Hi
I just posted, but don't know where it disappeared to! Oh well... I am getting an 8 week old chi in about 3 weeks. I already have a dog (she's a cocker spaniel, basset hound, chihuahua mix). I was on another web site, and a woman who responded to my post tried to discourage me from getting a chihuahua. She said they don't get along with other breeds of dogs, and don't like kids. The woman I'm getting him from said she has 2 chis and a german shepard, and they get along well. She also has 5 kids, and the dogs love them. I'm somewhat confused right now, as I don't want to bring a dog home, only to have things not work out. I realize what a new puppy entails, and realize it could very well be a while before the new pup is housebroken. Any info, advice, experiences anyone wants to share will be appreciated. thanks so much!
