I never liked a chihuahua. Little nervous yappers. Not saying I'd
shoot it, but that would be more humane than slamming it against a
tree or a sidewalk.

-----------------------------------------------

I never really liked them either. Ankle biters. But when Mrs.E's
"Westie" died, she decided to get a toy Chihuahua. I begged her not
to because we already have Sam Adams (the black lab) and "Fudge",
whatever he is. I think he's part wolf. Mrs. E. rescued him from an
abusive owner as a puppy and now full grown, he only likes my wife and
me. Anyone else risks losing an arm or leg if you go near him
without us reassuring him it's ok.

But, she wanted a small, personal pet to go along with them and her
two 1,000 lb hay burners out in the barn. So, next thing I know
"Rosie the Chihuahua" arrived. Ugliest dog I've ever seen but I have
to admit, she's a fun little dog. Nervous around people she doesn't
know but has quite the personality.

I'll never get out of here. Dogs, horses, grandkids, ..... whew!
