Arrival Story: Our little humans love our big dogs but want a dog they can walk!
We saw that some Chihuahuas were available at a shelter about an hour away, and we soon learned the dogs had been part of a raid where 76 animals were seized. We went to visit the 8 Chi's left and Cocobear was by far the most outgoing and sweet!
Bio: Cocobear does not back down from big dogs, but he was very scared of his new huge brothers and sisters. For the first 12 hours he was here, he hid under our deck and we were very worried he may escape. Niko and Fling guarded him from any raccoons or coyotes all night, and we awoke to some angy, hungry barking early his first full day here! Coco was adopted mainly for the kids, and he knows it!
He loves all three of them- tucks them in at night and runs to wake them in the morning. He also loves to chew up any small toys they forget to clean up, but the kids are never mad at him. He is the perfect addition to our family!

Yup, that's right - a FedEx package came just for me the other day!
We were looking for some good books about little dogs, and sweet Miss Rosie and Mr. Pepe sent us a whole bunch of great books- and some yummy treats!
Mama says reading the books will help her appreciate me even more...
The note that came in the package said the treats were all for ME, but Roper took some to his training class last night. Yet another reason for me to growl and nip at him.
I'll let you know how the books are- and I'll be sure to snuggle with my mama while she reads. Thank you, Rosie and Pepe- that was super sweet of you to send me my very first mail=)
I know school is just starting for some of my pals, but for those of you with some time on your hands here are some good books to check out.
Charlotte's mama lent us both of these, and we thoroughly enjoyed both. The first is called "A Dog Year" by Jon Katz. He's written a lot of books, but this one is about his Labs and Border Collies. The other is "Amazing Gracie" by Dan Dye and Mark Beckloff- the founders of the Three Dog Bakery. It's about their blue eyed deaf Great Dane- I wonder who that reminded mama of?? If you're like my mama, this one requires a box of tissues almost the whole way through the book- for happy and sad parts!
Now she needs to find a good book about a Chi!
I've had a great summer- one full year with my furever family in July, and I couldn't be happier! My eye is doing well. I think it's going to get fixed in the winter when I get my teeth cleaned, just so there's nothing to worry about...
Hey, see that pic on my page with Levi, me and those two big, black scary looking dogs?? Well, those dogs are Charlotte and Wilbur- the ones I told you I've been going on long walks with. Don't tell Levi, but I am much faster than him!
Charlotte likes to watch and chase the tennis ball the whole time, and Wilbur likes to hang out with his mama and Fling so I get to just trot along and smell lots of stuff. Oh yeah, and Charlotte actually jumps in the water and swims to get her ball...the rest of us just stand on dry land and stare in amazement.
I've also been going to the big dog park called Bandix and on the Clear Creek trail- I love to walk and being around all the dogs and people doesn't even bother me anymore.
My eye is doing great, the weather is getting warmer...what a life!
