Whatever arguments prevail about which is the better small dog to be the human companion of, Chihuahua or Chiweenie, one thing is certain:
BOTH HAVE THE BIGGEST HEARTS YOU COULD EVER HOPE TO FIND.
And what is Christmas, if not a time for heartfelt love? My two little ones, Chihuahua and Chiweenie alike, offer their love no-holds-barred — to me, to the big dogs in their life, and . . . to our one and only resident feline, Lily. Now THIS is what I call the true spirit of Christmas!
None of my other animal companions interact with Lily like the Chiwees do (“Chiwees” is my nickname for Chihuahuas and Chiweenies in the same household). My three big dogs do not fawn over Lily. They do not cuddle up to her in bed — whether it be my bed or theirs. They do not welcome her into their food bowls.
But Tucker and Frida, my Chiweenie and Chihuahua, respectively, do. All of the above. They lick Lily and cuddle with her and share food with her. And — can you blame her? — Lily has come to prefer their company at bedtime to mine. Not that we aren’t all piled up in my bed together, we are. But the exact spot Lily wants to cuddle down in is somewhere in between the two Chiwees, not necessarily next to me.
Who says animals don’t have emotions like we do?
I don’t know who that is, but one thing I DO know is that they’ve never had a Chihuahua or a Chiweenie. If you want to experience true “heart” in a small package, then these dogs are the way to go. Become their companion and you will never lack for attention, love, and pure-dee devotion — to the point of worship. And that goes for not only you, but for any member of your family, be he or she of the humanoid, canine, or feline variety.
God bless the Chiwees! And Merry Christmas to all!
