A Diva Chihuahua

I just assumed that my Chihuahua was spoiled rotten but according to my adult child not only is she spoiled rotten, but she is a Diva. A Diva Chihuahua? Is is possible? Read on...

The Chihuahua Bill of Rights

If you have owned a Chihuahua, you will definitely understand the Chihuahua Bill of Rights for ownership which has been floating around the Internet for many many years. I printed it out and put it in my pet photo album years ago.

Includes Toys and wherever she
wants them

Don't take me home unless you are going to promise to love me and care for me everyday. I'll need food and water, a clean bed, but most of all I'll need your love and devotion. To ensure my health I will need regular vet care, and my immunization shots. Remember I am depending on you for everything. I am not a stuffed animal. I am a living, sensitive, feeling little creature, just like you. Don't leave me alone for long periods of time or I'll wonder why you've deserted me. When you're angry, talk to me, tell me your problems, but don't take your anger out on me. Please be patient with me while I'm learning. I may make mistakes sometimes. I may decide your best pair of shoes was bought especially for me for a wonderful chew toy- thanks mom! Or I may forget just where I am supposed to potty (btw, how long ago was it that you were in diapers?) If you brag on me, I'll do anything I can to please you, usually! In return for your time and your love I'll give you more love, more devotion, more laughs and more joy than you ever thought possible. I'll give you all my love. That's a promise humans rarely keep. I'll be just the same every day whether you're made or sad or really happy. You'll never have to wonder if I'll love you less today than I did yesterday. I'll love you as long as I live with all my heart and being.

The Chihuahua Breed Standard

The Chihuahua is the smallest breed of dog recognized by the American Kennel Club. At birth a Chihuahua puppy weighs approximately two to four ounces. They come in all sorts of varieties of color, coat (long or smooth) size and temperament! 

The Chihuahua Addiction

Today is the first day of A-Z and I thought I would start it with the Chihuahua addiction. Okay I have said it. I am addicted to the Chihuahua. Is there a support group or a twelve step program out there? In my years I have been owned by at least 5 of this breed and that isn't including the Chihuahua's I grew up with. I grew up with this breed and can remember how snappy they could be because they really didn't like kids but as an adult I <3 heart the breed. I am addicted! Owning the Chihuahua is like eating potato chips. It is hard to

A to Z Ideas and Support for Pet Bloggers

If you are reading this and you are a pet blogger that entered your blog in the April A-Z Blogging Challenge, stop by Canadian Nomads to read A to Z Challenge Ideas and Support for pet bloggers. They have some great ideas for pet blogging in the April challenge including a preparation hop taking place this month.

Here is a couple of questions I've answered from the list:

What is the most embarrassing thing you've done with your pet/human?
I used to have a little boy Chihuahua who crossed over the bridge many years ago. Whenever we had company he would hump his toys in front of company. One evening the preacher was visiting and he did that. I just ignored him, but the preacher I guess didn't because he asked, what is your little dog doing? I had to crate Tinky until our company left.

Besides blogging what are some of your favorite hobbies?
A couple of favorite hobbies would be reading and writing stories.

If we had a theme song what would it be? 

I have sung this song to all of my pets (past and present). When I sing this song to Elizabeth she stands on her hind legs and waves. 

Ready For Springtime

The Chihuahua and I are ready for spring to get here. The hubby has had to shovel a spot for her to go outside to potty and boy has that been a fight. Even though she has a jacket on she spends most of the time looking at us shaking and probably wondering what the heck we are thinking. Thank God she goes to paper, pee pads and is litter trained because a couple of big snows

Would be a lot like a Where's Waldo? When the snows are too deep we couldn't even tie pork chops to snowmen to get her out the door. We are ready for spring and taking our walks! I've also been really busy getting ready for the April Blogging Challenge. This is the first year I've attempted to enter two but hey it is called a Challenge for a reason. Not many from the A-Z link list has stopped by. I think a total of three but just in case you are stopping by from that list I posted Lessons From An A-Z Survivor on my other blog that you may wish to read.

Coming Soon!

If you've been visiting this blog you can see that my owner is slacking in keeping up here. She has another blog that keeps her pretty busy besides her job which is important because it get's me Kibbles in my bowl. I can't complain though, my food and water bowl is always filled; and I get the bestest bedtime snack before going to sleep at night. Whenever she set's down, I make sure I am setting on her lap for lots of pat's and kisses. My hooman says she is entering this blog in something called  April A-Z Blogging Challenge. She blogged in it before on her other blog and promised me that after it was over she'd work on mine a little. Well you see how far we got don't ya?  'bout as far as she can throw a stick. Shhh don't tell her I said that though! She is a procrastinator. This year she says, "I'm entering "Tails of the Chiwawa" in the challenge. Now I'm just shaking my head and my tail and wish I could tell her, "Girl, you so funny!" If I could have found the fetch button on the computer I would have already blogged a few things, but I worry about stuff like Carpal Paw Syndrome. Now my hooman just told me that this April thing is going to be about as fun as a car ride so I am all for that! I am helping her come up with some fun stories for each letter of the Alphabet, based on Chihuahua! Yep that's me, Ms. Elizabeth. Hoping you will stop by every now and again to check out the fun things we have come up with so see ya soon!
