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

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!
