Training 2008-04-26 21:55:44 I have found over the years that there is just one, simple, little, thing that will guarantee a happy relationship between your dog and yourself. That one little, simple thing is training. Sounds simple enough does it not. Then why is it that it never seems to work as well as promised. I think that usually we expect more from the process of training than what is visible right away. That and t Read more:Training
Spring is here 2008-04-20 21:30:59 Well it is definitely spring, and the Chi's know it. I have to mow the lawn on a regular basis, and none of the kids like the mower. Of course the first thing that has to be done is to walk the yard and pick up all the toys they have taken outside to play with. They are not happy though when I jump on the mower and start it up. They promptly run inside and hide around mom until I'm done. I wi Read more:Spring
Chi's are feeling needy 2008-04-20 21:30:34 The kids are feeling a little needy this week. For some reason they are all competing for attention. It's not uncommon for one to be up on your lap getting a little love, and have another come jumping up trying to force their way into the situation. Tia of course is the most forward, being our little Diva, she always feels she has to be the center of attention. We have started calling her Sassy
Part of the family 2008-04-20 21:30:19 The Chi's, are definitely part of our family. They are like children, always running, play and needing love. You have to care for them as you do children, and protect them from the dangers of the world the same as small children. There is one advantage over children though. They give unconditional love, with out judgement or reservation.We treat ours just as if they were kids. they get fed at
David and Goliath 2008-04-20 21:30:02 We just recently had a new air conditioner installed. While the technicians were here, I had the kids put up in their rooms. I know what it's like when your trying to complete something very tiring, and there are dogs crawling all over you. I had sympathy for the tech's, and did not want to subject them to this annoying element of having pets around. The kids were not very happy about it, and made Read more:David

Summer Fun 2008-04-20 20:53:41 The kids love the summer weather. They get to spend so much time outside, running around, chasing each other, and then of course the meet and greet as people walk down the road. The Chi's seem to relish meeting new people, and seeing others that regularly walk down the street. They also seem to enjoy my mowing the lawn. Not necessarily as I'm doing it, but just afterward. They run out and rol Read more:Summer
The trials of bad weather 2008-03-18 18:52:19 The kids are being a little hard to deal with today. They are restless, and don't feel like going outside. Who can blame them, we have gotten almost 6 inches of rain. This brings up the unpleasant and sometimes unavoidable circumstances related to the weather
. The Chi's DO NOT LIKE RAIN, and will try everything possible to avoid going out in it. At times you have to w

Activity has increased 2008-03-09 18:10:20 The Chi’s have been very active for the past couple of weeks. They seem to be getting into everything, and finding stuff outside that I have no idea where it came from. I am going to have to figure out a way to train them not to chew or eat stuff that we don’t give them. Our neighbors now have permanent visitors who have a full grown Rotty, and a Golden Retriever. The funny part is that ou Read more:Activity
Two Videos 2008-03-02 19:53:28 Ok I signed up at YouTube, and uploaded two videos. Lets see if it works. One is of Peanut playiny hand chase, and the other is of all of them vieing for a piece of cheese.
Finally a New Post 2008-02-29 22:43:44 First off, let me apologize for not posting as often as I think I should have. I really wanted to make at least a couple of posts a week, but this simply is not possible due to other activities I am currently involved with. I will start to make a post once a week, which is probably good for this blog. It’s not that I don’t have enough material; lord knows the kids keep us laughing. The pr Read more:Finally

The Enduring Chihuahua 2008-02-23 19:18:25 Chihuahua’s are a very unique bread. For an animal that is so small, it’s amazing how they can be such an enduring dog. They seem to weave their way into your family and life. To illustrate this, let me see if can explain how I personally came to find them such wonderful dogs.Now to put this into perspective, not so long ago, my opinion of Chihuahua’s was by no means flattering. I had always Read more:Chihuahua

Broken Record 2008-02-18 20:27:03 I have been pretty lax on posting here lately. Sometimes, I think that what the Chi’s are doing is not enough. I don’t want to sound like I am repeating the same stories over and over again. I thought for this post I would add some cool links for those of you who are Chihuahua Crazy. I have been checking out all kinds of neat places on the net. And found some real interesting places. And a fe Read more:Broken

Hope you get a laugh out of it, I know we did. It definately has Chihuatude!!!!Three handsome male dogs are walking down the street when they see a beautiful, enticing, female Poodle.

Take the weather into account 2008-02-13 01:02:31 I am glad, for the sake of my dogs, that I am not back home right now. They are suffering some very fierce winter storms. I can remember what those were like. As a kid it meant you had to stay inside and entertain yourself. As an adult it meant some very cold bitter work. Because of the work I did back then, it always meant cold days where you had to dress in layers.Thinking about it now, I don’ Read more:weather
Safety First 2008-02-10 21:56:44 Chihuahua’s are small, and therefore require some attention while outside. I have recently seen a number of hawks flying around and hunting for mice. I suddenly realized that two of my dogs are small enough to be potential victims. I had heard in the past about small dogs being carried of by hawks, and wondered if it ever really happened. I searched the Internet, and found one such story. The fo Read more:Safety

Helpful Paws 2008-02-09 23:04:49 Never try to work on, or more specifically, under a vehicle in the yard with your Chi’s. You get more help than you want. I was changing the oil on the truck today, and had all of the Chi’s supervising. Of coarse Tia and Peanut felt they had to help, by taking the rage and playing with it. Annie just decided that my ears needed a good, very thorough cleaning. Babe thought I was down there so s
Warm Days 2008-02-09 22:54:06 It was a beautiful day today. The kids spent as much time outside as possible. Babe likes to play a game with Destiny, the Red Heeler. They run up and down the fence, barking at each other as if they were going to tear each other apart. It is really harmless, but to the casual observer it can look vicious. It is amazing to me how many people are more afraid of Chihuahuas than larger dogs, at times
No title 2008-02-06 22:21:01 Today was cold for the Chi’s; they try very hard to stay inside when it’s cold or wet. You would think they are afraid to get wet. I do understand the cold, most of them don’t have enough hair. At times you have to watch them to make sure they go outside to take care of business. Our two smallest are litter box trained. Peanut and Callie both use the litter box, I was amazed at this, but th
The Race is On 2008-02-05 19:23:49 There is no peace in the house this eavening. Tia and Teco are running full tilt around the coffee table. First its Tia chasing Teco for a couple of rounds, then they turn around the other direction, and its Teco chasing Tia. This generally goes on for about 15 minutes, but they seem to have a lot of energy today. Peanut is sitting up on the couch watching from a safe distance. Its real cute,
No title 2008-02-03 18:08:59 Our kids prefer the stuffed toys to all others. They love to throw them around and play keep away from each other. When we bring home a new toy, especially one with a sweaker in it, Babe claims it. She will keep the toy, gaurding it with her life until the sweaker is broken. Then once the sweaker quits working, its ok for the others to play with it. All toys are promptly taken outside, and strewn
Seat Belts Required Please 2008-02-02 18:10:30 Say hello, and then a prayer to Sir Gizmo!He is our poster boy for travel kennels and seat belts. Unfortunately He was riding in the car with my wife when she had an accident. He was sitting in the passenger seat, when both airbags deployed. He received a sever back injury he was never able to recover from. We tried many things, and soon even the pain medicine quit working. Unfortunately we ha Read more:Belts

Continuing the Introductions 2008-02-02 17:33:03 All right to continue with the introductions. Sable Moon is our beautiful red smooth coat girl. She has a very unusual chihuatude, being that she was at some point in her life, I believe, abused be a man. The reason I say this is that she is afraid of most men, and won’t let them get close to her. It took me a little more than a year to gain her trust on a limited basis. She now permits me to p
