  1. CATHY , Trixxie’s picture was up for about 15 min then is not there any more. My kiddos could not see it so I posted on my timeline thinking that might help but it didn’t. THANKS. This is a great site. The pictures are all precious.

  2. Hi Cathy.I was after some help with my chi.She is three and after one year off her being with us she stated being scared of shadows.At first she would cry and hide now she just barks.The vet put her on tablets that did nothing.now she sees shadows every where. most of the time it hers.Taking her in the car is a nightmare.
    I wonder if there is any body that can help me with this.

    • Hi Suzanne,

      I can’t help with the being scared of shadows, however my chi is terrified of riding in a car. I asked the vet about this and he told me to give her a child’s dose of dramimane with some food. It makes her a little sleepy but not bad. It is definitely a big improvement over the way it was before.

    • @suzanne monty,
      Homeopathic Aconitum Nap 9 C has done wonders. No need for another dose

  4. Here is a picture of my babies. Monster and Stella. They are both rescues and weigh only 3lbs!!! Thy are 2 and 4 years old !!!

  5. My sweet baby boy Dillinger will be one on April fifth! Love him to pieces!

  6. This is Bella, my 3 y/o rescued chihuahua. I have had her for almost 2 years; it was love at first sight. She is one of a kind chihuahua. She loves her bling-bling dress.

  7. I am making snuggle,pouches, can I sell them throughout u at all? They r high quality

    • Hello– I would like to know more — I need a snuggle pouch but I’d have to send you her measurements– she is rectangular !!!! LOL yes fat–but still a rectangle with a wide chest — LOL I haven’t been able to get anything for her but a blanket since last year and its too difficult to carry her == I am disabled – I can walk but it’s all I can do to get ME there let alone carry her to the Vet or grooming — sooo I am on a limited income but still — we can work out something == $ 10 X 3 stolll equals $30 better than a -0-

    • @Kim kelso, I’m very interested in the pouch’s to cary my smallest chi.
      Please let me know if they are still available please.

  8. They are very sweet and loving.

  9. Their names are Bandit, Lily, and Pumpkin

  10. Update on Rocky & Tinky. Rocky was released yesterday to go home from the ER Hospital. But they choose to keep him with Tinky for morale support. They are so bonded and love each other. Tinky is doing much better and was taken off fluids this morning, and seems to be doing great. If all goes well I will finally get to bring them home this afternoon.

    Barbara Howard and very happy Chihuahua mom. Thank God for all of his blessings.

    • That’s wonderful! They look great!

  14. Hi everyone here– such beautiful furbabies and their moms== me too — I have a problem w/mine–I got her from foster care over 4 yrs ago– she was and is highly trained and the best and smartest dog I have owned- this is my first real Chi– have had mixs since I was a little girl= the problem is ? she is getting real mean natured — its only when she is asleep and I move when she’s asleep beside me or change my poition in bed– she is 18 lbs so she’s a big girl –we have her on a diet now – two weeks ago she had dental surgery
    and lost 17 teeth== we were able to avoid that 4 yrs ago but time matches on == she had a bad gum infection at the time– I thought the mean-ness was from her mouth hurting her — but nope she just gets so ornery — I love her to pieces — she has actually bitten me three times once on the chin — I pushed when she growled bec I couldn’t believe she would actually bite me but she did — anyway — I disciplined her and she knows better – once she gets awake and knows its me after growling and snapping she stops and licks my fingers — so does anyone have any ideas as to how to deal with her ?? part of me doesn’t want to do anything but love her and the other –well you know — when a little sweet thing like usually is bites and snarls so ?? I cn barely stand it — course now I don’t know where the behavior started or who did what before I got her — her owner died and the husband said he couldn’t keep her bec of the grand children– I know this behavior only started over a yr ago — so here I am — breaks my heart ?? any suggestions ?? I never had an old dog before- I took her bec of her age and no one wanted her bec she was old === that made me sad — I wanted her immediately —

  15. I’m Abby. Can my chi please be chi of the hour? About three years ago, I found her wondering around the neighborhood. She was underweight, and clearly hungry. It took about three days, but my daughter and I were eventually able to catch her. She has been my constant companion ever since. I love her.,

  16. This is Ginger…she says its not time to get up yet.

  17. This is Chloe, my 9yr. old chihuahua. She may only be 3lbs. but she gives me a ton of love!

    • Not the last one this one please…

  21. Hi Cathy, I have heard so many stories about what to feed our chi’s we have a 2 year old at 3lbs, and a new male at 6 months old at 2 lbs, we heard that Performatrim is a better food than Royal Cainn can someone out there let me know which is best or are the about the same. I had my felmale on Royal Cainn and she liked it but kept eating her poop but then after I switched she still eats her poop but not as much now I think it was just a stage she went through now I don’t let her see me pick it up so its getting better, I also have them on moist food and mix it with the dry as per my vet suggested it. I will show you some pictures of our little joys as we love them both to bits, they are both fixed and the female(Citeria) is my baby and the male(Teddy) is my spouses. Hope you share them they are so loveable I just never knew that Chi’s were so affectionate toward their owners. Thanks Rick

  22. OH yes — they are really affectionate– very loyal and all those great things– glad you have two– they are good company for each other– mine is old and its only her and me– she doesn’t tolerate others — she doesn’t share either — I only got her when she was 9 so that ship sailed– enjoy your fur babies !! They are both precious and beautiful ~~ I am happy for you and your spouse

    • Hi Brenda,
      I have your chi will be Chi of the hour at 2:00 AM EST on July 11th. If you can’t find it after that time, email me at cathy@ilovemychi.com and I’ll send you the link.

  31. I am begging you to stop sending me posts. I have reported you to FB and am marking all your posts as spam.

    • I can not stop sending you posts (I’m assuming you mean through Facebook). Only you can do that and it’s very easy to do. All you need to do is go to the Facebook page and where you had “Liked” it, just click it again so it unlikes it. Here’s the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/ILoveMyChihuahuaClub

  32. I have a 2lb who just turned 2 this July5th and he is spoiled rotten and he runs me and he knows it but he won’t let me trim his nails I mean he screams bloody murder and won’t hold still and his paws are so tiny that there hard to hold on to because he screams and wiggles so much I can’t keep a hold of them and I’m afraid to squeeze them to much while he is fighting for fear I’ll crush his little bones. I’ve had someone holding him while I had a hold of his paw and trying to cut the nail without cutting it close and hurt him and he still fights way to bad. I don’t know what to do and his nails are so long and need cut badly before his dueclaws that wasn’t ever removed grow into his skin. Can anyone recommend or help with advice about this please? I was thinking of taking him to the vet to get them cut but I’m scared that they will have to give him something to relax or sleep and he is so little I don’t want to do that every time and I’m scared it will hurt him or he might not wake up or come to

    • I would take him to a professional groomer. They are experienced with this and they usually don’t charge much for just nails. Your vet can do it too without having to give him any meds. I know for me personally, my son has to help me with my chis’s nails. He puts her in a football hold where her head is tucked in under his arm and I go behind him and clip her nails.

      • Well I’ve tried this as well but you can’t keep a hold of him because he fights so hard and he is so little that you can’t hold him to tight because you will break a rib or his leg because he is only around 1and half pounds to 2 pounds and his head is so little that it fits in my hand and I can close my hand completely where my fingers are touching my palm and his paws are literally the size of my pinkies and I have small hands seriously. I only wear a size 4 ring. So I guess I’ll just have to take him to a vet because he freaks out when you just try to look at his nails, silly little chihuahua baby boy ☺

  33. Cathy
    How do I post a photo of my babies so I can talk about them and share there life

    • Frances, If you’d like to submit a photo for Chi of the Day, you can email it to me at claycath@gmail.com or post it on our page (in the comment box on our page, just look for the camera icon, click it and upload). Either way, because of the volume, there is a backlog so it will be about a month before it goes up live on the page.

  34. How do I post through you directly to get my question answered? My post isn’t being seen on here and I have a question for those who posted about coconut oil for my chihuahua.

  35. I have to move and I have 2 chi girls that need a good home, Molly is almost 4 and she is very loving and wants all the attention she can get.
    Ci Ci is almost 3 and she is a very good girl love attention and her belly rubbed. It would be best if the girls could stay together, they really love each other.

  36. 3.75 lb Sweet pea would love to be Chi of the day!
    She is a total love bug, she is 3 years old and from North Idaho.

  37. These are my sweet babies, Phoebe and Chandler. They’ve been riding on the back of my Harley since they were each 8 weeks old. They love to ride!

    • We can tell they are really loved– just look at their outfits !! even goggles to protect their eyes !! BRAVO to you– as long as they are safe with you ? I say great– some folks won’t agree but it’s your choice of course– I’m happy for you and them !!

    • That photo is too cute. I have to make a meme out of this Robin!

      • They are always safe! They are our babies

  38. I have a question..how often should a chihuahua be bathed? I bath mine about every 6 weeks. If I bathe her more often her skin gets dry. How often is healthy?

  39. I have heard some bathe theirs every two weeks.

  40. I bathe mine about once a month Lynette though another one of my dogs that gets kind of smelly, I bathes every 2 weeks.

  41. Hi cathy I’m rather new to this site but enjoy it, I wanted to add a photo. Of my new ch but can’t do it at all, can you tell me what I’m doing wring,or what I’m missing. Thanks.

    • Polly are you trying to post a photo on this website or the facebook page?

    • Thanks Pete. I got your story from my contact message. I’ll send you a link when it’s published in a few weeks.

  43. Can’t find a way to download a picture. So glad to be a member of a club for such a loving breed, Thank You Michael, Papi and Pinky(his younger sister, she’s a Boston Terrier)

  44. Hi Cathy…..Just a quick note from all of us. We are so Happy to Be Chi for the Day. It thrilled the kids, so they got an extra treat(lol,no not spoiled at all). They both want you go know they are to be big brother and big sister….yes we are getting a baby. A friend of mines Chi had a litter of 6, unfortunately he lost 4 after about 4 or 5 days. So we are sad aboht that, but we get one of the 2 still with us, he took them to the vet for a cbeck up

  45. Ugh….sorry don’t knkw what happened, we are going to take some pictures wben the new baby comes to live with us. Now as I was saying the vet said they were really a large litter for such a small breed. They weighted right at 2oz each, so tiny babys. It will be here in mid May when It becomes part kf our family. Not sure why the 4 died, maybe momma wasn’t giving enough milk…,could be anything. We wish you a Great Week and all Kinds of Chi Love. I am attaching a picture of all puppies before we lost the 4. Thanks for Having Such a Great Group……..Regards, Michael, Papi and Pinky…don’t have the baby a name yet…Thanks Again for All Your Help…..heres my number if you ever need it….918-378-2790

    • That’s so sad that 4 of the puppies died Michael! Keep us updated about your upcoming new family member!

  46. Meet Ethel, my super baby E.

  47. Sisters Lucy and Ethel!

    • They are both adorable Dana!

  48. Just some Lucy then!

  49. For some reason I couldn’t post on the comments section of the seizure page.

    My question is can my chi baby have what seems to be partial seizures in clusters? I have had my Lexi 7 weeks and tonight was the first time I have ever seen her like that. Like the bottom half of her body was convulsing for a few seconds, stop, she would look around and then it would happen again. She did this about 10-12 times but less than 5 minutes. I’m worried, scared, flabbergasted and on high alert. Any possible idea????????

    • Cluster seizures are common but I haven’t heard of it being in the bottom half of the body before. I’d let your vet know as soon as possible about this Tiffiney.

  50. Good morning!

    Where do I send pictures of my sweet Lola for Chi of the Day?

    Thank you,
    Susan

  51. Hi I have a problem looking for help. I have a 5yr old Chi and he has stop using his pee pads. He will pee next to them but not on them. With me working long hours the pads are necessary. I’ve had him since birth. His brother uses the pads. Also 5yrs old. Any suggestions? He sometimes holds it till I get home but is that good for him to hold it that long?

    • I think I would add a pee pad where he is actually going since he seems to prefer that spot.
      Another other option is to isolate him in a crate or small space but since you work long hours it would be better that he has access to pee pads. It’s okay if he holds it since you do have the pads available. He knows he can use those if needed.

  52. I am trying to locate a chihuahua puppy. Either sale or adopt. Can you recommend a breeder?

    • Sorry Lynda, I don’t know of any.

  53. I’m unable to download that file so would you like to tell me which images you think I have stolen?
    I do not steal images. The images I use have been bought from photo stock sites, contributed to me by readers or facebook fans or taken by me.

  54. Hello I have already but I would like to get another can you let me know where can I get one a little boy. I love them

  56. My little girl will not use the potty pads anymore she goes on the bathroom floor. This started a couple of months ago have no idea why. She’s afraid to walk into the bathroom by herself so I walk her in there and close the door otherwise she runs out. She never used to be like this & I don’t know what to do anymore she’s about 11yrs old.

    • Something must have spooked her in the bathroom. Is there anywhere else you can move her potty area?

  63. It looks like you’ve misspelled the word “compe” on your website. I thought you would like to know :). Silly mistakes can ruin your site’s credibility. I’ve used a tool called SpellScan.com in the past to keep mistakes off of my website.

    -Kyle

    • Thanks for telling me Kyle, but I can’t find where I misspelled it. Can you tell me where you found it?

  64. My Frisco is only 4 months….How do I get him to stop biting….he is very smart but when he gets excited that’s all he does
    I’ve tried to reprimand him but it only works for the moment…then he starts running around again and comes back and starts the same thing
    Thank you,
    Stacey

    • Part of it is the age. Puppies are natural biters. They are teething and biting is also how they communicate. They usually are too excited, want to play or want attention.
      First of all, be sure Frisco has plenty of chewing toys and things he can chew on.
      When he does bite, tell him no in a stern (but not loud) voice and put him away from you where he won’t get the attention he’s wanting such as a crate, playpen or another room. Give it about 2-5 minutes and then let him out.
      With pups, it takes consistent training but eventually they will learn.

  65. Hi Cathy. My name is Mappie van der Stelt. I just lost my chihuahua 11 years old and just before xmas she was so sweet and loveable, I’m still grieve somewhat but I like so badly to have another one and I just walked on you site what a cuties I love them all. Are you in America or Canada. I’m in Canada now 40 years. I’m a senior but still active. I like to know how much you ask for your puppies I love to have 2 but it’s how mush they cost. Could you please let me know. If it is to much then I only can look on your website I keep looking at it so sweet. I cry now to much because I have nothing to look after and miss my sweet Mischa very much. She got so sick and I don’t want the animals to suffer.

    I wait for your answer.
    Thank you for your beautiful job your doing. I was praying last to God and ask for one, will she I hope he heard me.

    • Hi Mappie,
      Sorry, I don’t sell dogs. I just have my own 3 that are my pets. I’m in the U.S.
      I’m so sorry you lost your little chi!

  66. I have a new dog a rotty her tip of to guess always hangs out. Do you think she has neurologic issues?cal

    • Probably not. It could just be the way her palate has formed. Next time she is the at the vet, ask them about it but most likely it’s nothing to worry about.

  67. Hi!
    I’d like to submit a photo of my Loucee, a long-haired Chihuahua that’s 13 years old. How would I do this?

    • I’m so glad you enjoy them Kathy. I have a Jazzy too, but she’s a sugar glider.

  75. We were wondering if you would be interested in helping us raise funds by listing our gofundme’s on your website as we aim as a company to try to help all pets with medical bills the owners can’t afford

    • If you send me the link, I’ll be glad to put it up on our Facebook page.

  76. I was wondering if you will have any purebred apple head female, short haired, Merle puppies for sale?

    • Sorry Karen, I don’t sell them. I just write about them.

  77. Congratulations on your new fur baby Bear. He’s beautiful! How nice the other babies are good with a new little brother that’s Awesome. Enjoy him.

  78. Just adopted a 2 year old chihwinnie and her previous owner crate trained her which I do not do with my animals and she will not go potty in the yard when I let her out, what can I do.

  79. Hi i have a beautiful 11 year old chi. We have never had any problems wuth him but the last month when my partner goes to work and gets his lunch out of the fridge, our chi zooms out of bed spitting and growling and tring to savage his feet.
    We have tried being firm with a no but nothing has worked.
    Any ideas would help stopping this behaviour.

    • That’s really weird that he would just start this for no reason. I can only think of 2 things to try. One is to have a spray bottle of water by the fridge, and if No doesn’t work, spray him with the water. The shock should make him back off. The other is to try CBD oil. It has a calming effect.

  80. I really can’t stand my dogs “Chi scream/bark” when she sees new people or dogs. As I lift her out of the car, as soon as she stands on the ground she starts. This is very annoying. Otherwise my little Freckles is a beautiful little dog.

    • Yeah I can see how that would be annoying.

  81. My little man Whiskey (11 years old) has really bad allergies. The vet put him on apoquel and I’ve found out that it’s very addictive and has bad side effects. I want to take him off of it and was curious if any of you have done this with your dog and could give me suggestions. I bought some CBD drops and planned on starting those.

    • Both Lucas and Ziggy have allergies and my vet gave them a shot that lasts up to 8 weeks. I think it’s called Cytapoint. It’s working well for them.

  82. Hi Kathy, I just thought I’d pass on to you… we have a little guy who has intestinal problems. He constantly had loose runny stools for no apparent reason. I did a lot of reading and found slippery elm as a good supplement for puppies and dogs that have issues with intestinal upset. I started him on it twice a day with meals and he improved within a few days. We kept this up for a couple of months and he was having normal stools all the time, I then stopped and the loose runny stools returned immediately. So put him back on as before, no more loose stools. He has been on it for close to two years now, but only once a day and is doing fine. I will mention I also used a probiotic for about 18 months. It is recommended for humans and animals alike to use slippery elm to help the gut heal. It may be worth a try.
    Heather T.

    • Thanks Heather! How much of the Slippery Elm do you give him?

  83. Aww, thank you Cathy for having my little terror’s, Chanel and Willow as Chi of the Week.

    • You are very welcome Wendy!

  84. Hello,
    My boy doesn’t even like his kibble in a bowl. He prefers it right on the carpet next to his water. Little stinker.

    Beth

    • LOL, chis can be a mystery.

  85. Hi,

    I thought I would mention that it looks like the word “compe” is spelled incorrectly on your website. I’ve seen some tools to help with problems like this such as SpellAlert.com or WebsiteChecker.com. I just thought you should know!

    • Where are you seeing that word Fred?

  86. My chihuahua has been having issued with her back leg. She is not wanting to put weight on it. She is overweight about 7 lbs. Took her to vet and she just says it’s because she is overweight. Jow do i get her to exercise and move around when she hurts to walk on it.

    • Did the vet give her anything for the pain? If not, I’d call and ask for a prescription for her. Or you CAN GET HER SOME CBD oil. That helps with pain. Swimming helps too for dogs (and people) who have painful limbs if you have access to a pool and the weather is warm enough.

  87. dose anyone know where i can get little Chihuahua ???

  88. I want to unsubscribe

    • Unsubscribe from what Shirley? I just checked on the email list and you aren’t on there.

  89. Trying to trap two young chihuahuas that are not exactly feral, but unhandled and unsocialized and very bonded. We just caught the girl and she is very timid and used to him “telling” her what to do and who to trust. We are still trying to trap the boy but are wondering when we do catch him if we should go ahead and put them together or leave them apart for a while so the girl can bond with the lady who wants both of them both before bring him into the picture. Any advice with bonded semi-feral pairs would help.

    • In this case, I would keep them separate until the female bonds with her new owner. While this is happening, if you already have the male, let the lady spend some time with him too (without the female) just so he knows who she is and the transition will be easier. In fact, I would get the lady to wear a Tshirt or sweatshirt and hold the female chi and then put the shirt on his bedding so he smells their scent.

  90. I live in Maryland and I can’t find a Chihuahua anywhere can you help?

    • Sorry Theresa, I don’t know of any. I can send you the links to some of our posts that gives you some ideas for finding a chi if you want.

  91. would give anything for chihuahua I have been hunting a puppy for 2 months I lost my love bunny and I need a companion could you please help me call anytime 443-205-4924 or e-mail

    • Sorry Theresa, I don’t know of any available puppies.

  92. I just googled for info on Chihuahuas . I adopted from our SPCA an absolutely great little year and a half old Chihuahua the last of October 2021. He has done an amazing job of acclimating to my condo and from the very first time we met at the SPCA there was a bond between us. My daughter said one day that I was not the one adopting Fritz, but, rather he adopted me. I think there is a lot of truth in this. He was found as a stray and put in a shelter in the county in which he was found, transferred over to our SPCA shelter here in this county and then to foster care for 10 days before being placed for adoption. Fritz is full of life, is obedient, pee pad trained ( what a wonderful surprise!!!) and loves to play and snuggle. He’s also very smart. If he were a large dog, he would be opening doors and cabinet doors etc. He’s the best dog I could ever in this world want to replace my beloved Corgi who at the age of 16 had to be put to sleep. But, there is a very big problem that I have to get resolved and I need some positive help and need it now. Please note that I have talked with the SPCA behavior people, and have had him evaluated by a trainer with my Vet and followed all the suggestions given me.

    This is the problem: Fritz is not leash trained and when I take him out on the leash if he sees another person, another dog, an automobile going by on the street, or whatever in his sight, he goes into a mad barking rage. Its got to stop. Yesterday, he nearly caused me to have a bad fall when all the sudden when I was picking up after him he went into one of these rages. Please note that when people would have to come in I would crate him. One evening someone came in to fix a problem and brought his adult son and daughter and a friend with him and Fritz in his crate was barking like crazy. The children went into the room where he was crated, lowered their hands and let him smell them and they talked to him and the barking stopped and the tail playfully wagged. Then one day my cousin came in and at the door she lowered her hands and let Fritz smell them and he quit the awful barking and spent the rest of the time my cousin was here sitting in her lap.

    Please note: Fritz came with a note from the foster care person that he leaked uriine. He does not leak urine, but if I go off and leave him in his crate for several hours he will pee and pooh in the crate. Also, If he sees me pick up a broom or mop or he sees my swifter duster or any thing with a long handle in my hands, he will immediately run into his crate. Also, his foster care person in the notes she sent said that he tore up all his toys. Fritz has a bunch of nice toys he likes to play with and his toys have not been ripped or torn in any way, but they probably could use a toss in the washing machine.

    My thoughts are that Fritz probably has had some abuse. And, also my thoughts are that he got away from his home and got lost and in terror wandered around until he was found and picked up and put in the first shelter, then the second and then the foster care and then to me This little fellow has been through a lot and when out with him the memories are triggered. So, what suggestions do you have as to how can I help my dearly loved new live-in canine companion enjoy a walk outside in the fresh air and sunshine? I’ve thought about a sedative for Fritz, but are there negative problems with that. I so appreciate any help that you have to offer.

    • I think you are right, that he may have suffered some abuse in his past. I’m not a dog trainer so I’m somewhat limited in what to tell you but the fact that he does calm down with people once he gets to know them shows that he can be trained. Some dogs can’t.
      You can try CBD oil for dgs to help calm him down. It often helps in this situation. Also get him in a training class. He needs to get used to being around other dogs and people. You can also go to YouTube and type in how to train a reactive dog on walks in the search bar. Lots of great training videos on there.

  93. How do i post a picture of my fur babies

    • You can’t post them on here (the website) anymore.

  94. Hello,
    I have a 1.5 year old male pomchi that we adopted when he was, we think, 6 weeks old. My daughter’s family including their 5 year old lab shepard mix are moving back home. How do I get my Pomchi ready to meet their dog. I have already sent a couple of toys to my daughter for her dog. My pomchi is good with my neighbors 2 hounds. Plays well with them and I feel he is safe with them.

  95. Dear Cathy,
    I am getting a Chihuahua puppy, do you recommend any of the interactive toys, I am getting the smallest kong classic toy and I read your article about the items that I need to buy, but what I wanted to know on the interactive toys, they look so much bigger than she is and if she will know what to do with, and yes I am going to have to work with her, but I wanted to know your recommendation.

    • Hi Paul,
      My mailing list company deleted half of my subscribers so that is probably why you aren’t seeing anything from me. You can rejoin here if you want: https://ilovemychi.com/chi-club/

    • Just email me a clear photo of your dog with their name, your name and any info you’d like to share about them. Put Chi of the week in the subject line. The email is cathy@ilovemychi.com

  99. Hello,
    I have a 10 year old female Chihuahua named Pippa Maree & I’m interested in having her officially certified as an emotional support animal. I have a letter from my psychiatrist with my Chi’s name on it, stating that I suffer from Bipolar 2 as well as anxiety & need to have her with me at all times. However, I know that’s not enough to have her legitimately registered as an emotional support animal. I’ve had Pippa since she was 10 weeks old. She’s very well behaved & very calm. She’s not a barker or a nipper. She doesn’t obey basic commands such as sit, stay, or come. Is your training program something that would suit my needs & if so, what do you charge for your services. If your program isn’t what I’m looking for to achieve having her officially certified, I’d greatly appreciate some guidance in the right direction. Thank you in advance for your help.

  101. Hello, My name is Roxie and I have two adult female Chihuahua mixes. My husband and I love them more than words could say in words.
    Luna was the first dog my husband and adopted together. Prior to our relationship I had only ever had Large dogs and had to feel their loss over and over. All surviving no more then 15 yrs. Then someone at the shelter told me that small dogs live a lot longer than large dogs so I asked my husband and he said yes!!! Lets give it a go!!
    So we let Luna adopt us and make our lives complete in 2009 She was three at the time they said. Then after a few years we saw how much Luna loved being with other dogs no matter the size or sex. So we decided to get her a sister she could play with. It took us sometime to find the right sister and in the right program. We new we wanted a female Chimix and we found her also on the second chance program in 2011. Luna was from the second chance program and we knew they would hit it off. Sure enough when they met it was a sisterhood from the very start. Now Luna and her Peanut are seniors we figure now is a good time to get some sisters in the house that Luna and Peanut can teach how to grow up.
    Look forward to hearing from you

  104. Hello
    I love your photos here of the chis with bigger dog’s but I don’t see where you’ve named the breed of the bigger dog as I need to know what bigger breeds are suitable for a 3yo Chihuahua:)

    • I’m so sorry, I never thought about that. If you can tell me which page you saw the big dogs on, I’ll take a look and see if I know the breed. As a former dog groomer, I know many of the breeds but not all of them.

  105. I want to post a pic of Frankie but don’t know how

    • Where do you want to post it Donna? On Facebook? For the newsletter? The website only lets me add photos to it. If you want to put it in the newsletter or on Facebook, email it to me at cathy@ilovemychi.com

  106. Have a chihuahua that is 12 yrs. old. Have taken him to so many vets and yet the problem has never been solved. Tried strict diets, medicines etc. and nothing in fact the problem is worse.
    He has a smell problem which is really strong and he constantly tries to rub his body against surfaces to get relief I am presuming from a skin itch, his ears often twitch and he licks himself constantly. He obviously has some sort of skin problem, itch and almost like an alcoholic his pores secrete this constant smell that is unpleasant and his skin is also oily so whenever he rubs against surfaces he lives oil stains. Tried so many vets, so many diets, does anyone out there know of this problem and found a solution???

    • Have you been to a vet that specializes in allergies because it sounds like he has a major allergy? They would probably put him on an elimination diet first to see if they can figure out what the allergen is. Other possible allergens are the lawn and anything you put on it like fertilizers. Sometimes the grass itself can cause it. Or carpeting or cleaning supplies or laundry detergent.

  108. I have been a subscriber of your website for a while now & the information you post helped & learned alot. But recently my best friend, my heart, my chihuahua passed away & wanted to maybe put it on your post in the specific section, but dont know where to go. And I want to let other know what to look for if there dog showed these symptoms that my fur family had right before passing.

  109. Hi… Do you have any BLUE FEMALE LONG HAIRED CHIHUAHUAS?

    • No, I’m not a breeder. I just write about chihuahuas.

  110. I love your site, have you any experience with Chihuhua Sturvidte stones in bladder…our rescue Chihuahua mix ( mother was pure bred) is only 2 she is pad trained and has been urinating outside pads. We sadly found out she has Struvide Crystals and a bacteria infection..She is on prescription food no treats nothing no people food we are devastated.

    • No, I have never had experience with that. What is her prognosis? Is it curable?

  111. Hello
    Cathy: Thank you for helping so many and all of the good advice. I did notice you advise people to go to Puppy Spot if they are thinking of buying a puppy. Please remove that off of your site. They sell dogs bred in USDA commercial dog kennels aka what many people call puppy mills. Instead send them to the Chihuahua Club of America.
    Thank you.

    • I’m aware of the breeders on the Chihuahua Club of America. The problem is there are very few of them listed and people have to wait years for a puppy. I actually know someone who sells her puppies through Puppy Spot and her puppies don not live in a commercial kennel but are raised in her home.

  112. How can my fur baby get Chi of the day?

    • Just email me a clear photo of your dog to cathy@ilovemychi.com with their name, your name and put Chi of the day in the subject line.

    She sat by my.side and slept with me
    I live near Wilson NC and I have checked many websites to no avail
    Do you any suggestions?
    Thank you

    • Ask your vet to keep an eye out for available chis.

  116. I am going to Florida in August. I need to provide care for my dog while I’m gone. What is the best option to make sure Timmy is happy and well cared for?

    • In my opinion, a pet sitter is best as long as you can find someone trust worthy. They get to stay in their own environment and have someone there to give them one on one attention. You can look on Rover.com, ask your vet for recommendations, ask a trusted friend, family member or neighbor or go on Nextdoor.com and ask from recommendations from people who live in your area.

  117. Are there adult teacup chi’s available for adoption?

    • I don’t know of any Kathy. I just write about Chihuahuas.

  118. Cathy, my dog had a tumor on her right paw too. The medications help but I fear it will need to be removed. That will be $900. Love your newsletter. Love looking at the pics and videos. It brings me joy!

    Thank you 🤗

    • Yikes! I’m glad Lucy’s wasn’t that serious but I’m sorry you and your dog have to deal with that.

  119. I would like to add a name to the list—-ButterBean

    • That is cute. I added it to our Adorable Names post.

  120. How do you enter for Chi of the day? I have 5 that I think would be great as Chi Of the Day. I follow your page on Facebook.

    • I’m so sorry for your loss Blaine!
      I don’t know of any available chihuahuas. I do have some articles that may help you not get scammed and show you where to loo\k if you would like for me to give you the links to them.

  123. I have a chihuahua, she’s my baby!!! She is a 3 year old named Sophie, Also I love this site!! I wanted to add a photo of her but not sure how or if I can do that!!!

    • Do you mean the Facebook page? We know about that but there is nothing we can do. We have informed Facebook numerous times but they will not do anything. So we just delete the posts when we see them and ask that they be blocked but they just keep coming back.

  125. Do you have any, female deer head chihuahuas? I just lost my little girl recently.

    • Sorry, I don’t sell or breed them. I just write about them.

  126. Hello, I’m looking to potentially breed my white blue-eyed Chihuahua female. Do you have any connections to someone else who might have a white Chihuahua with blue eyes that is long-haired?

  130. Hi Cathy,
    Any advice appreciated. We have male Chi who has not been neutered yet but we plan to do this in next few years, my husband wants to wait as he thinks height put on a lot of weight. He is adorable and friendly majority of the time, and now has recall and runs off lead. Problem is he feelsnthrratened by half of the dogs he meets and snarls at them, he also try to bite and growl when I attempt to put harness on especially if in corner by the door (its generally fine to do this if i pick him up away from corner), and he has recently bitten my teenage daughter twice when resting on her bed whilst she was doing homework, once when she tried to move him and second when she went to stroke him. I am worried as we are due to go on holiday with smaller children in the family who like to stroke and make a fuss of him.

    • Yeah, I would be worried too. If he has started biting a lot lately, he will probably go after young children. As a temporary fix, you may want to try some CBD oil for pets or get a tranquilizer from your vet to use while on vacation but to change the behaviour he needs a dog behaviorist.

  131. I just wanted to say thank you for putting in such a great Article about the farmer’s dog I was thinking so much about all of it because some of the reviews people have talked about their animals being deathly sick and some other things and it made me nervous cause I just big supply of it for my 3 shizzles it made me think that Maybe it’s just his dog maybe I haven’t looked enough for the reviews cause there has to be good reviews out there not just bad or else it would Not be on the market LOL but I feel a little more confident after reading your article how are you a dogs now are they still healthy and happy and do you still recommend Farmers dog ? I know it was 2014 but I just wanted to Check-in with you

    • Yes, I still like Farmers Dog. I go through spells where I will just make my dogs food but then I get tired of it and I will get back on the subscription plan for Farmers Dog or one of the other dog food services. My dogs still do well on it.

  132. Hi Cathy. Your site opened with no issues from my AT&T server. Have a great Memorial Day and thanks for your web site.

  134. Cathy,
    I’m sorry someone told you it was your fault that Lucas became diabetic. That was a thoughtless comment, and totally untrue. I find your recipes very helpful. You are a wonderful pet owner and person.
    Thank you for all of the wonderful information you provide. I also enjoy seeing all of the adorable pictures.

  135. I lost my baby girl Sophie on labor day morning. She became part of my life 14 years ago. She brought many smile, laughs and memories,to my life. The house is very empty now even though there’s another pet. I expect to see her walk around the corner any minute. She was the light of my life. I’ve never had someone that was quite like her. Her favorite food was McDonald’s fries. I used to take her out for rides and stop at McDonald’s and she would get so excited. I’m going to get another one when the time is right, not just yet.

    • I’m so sorry Timothy. I know how hard it is to lose them when they are such a part of your life. You are smart to wait until you are ready to get another one. It can backfire if you get one too soon.

  136. I just lost my precious furbaby(deerface chihuahua)yesterday morning!Can you send me the foto I shared? He was 13 years old. I may look into fostering a rescue chihuahua. Perhaps even go to Petfinder without going to a shelter. I have been searching the chi site looking for adult or young ones looking for homes. But I would rather get a deerface short-hair female. I just lost him. So I need time to mourn my Daniel.

    • I’m so sorry you lost your fur baby! You are wise to mourn him for awhile before getting another dog.
      I no longer have your photo, so sorry I can’t email it to you.

  137. My Chi’s name is Belle I had a a couple of things I would like to know one of them is
    My chi tries to vote my family when they reach out to let her but she will accept a great from them so I just don’t understand my chi. & the other thing is she used to like my mom but she went away for awhile but now she doesn’t want nothing to do with her but she will accept good from her. But when she wants to hold her she wants out of her arms just as soon as she sees me but she used to like mom to hold her now she don’t I get that they bond very closely with just one person but she used to love mom to hold she even would lick her face. So if anyone can tell me why she does this I would very much appreciate it Thanks.

    • She probably has some trust issues with your mom since she went away. Some dogs hold a grudge.
      The thing with your family is something I heard before and seems to be more common with chihuahuas. I don’t know why they do that.

    • I’m sorry, I just write about chihuahuas. I don’t have access to any for sale or adoption.

  140. Hi, my name is Rosa I lost my white chihuahua not long ago and I really miss her companionship. I am interested in adopting a white long haired chihuahua not older than 4 yrs not more than 6 pounds since I have all kind of toys for a tiny chihuahua. we are a loving caring family with experience with small and big dogs. if you have any information that can help me please let me know my phone is 716-545-1606

  141. I am looking for a female Chihuahua puppy.
    I have 2 females one is 5 1/2 and 5 I do not breed them they have problems with there back legs !! I love them and would like to get another I am retired so I have a lot of time to spend with them.. I live in central Jersey.

  142. Pure breed Chihuahuas are non extent in our area. Do you know where I could get one for not a fortune as on SS and can not drive far. Husband has brain injury so would have to have a delivery. Really like a short haired on as I grew up with them and I really miss them. Have a holy terror now, part ThtZu/Maltese 6 years old and 9 lbs. So, an older house trained dog would be fine, but wand the apple head and pointed ears and short hair. Any ideas?

    • No sorry, I don’t. I do know of several people who told their veterinarians they were wanting to adopt a chihuahua and asked that they let them know if they came across any and they found them that way.

  143. Do you allow members to sell pups on your page?? I think it’s a scam if they use your FB page to sell pups in your dm…

    • No I do not allow it and I go in every day and block all the ones I can find. But there are always more, it never stops.

  144. Where can I find a reputable chi breeder in Florida or Alabama or Georgia! Plzzz

  145. 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? Judie judiesews@verizon.net

    • 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.

  146. Can I find out how to submit my Chi mix baby for puppies of the hour/moment? Thank you.

  149. 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.

  150. I just lost my Chi 14 years 10 months old. We miss her SOO much it hurts. In spring after snow and cold is gone I would like to get another deer headed Chi shot hair about 12 pounds. I got lucky getting my Jasmine at a no kill shelter. Would you have any suggestions as to ware I might find my new lover. I was and still am broken heated for my loss. I would be looking for a senior Chi as I am getting old too so would not be fair to get young pup. Thank you , if you can help in any way it would mean so much to me and my wife. Our hearts are broken right now. Thank you, Paul Shanahan Pelham, Nh

    • I don’t know where you are located but google your city and then Chihuahua rescue and see what comes up. If nothing shows up, try region, county or state and see if anything comes up. Also try Small dog rescue if nothing comes up for Chihuahua rescue. You can also look on Facebook. Here’s a link for the southeastern Virginia area where I’m located: https://www.facebook.com/CRTSoutheasternRegion
