I am glad she did well with her spay.  That's great news!  She will whine because she doesn't want to be confined in her crate.  Don't feel guilty, you are only doing what's best for her so she doesn't hurt herself.  She doesn't know that if she jumps around, that she will hurt herself.  So, she

IMO, it might be better to choose an adult Chi or at least an older puppy so that you can know what their personality and temperament are like.  If you choose a young puppy, make sure you meet the parents of the pup and see how the puppy was raised (and socialized).  If there are a few to choose

Some Chis can make good lap dogs and make goog travel companions (depending on their personality and how they are raised).  They are small enough, that's for sure. Every breed has their pros and cons, though.  I would research the breed and find out as much as you can about them before you make

Cat food is not healthy for dogs at all.  They are a different species and have different nutritional needs.  What I would do is feed the cats and kittens up high where Ginger can't reach it or in a different room than her.  And feed Ginger her own dog food.  And, that way she will get the nutri

Ginger has that same nasty habit. She gets the cat's poop out of the litter box, either eats it or leaves it for me to find w/my foot. I found Deter at my local PetSmart for under $20.00. My question is this, the cats, kittens and the chi eat out of the same bowl, they are all eating WalMar
