Hello,
I'm a volunteer for Valhalla Canine Rescue in Winlock, WA. I'm also have 4 chihuahua mix dogs of my own. I recently fostered a chihuahua for Valhalla and had her for nearly 5 months. She was found with three other dogs (all chihuahuas)dumped on the side of a highway. The 4 of them are quite feral and are terrified of humans. Do any of the Chihuahua rescues here have the resources to take on these 4 dogs to work with them? Valhalla is like so many other rescues and is full to the brim (she accepts all breeds and even takes in cats and farm animals). We just want the best help for these poor dogs to make them as adoptable as possible.
Thank you,
Beth P.

My Chihuahua bear recently passed away yesterday, August 13. I would like to post a little comment on your “gone but not forgotten“ Page that you have. How do I go about doing this? Thank you so much.

My Tiddles almost died when she was 2 (she is now 12). as result I have to be very careful about he low fat diet. When he tummy problem flares up her tummy make awful noises. The flare up is usually something she has eaten she should have, like licking bird droppings in the driveway. I am 85 and it is difficult for me to follow her when she is outside. Is she in pain when this happens (she really doesn't seem to be uncomfortable, but I worry about this). Is it alright to give her a dose of benedryl to clam her and her tummy?

It won't hurt her to give her Benadryl (1 mg per pound of body weight). I'm not sure it will help with that though.
