I just got myself a sweet little girl chihuahua puppy 2 weeks ago! We named her Tika and she is such a sugar plum! She is a black and tan (still trying to figure out how to upload pictures)... she's six months old and 4 pounds (a bit overweight but we are working on it).
I have found on other dog lovers forums that a lot of people dont view chihuahuas as dogs. If you don't have a German shepherd or lab retriever then you don't have a dog!? I was hoping that these forums will be a bit more welcoming!!
looking forward to talking to all of you!
Welcome!
cannot wait to see pics of your new little one!
We have wee Chis, average sized Chis and healthy but "big-boned" Chis (haha!) here so in any case you, and she will fit right in!
Welcome, I am new too with my lil chi boy I got from my hubby for Christmas. I know some people don't consider chihauhuas reg dogs, in fact my sister doesn't...lol but I don't care, my lil chi is as smart as any lab out there and he is more lovable as well.

I get the same attitude from my brother and sister-in-law. Personally I just consider the source and that the only exposure they have had to chis is from my brief visits to my mom's house.
And welcome. I have gotten a lot of information here.
Thank you all for the greeting *first time that's actually happened*!!
Yes my mom and two sisters both view her as a "rat" and favor my boxer mix Ruby...
Whatever.... I think they feel this way because my chi will only come to me and my husband when we call her and will only cuddle us lol!
Chihuahuas are lovers (with their family)... they flatten those little satellite ears and stick their cold little noses in your face and lick you with quick little hummingbird tongue! Sooo adorable.
Chihuahua Newbie!!
