I really think the “ c” on her head says it all !!

We got our little girl last weekend and we noticed something very special the first day she was here .
My name begins with a c and this little angel has my initial on her head. I kiss it and tell her she’s my angel 😇❤️

Full chi?

My new puppy — he is so sweet. Everyone keeps telling me he doesn’t look like a chihuahua. He is supposed to be a long hair deerhead. What do you think? Currently about 4lb and 4 months

Chronic ear infection/allergies

Hey everyone.

I have two senior chihuahuas. One has the following issues:
-masses:had 2 surgeries removing 8-10 masses, 2 of which were ulcerated
-chronic ear infections, as soon as it’s treated it reappears
-unknown allergies: she’s had 4-5 times in the past couple years where she has been brought to the emergency vet for facial swelling
-she licks her paws sometimes in the spring

Obviously she has allergies but the two vets I have brought her to don’t seem to think there is some kind of good long term solution or have offered an allergy panel. I’ve already tried eliminating chicken and such..I also travel a lot for work and it’s hard to find care for her especially when I just feel like I’m waiting around for something to happen.

Does anyone have experience getting an allergy test and what long term meds may help?

Tiny silver Chihuahua with maximum side-eye energy

This tiny silver Chihuahua charm was made for a mother’s daughter who has autism.
She hoped this little companion could stay close to her daughter every day and bring her comfort and emotional support.

The piece was first sculpted in 3D, then cast in solid 999 silver and finished with hand-painted enamel details to capture the Chihuahua’s sweet expression.

He’s still the same playful dog , drinks and wants to eat , no diarrhea or weird colors in his throw up , just his food and clear yellowish liquid , we have an appointment for Friday with a new vet

My sweet Penny moved on from this existence yesterday. She was 17 and the best dog I’ve ever had. The sweetest anything I’ve ever known. My life and my soul now have a gaping hole where she used to be.
