Heehehe... you have an honorary basset hound!

You'll know when the right dog finds you.

Our new fur baby!

Here he is- our new baby Comet. He is 3 and just the sweetest thing ever!

Beware!! Home guarded by a ferocious chihuahua!

He likes the cats- more scared of them than they are of him but he is curious about them. One of them has come face to face with him many times and there has been no meowing, no hissing no barking- good kitties and good doggie.

Yay! You'll be very happy, rats make for wonderful pets.

Nephythys · 01-17-2007, 08:17 PM

bwa ha ha! Yeah- my rodent doggy.

I used to really dislike Chihuahuas until my friend got one- now I think they're pretty cute. Her dog likes to play with my big ol' Mellie dog, which is hilarious to watch. Mellie is really careful with the little one.

Congrats on the new baby!

CONGRATULATIONS!

Don't listen to the naysayers (as if you need advice from me) - chihuahuas are the best!

Cute boy!!! I could hear Jesse and H oohing and Ahing all the way in Long Beach!

He's taken to me- follows me around and had to sleep glued to me. He does like everyone else though too- which is important.

Dog thinks he's a little person- he slept on his back with his head on my pillow!

We had one accident-he was looking like it was potty time and he smelled an area our cats have decided to use when they are protesting the cat box- and before we could catch him he piddled. We put him outside and he did his business- came in and got huge praise. I'm sure that will take time-

He's a great little dog- very loving. Thanks again for all the help!

NA was right. H & I oohed and aahed.

As far as the peeing on the cat odor is concerned, we recommend Anti-Icky Poo. It gets rid of pet urine odor - so Comet will be less concerned about territorial peeing.

Vinegar does wonders as well.
