I've been falling upon posts from this forum every time I google something about chihuahuas, so I decided I should probably just join instead of lurking.
After many, many, MANY years of wanting a chihuahua, I finally got one to add to my little family (which consists of 5 ferrets) a few days before Christmas. Her name is Lacey, and she is a 3.1 lb black and white long haired chi with a patch over one eye. She's an absolute angel. My human family members all refuse to acknowledge that she is a dog because she acts so much like a cross between a cat and a rabbit. She never barks, and only growls when she sees a cat. She's so quiet, I can't believe she is real. My mum calls her my "animated stuffed animal" LOL
I'll be sure to post pictures of her soon!
