Your Gigi is lucky to have you also. I know what it means to spend time on the computer doing research for a sick animal to try and find the correct diagnosis. I had a spider Monkey for twelve years and the last two years of her life I was doing the very same thing. At first she was diagnosed as Cushings Didease. But in the end she was diagnosed with a pituitary tumor(specifically a prolactinoma.). It was a terrible two years . She passed in 2002 and it is still a difficult subject for me to talk about.A part of me died with Becky that day! I emailed primate vets all over the world and got many responses and suggestions. One vet diagnosed her correctly, from another country. Luckily I had a vet who listened to me and paid attention to the information I gathered

Yes, I agree, sometimes things are meant to be.  I am glad you found them and they found you.

Mary they are the most beautiful bunch of misfits I have ever seen! Lucky for all of you, that you found each other. God knew just where he wanted each one of them so they could be loved and taken care of when others would have discarded them because they aren't perfect. That's how I feel about Gigi, her BYB no longer wanted her because she couldn't produce any more without a c-section (and she has several scars to prove it too) and passed her on to a college kid that knew nothing at all about dogs, least of all a chi, and she too only had her for a month, now I have her forever. Poor Gigi had a hard time of when she surprised me and went into heat during the first week that I got her, and then after the spay surgery, she started to have seizures on and off for almost a year, until I finally figured out why, thanks to everyone's input in this group and a lot of research, because 4 different vets didn't know why. She has been seizure free for many months now and is truly a blessing in my life.
 
Princess too came into my life when I was going through a difficult time, and she helped to pull me through it. Dogs are the best antidote for many things that ail us, they give us a reason to go on and be there for them, and I have always believed that God's hand is in it from the beginning for both the human and the dogs.

I live in Missouri. I am a devoted Chihuahua fan!! I am disabled so am home most of the time. My first Chihuahua was Rosey. It was love at first sight. Rosey is five years old and two and a half pounds. Everyone thought she had the liver shunt disease, but I had to have her. She is a sassy five year old now. Shorthair mostly white with a little brown and blacj spots. I had gallbladder surgery and stayed with a friend. She had just rescued a male tricolor Chihuahua four pounds neglected/abused, he was afraid of everyone and everything, he is five years old now was three when I got him. Neeko slept with me everynight and when I went home He came with me. I still can not allow others around him. I either hold him or put him in a different room. He has a hip/back leg problem vet. says it could be a spinal issue or a brain issue. Either way there is nothing we can do. He still squats because he can not hike. He can not jump up on things his rear is too weak but he can jump down. He is the love of my life. Then there is Cinnamon I am her fifth home. Her tail is broken and bent in two places. She is my sweetheart.Very insecure and needy. Very devoted to me. She is 3 years old and four pounds She is a shorthair and a deep reddishbrown/cinnamon color. Then there is Missy. She is two years old. three pounds She has asthma. She is a blue shorthair.Loves everyone and an absolute little angel..
My latest addition is a longhaired white with a small stripe of black. She is seven months old. Born with a bobtail. weighs about a pound and a half. I love all my misfits with all my heart.

Hello Gloria,
 
Thank you for your short introduction and for watching my photomap.
I recently joined several parrot-groups, but yesterday I desided it’s about time to also join a Chihuahua-group.
