What part of Maine? I live in the Orono area, maybe we can schedule a play date. Floyd is pure bred chihuahua, but weighs 9.5 lbs. He was the largest in his litter by half. His next biggest sibling is 4.5 lbs. He loves to play and since we moved to Maine I am sure he misses his sister in V

Thank you for a good laugh on Sunday morning. I surely needed it. I am sitting in my office waiting for a friend so I can study for my Spanish mid-term. I can't study at home much because of the dogs. My chi wants to sit in my lap while I read. If it were just sitting there it would not be

I have had my chi (Floyd) all his life (almost 4 years now) and he rarely barks. My cockapoo, Coco (cocker spaniel/poodle) barks more. Sometimes when Coco gets started Floyd will join in but usually he just looks at her as if to say "WHAT?" Floyd will also let out little woofs if he gets exci

In order to get a new state law you would need to contact your representative to the state house. In some states these people are called representatives in other states they are delegates. You should be able to find out who yours is in the telephone book or online for your particular area (ci

Christie, Thank you, I needed that at the end of the work day. She really loves her chicken. What a little doll??? I can't get enough of Chis. I think they stay home and dream up new cute things to entertain us. --- In Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com, "vtcnix" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yea

Floyd has Rosa. We aren't sure what Rosa is but Floyd sure loves her a lot. I was able to find a new one when she had just had enough. Now he has two and still humps Coco. They are both fixed. We call Rosa his hump buddy. --- In Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com, Sandy Kramer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

My chi, Floyd, is 3.5 years old. His ears are usually erect, but if he is really warm (such as just coming out from the blankets on our bed) they will flop down. We always tease him and call him floppy ears until he cools down a little and they go back up. He will also go under the covers, g

Floyd is into anything we are. He puts on chapstick by licking my lips after I put it on. I don't leave anything where he or Coco can get into it. I learned my lesson. Floyd loves vegetable juice (V-8), iced tea, and iced coffee. He drinks them right out of the glass I am using, even ice c

Hi, Floyd does this sometimes when he is upset or anxious. It is just yellow bile (a product of the digestive system). He also does the reverse sneeze when he's excited. Sometime the reverse sneeze will get so bad he coughs up bile. Try not to worry. Lisa (in Maine) --- In Chihuahuas@yahoo

A long night but so worth it. There is nothing cuter than Chi pups. Ah, I remember when Floyd was so little we had to carry him down the stairs to do his "business" and buy a step stool to carry from bedroom to living room so he could be with Mommy and Daddy. Sounds like a wonderful litter.
