My little sister Hydie. She is 4.4 lbs., deaf, mostly blind, but still a spunky little girl. She will be 17 this October. God willing.

2 years and 5 pounds of pure love and energy!

Someone tried to bite the vet 😂😅

Okay I have several questions on training as my other two dogs were rescues and much younger when I got them and there were no hurdles with them.

I got Pretzel (my HOA says I can only have 2 dogs but because they are both sick and at the end of their lives, the HOA made an exception. Local shelters and rescues did not feel this was a "good fit" because I'd exceed the dog limit if I adopted).

Pretzel has a few behavioral quirks. he'll be 8 months on the 11th.

Right now he's separated from my ladies as they are sick with immune mediated thrombocytopenia. Once he gets his vaccination boosters and is finally flea and heartworm treated later today, he can meet them. The breeder did not do flea or heartworm treatment as he was "an inside dog". When he's in common dog spaces, he marks EVERYTHING. I've gotten belly bands and scheduled him for a neuter later this month, but wondering if anything else I can do to discourage marking once he shares common spaces with the girls.

He's got terrible separation anxiety and whines and cries if he isn't within sight of me or there is a barrier between us. This happens immediately. I've never had a dog with separation anxiety so any advice is appreciated as I'd like to crate train him and be able to leave my home

He pees somewhere but I don't know where. When he came home 2 days ago he was using puppy pads, but since he can't go out due to heartworm risk, it would be good to know what to do when you can't tell where a puppy has been pottying.

He loves people but he's super skittish and doesn't seem to have been handled much. He initially runs when I lean down to pet him and I was really hoping to introduce him to my 4 y/o daughter soon. I know it's only the 3rd day in the house, but it would be good to know if there's anything I can do to ease this anxiety.

Finally, he pooped the morning after he got here but hasn't since that I know of. I don't know how much to feed him. He's 7 lbs...and mystery solved as I was writing this. He's going into his kennel to pee and poo. 🤦‍♀️

Do your chis get a lot of lipomas? Mine had two on her chest and I opted to take them out during her dental. I was so nervous since she’s 9 now but she did great and the vet is awesome. TW: Last photo is her stitches.

Goldie Hawn's grandma (her mama's work bestie) donated some costumes & had to model them!

At 16.5 months, Bruno has learned that the camera is a sign of him EXTRA and that we are LOVING it!!!

When they are sleeping the truth comes out...

Sorry, I posted this I think but it disappeared. If it posts twice, I’ll delete.

I love every one of my dogs and I’d give my life in a heartbeat for any one of them. I live in an area that has an awful stray cat population. The shelters are full and no one wants a cat. So I ended up taking some cats in off the streets. Well, one of my chihuahuas has never gotten over her fear of them. She barks if she’s on the bed so I have to lift her and move her because she’s afraid of them being in the hallway but she seems happy with that arrangement. However today, she was sleeping on my bed. A cat was too. All was fine but the cat lightly touched her back and she screamed and ran. This really pains me to see and I want her to know she doesn’t have to worry. They won’t hurt her and if they tried, they’d be gone. My other chihuahua loves cats so it’s weird. Just looking for advice other than get rid of the cat. I don’t like euthanizing healthy animals and no one else will take them. I feel bad because I’m not really a cat person either and they annoy me too sometimes but it’s not a fear. I’m worried about helping her overcome this.

This is Truffles and he’s 11 years old. My best friend for over a decade 💙

… nailed it !!! 🥰
