I take her for walks , she sleeps in a crate, she knows what "no" , "leave it" and "come" mean. Being so small I do have to take some precautions. It is pretty cold here in winter, so she is litter trained. If I have to take her out in the cold I put a coat or wrap a blanket around her. I also check before I sit down to make sure she isn't there. I had a scare one day when we had visitors. The lady went to sit down and I screamed "Princesse!" She was right under the woman When I screamed , Princesse moved and the woman stopped sitting. What a close call! As long as your friend socializes, trains the Chi and remembers the dangers to small dogs, she should do fine |  |  | |  |
