    15 years ago, I rescued a 2-year-old Chihuahua mix. He was a little sack of bones, with all his ribs, hip bones, shoulder blades showing. His name was Peanut. He crossed the Rainbow Bridge around Memorial Day. He was about 5 weeks shy of his 17th birthday. He was a great companion for my elderly husband until he passed in 2020. And the next 4 years, he was my buddy even though he missed his "daddy" a lot.
    If you have a chance to name a little dog Peanut, it is a great name for a special little guy.

      I don't think he's a Chihuahua, although I get why people would mistake him for one.. I have several Prague ratters & Russkiy toys (they originated in Russia as rodent hunters) & he is identical to a couple of mine, so I'd almost bet he is one of them.. (if only I could figure out how to send photos with this msg to show you..) but it'd be cool to check into it, don't you think, just to be sure what he really is for his sake?? They are some of the most awesome companion dogs ever- fiercely loyal, extremely sweet & loving.. just the best, in my opinion!! They also have these cute little quirks that are very significant to their breed (please research on them- they are so fascinating!!). Thank you..

    Where I used to live a stray Chi showed up. It took me weeks to catch it, as it was so scared. No collar, no chip, not claimed. I got her cleaned up, healthy and happy and she was adopted out and has been living a good life ever since.
    There was another little stray Chi I rescued off a busy street where he was in danger of being run over while trying to eat some food trash. He was very fearful and trying to threaten and bite me, til I had him in my car, and then he melted and just wanted to be cuddled. He also got cleaned up, fostered and adopted.

      We just rescued a 1 year old black mouth cur about 55 pounds. He was found running around my husband’s plant. He was giving us kisses from the first moment that we picked him up and he was in good condition so we figured he just escaped. We had to hold him for a day because intake was full and he managed to behave himself with our 18 yr old chihuahua mix and spicy senior cat. We brought him to the shelter because we figured he had to have a family missing him. The animal control guy was getting a tongue straight to his brain via his ear when he picked him up😂. The officer told me that it actually was really common to see super sweet and loving dogs, one, because they aren’t afraid of people but also because people can’t meet the demands of having them. That seemed so sad to me that it was the dogs who most need a loving home who wind up in the shelter.
      We waited until his hold was up and took him because we knew he already got along with our pack and because we didn’t want to leave him there. It has already paid us back with our senior dog getting a little more pep in his step.

    I'm in agreement that the foot lift is him wanting/expecting to be scooped up. What he's saying is so clear if you recognize that: "Pick me up and take me out of here!" Which is there's all that up and down. Because you're scooping him (right) but not taking him out (wrong). This perplexes him and so he goes back down, waits and tries again. He wants out of this place, and he's been trained that being scooped up = going out. Such a good smart dog!

I know how devoted they are to their people and how hard this must be on him. I want nothing more than to sweep him up and bring him into our home. He's going to make someone a sweet, loyal and devoted friend. I'm absolutely in love. And yes, if you would consider naming one of your furry kids Joey, it would mean the world to us.

    My experience with chihuahuas is that they think of themselves as a prince or princess. They’re very adamant about what they like and dislike. They love being pampered. He’s such a cutie and I’m so happy he was able to go back home with his family.
    It’s difficult not to feel bad for the little guy when he was shaking. Being in an unfamiliar place and not knowing what’s going to happen to him. He was precious. I love the name Louie. Perfect for a Prince.

      Chihuahuas just shake. It can be from cold, fear, excitement, just about anything. My son has 2 and they are constantly shaking. They do better with a sweater, or a blanket they can curl up under. Cute little stinkers, but I love the big dogs.

Our rule was do not feed Juan! If a donut was on the desk, it would disappear and one day the little thief ate my entire deli sandwich! Loved that little guy and he helped me compile training manuals daily. Just so you know, Louie was not all that hungry. VERY glad they were able to reunite him with his family as they are truly loyal.

    Seeing him reminds me of the tiny black Chihuahua I rescued from my neighbors yard after her dog attacked him. People in the neighborhood said he ran with some other dogs but no one knew who he belonged to. Local dog pound could take him but he wouldn’t get medical attention for three days. I told him I would tend to his wounds. If no one put up a sign looking for him, he would be mine. Two weeks later I had him chipped and vaccinated. He has been with us for 5 years now and I just adore him.
