for the first few minutes. Every single time I come in the door. Even if I just went outside to get the mail?? It's so wierd. Does not do it to the hubby, just mine (I'm so lucky :blink:)


Really quirky but so darn cute.

lol...i had to train my pup to not whine when we went for a drive, it was hard because i wanted to coddle her and yet the whining drove me bezerk, so i used the same technique i had used with her when i came through the door and that was to ignore her so she wouldn't jump on me..low n behold she is now and has been ever since a great little travel companion. She also jumps to the arm of the couch when i come home and waits for me to leash her for a walk.

when i first got her i read that chihuahua's require daily training to remember i think that's bullshit myself because she remembers things she is just like her momma though and chooses what she is willing or not willing to do..

I completely agree with you!!!!! They pick and choose when and what they will actually listen to. Both of mine are brilliant little dogs. Smart as all get out. They know exactly what they're doing. And do it just out of reach so I can't snatch them up when they're naughty.


I've tried the ignoring. Believe me, I've tried it with other naughty behavior and it's like she just escalates??? And if I ignored her biting and scratching at my feet, she'd literally dig at me until she dug a hole in my foot. Not fun!

Plus, how do you get the "stern face" going long enough for them to figure out thru your tone and body language that yes in fact they are doing wrong. They're too damn cute.

I've never dealt with anything like this. I was a professional horse trainer for over 20 years. Competed at the highest levels and everything. Could get a horse to do anything I wanted whenever I wanted them to. These little creatures????? I can't even get them to potty on the damn pad. LMAO!!! I feel like an idiot. lol for goodness sakes, there has GOT to be a trick to this chihuahua training that I'm just missing.

There is no negative feedback that will work as well on a chihuahua than ignoring them! LOL They're such little attention whores! Yes, at first the behavior will escalate in an attempt to get your attention, but if you persist in ignoring their presence (don't even look at them!), they'll get the point.

Positive feedback works really well. Check out kikopup on youtube for some good behavior training techniques. And potty training a chihuahua is damn near impossible if he's a boy...LOL It will get better, but it may never be perfect, especially if it's cold outside.

I agree that negative feedback is about as useful as banging your head against a wall, however I think tone of voice goes a long way. Ignoring. oh my god. how in the hell do you ignore a chihuahua??? LOL!! they're all over the place and me. And it's so hard. even when they're naughty they're cute.

I must get serious!!!! I can laugh at them AFTER I ignore them. Right??? hehehe.

Potty on the pad is working pretty well. The older one has got it 97.62% of the time. The younger one poo-poos on the pad but hasn't quite learned that pee-pee is potty too. So she pee-pees on the hardwood floors :seeingstars:

I will check out those links. Thanks for the advice. I really need all the help I can get.

I use a sound that is hard to describe, like AA AA AA AA, the noise always gets Newton's attention. I only use it in the highest priority situations, and if he doesn't heed it, I will thump him (he hates that). So, I use that sound for curb aversion (he will not go near the street) and things of that priority level. It's when he KNOWS I mean business.

haha.. this is funny!

We just got a lil white chihuahua from my g/f's mom just the other day. Her name is Babygirl. I said the other night, "She looks like a gremlin!" hehe.. .

She likes to growl a lil, especially when it involves food and her little doggie biscuits. hehe.

[ruffryder]

I have grown up with chihuahua dogs all my life, boys and girls.

I am glad we got this lil white chihuahua, Babygirl. She was so infected with fleas. I felt so bad. As soon as we got her home and through a a very bad thunderstorm which she handled quite well, we bathed and scrubbed her for like an hour and then got some flea spray. Those little f*ckers were gone fast. thank God. I could see her in discomfort as she scratched at them and you could see them! It was awful, but she is fine now and happy.

I must say if you ever have to deal with this it is just awful, but know that the spray works along with a comb through with soapy water.

She really isn't a barker as we were told she may be. She's a good girl. Lays most of the day. She has a bed but since she got home with us she has resorted to the couch or our bed when we are in the bedroom. She has a cozy blanket at the foot of the bed where she will lay most of the time, but sometimes likes to explore up where we lay especially on our pillows above our heads and under the blankets.

She loves going for walks. She may notice noises or people but mostly she is about exploring her surroundings and finding places to mark. lol. There were kids around the other day. She wouldn't let them pet her. I noticed she is like that at first but once she warms up to someone, which usually doesn't take long, she will love to be petted, lay in laps, cuddle.

We were also told she is a runner. I only noticed this when we were headed out and I took time to lock the door. Ohh she was ready to go and wasn't waiting. LOL Another time was when I was headed with her to the laundry room she tried to dart and I think it was because it was very warm in there. I just picked her up and took her in with me and she was fine. We have to be careful though when something may frighten her because she is prone to dart. She wears a harness instead of a collar as it seems to be more comfortable and fit her better.

She has been a joy.. I have been off the last two days since we got her and now I'm wondering how she will handle being alone for about 5 hours of the day between when my honey goes to work and I get home. . When my honey has left for work the last two days she came running to the bed and plopped on with me. Today she sighed. :( I think she will be okay and will mostly snooze! Thankfully it is pretty quiet and peaceful here.

I can't wait to get her to parks and into the water!

My little girl Bella is mixed with beagle. She is adorable! We got her last fall. She had been in 4 homes in one year. I ended up taking her to the puppy er for rectal bleeding within 7 days..turns out it was stress! (go figure, 4 homes??) Anyway, she is in her forever home now..we were told she was 4, but we think she is old than that. I love it when she burrows under the covers of my bed. Half the time her little butt and tail are all you can see! I'm gonna try to post a picture in here,but I know I have one in galleries if you want to take a look.


Ok, tried several times... can't put one in.. not sure what I am doing wrong, but look in galleries and you will see her! lol

[thedivahrrrself]

Hola, chihuahua lovers!

Reigna Isabel has a necklace made of pink pearls. It's the most precious thing ever!

My food-crazy chi, Newton, today learned how to obey me when I say "stay" even if the food is right in front of his nose. I never expected him to learn this. Let's see if he can still do it tomorrow!

VIVA CHIHUAHUAS!

[KayCee]

Right! Ours likes burgers too and anything else she can scrounge up while going out to potty. LOL especially treats of doggie bacon mama gives her.

I have officially named our baby girl = aka grinch cause of her furry lil paws. haha.

Now I must go find her as it's time for bed and I think she's laying somewhere under my blankies. :P

Lost my baby girl Isabel this morning, so here are a few memories to share.

Isa as a pup:
http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc6/6332_100411496641325_4244382_n.jpg

Isa with her late husband, Sancho. :)
http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/13934_104413712907770_6958892_n.jpg

And, her favorite, fighting with Sanchito.
http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc6/6332_100411486641326_7140263_n.jpg

I hope he is waiting for her wherever he is. I miss them both.

Warmest hugs to you my friend :(

[starryeyes]

My little wee one has been attacking Justin at night. Her new name is "sheet shark" because when she is comfortable and you move you leg, she attacks it. Justin has been losing sleep over it, so we decided to put her in the guest bedroom to sleep. She cried and cried, poor thing but we stayed strong.

At about 3am I got up to use the bathroom and didn't hear anything, so I peaked my head in. Poor thing looked like she had been up all night, her ears were sticking straight up on high alert and she looked so freaked out. I told Justin, and she said to let her back in, so we did.

Then, this morning while driving to work, there was a chihuahua who has been hit by a car in the middle of the street. I called Justin upset and she said she saw it too and she never wanted to kick our girl out of the room again.

I guess the sheet shark is back for good.... Lol.

[starryeyes]

I am SO sorry. Warmest hugs to you during this time. :(Lost my baby girl Isabel this morning, so here are a few memories to share.

this sweet little boy wandered up onto the farm a few weeks ago. We posted ads and flyers but no one is coming forward. I'm guessing he's under two years for sure and about 4 pounds. He's so sweet and needs a special home.

Justin just got an 8 week old Chihuahua/Pekignese puppy! His name is Smudge! He is awesome and we LOVE him. My Chihuahua, aka Queen Mama is accepting him. My Aussie is still unsure so we are keeping him separated for now. We are so excited to welcome him into our home! :)

My chi babies on our road trip from Tucson to San Diego sleeping together in my lap. Justin had just gotten out of the car, so Romee was on high alert waiting for her to get back. They are the most precious babies!! I love when they sleep together. I just had my 10 year anniversary with Romee yesterday (she was a Christmas gift from my late grandmother) and Smudge just turned 3 months. :)
