We have a lovely little Chihuahua 4.5 pounds, and she is a great dog. She will soon be 9 months old, and one of the best parts of our life!! We also have 2 Chihuahua mixes. And they make most of my days so good!! All of my dogs are rescues. The two older ones came from pretty bad situations. Now we are all a family. We are blessed.

I cannot believe that chihuahuas are the second most put down breed. My heart bleeds with that fact. Any dog that has to be put down just because there are not enough people who really know what pet shops and puppy farms (or one in the same in most cases) are causing. I love my Chihuahua and BEG EVERYONE TO RESCUE RESCUE RESCUE...... thx Lisa

Cathy, I love your newsletters. I love chihuahuas. I have one of my own. His name is Brownie. He just turned 15 in December. I've never planned on having any dogs, let alone a chihuahua. My son, being 10 years old at that time, adored the taco bell Chi. He decided to have one. He insisted to go to the petstore and showed me a little, black 1lb furball. I love dogs In general and I didn't want to see him because I know my heart. Well.... Brownie stole my heart. He was not a rescue but he rescued me because I needed him at that time without me knowing it. It's been 15 years, I love him so much, he choose me to be his owner. He is my little furbaby. I can't imagine my life without him. He is very smart, doesn't bark actually and he tolerates other people. I know one thing - he saved me when I needed him the most.

Cathy, live receiving the emails. The memes are great! I'm sorry for all who have lost there babies it's so hard to let go. You feel empty and your lap is cold. My prayers are with you. I couldn't believe when I found out Chi's are the second most euthanized dogs behind pits. Can't wrap my brain around it they are the best! Look forward to the next email!?
