My First Real Injury
It has been some time since I have been here to visit you all. I have had a very interesting journey the past while. I even met a couple of girl chihuahuas which I will tell you more about at a different time.ruf!ruf!
Well the most resent events in my life had me going to a friends house who used here grooming table to hold me up while she bandadged my poor bleeding paw.wow did that ever hurt. A friend was over and stepped on my foot and broke my nail so I was really bleeding. It was a good thing that she was able to help me out that night or I would have lost too much blood. The next morning we went to the vet and I was told to get comfortable I would be there for awhile,of course I did not want to stay,but I did. The doctor took ex-rays of my paw and after about an hour was relieved to see it was not broken. I did however have to have my nail removed and that was extremely painful. Well here we are now only about a week later and I do feel much better,I am still trying to get use to the missing nail and constantly lick that area,but hey after all life is good so I can not complain.

More Chi Information
Many of us see the Chihuahua as a small and cute dog. But there's actually more to it than its tiny size. The Chihuahua may be a petite dog but it has a big character that complements its big eyes and big ears. It is a fearless animal that can be a great pet depending on how the owner handles it.
This breed of dog has been found to be a popular pet of choice by elderly people and apartment residents. It is now considered the 12th most popular dog breed in the U.S.
ather than being bred down from a larger breed, the Chihuahua is the only toy breed that is naturally small.
The Chihuahua has a well rounded, apple shaped head. The muzzle is tiny in contrast to the head, will be slightly pointed, and either have a level or scissors bite. Ears are large and erect, spaced far apart and will flair to the sides when relaxed. Their eyes are round and large (but not protruding), very expressive, and should either be dark or ruby colored .The nose is short, pointed, and black. Light-colored eyes, and pink noses are allowed in blonde-colored dogs.
The body is robust and compact, with well sprung ribs. Measurements from wither to tail should be longer than from withers to ground. Shorter bodies are preferred in males. The neck is slightly arched, sloping into lean shoulders, and continuing down into a level topline. Their front legs should be straight, short, and square-shaped, with the back legs being well-muscled and thin. The feet are small and dainty with well split toes. And finally, the long sickle-shaped tail should curl, looping over the back with the tip just barely touching the back.
