The Sweet Life Of Chi Chi

I know, I know...is that her real name? People ask us that all the time and the answer is YES. She was given to us by a breeder friend when she was only six months old with a shiny pink dog tag that read - CHI CHI - so, the name stuck and we kept it. Maybe it even had something to do with the fact that she IS a Chihuahua, hmm?

Now, 8 years later, we call her all sorts of nicknames, Chi Chi dog, Cheechers, Cheech, Chaycher La Waycher...you name it and we have probably said it. Robert will often say she has the brain of a tiny bird and therefore claims she doesn't know much. But I say Chi Chi KNOWS alright, knows all about relaxing...like napping, laying in the sun, and snuggling into a blanket with the kids, now that is the sweet life!
