"A PUPPY'S LOVE IS UNCONDITIONAL "

MiniMe
games on!

Hi,   I took several pictures of MiniMe on his 1st birthday <above> and have attached a selection of them to this email.I consider MiniMe to be an ambassador for the chihuahua breed. He is incredibly social and charming. He has shifted the perception and won over countless people who have thought of chihuahuas as yappy annoying dogs. When people (including skeptics) meet him they fall in love. MiniMe loves going to the dog park and playing with big and small dogs. He is not aggressive and not afraid when interacting with other dogs of a variety of temperaments. MiniMe is intelligent and well trained. He is well versed in the commands sit, lay down, stay, come, dance, freeze, outside, inside, go potty, upstairs, downstairs, shake(hands), kill (for toys, he shakes them on command), off, enough, leave it, get your ball and kennel. An impressive repertoire.  He walks well on a leash too. I have brought MiniMe to work a number of times. He is very excited when I bring him to work as he has made so many friends there. He is considered to be the unofficial mascot for our large team.MiniMe defines cute. He could give lessons on being cute. In a way he has to our other dog Peeka (not a chihuahua), who we got later in life (not as a puppy) and was not well socialized. MiniMe has helped teach Peeka how to act around the house and out in public. I hope you and your dogs are doing well
Take care,Tony

SPIKE
"coming home!"
AND MEETING YODA

12-21,08 Spike has arrived to his new home, and Yoda seems very content to have the little guy around.Yoda had to get the sniffing done and out of the way as soon as Spike went down on the floor.  So far he has met my father in law who fell in love with him, and right now all he wanted was some water.  I am thrilled with him, and so happy that Yoda is very content with him.
It was a nice surprise To meet you today, and quite a jolt to me to see that I really was ready for another puppy in the house. I love him and I have a great sense that he is going to fit into this family just fine. Thank you for your kindness, and you will hear from me when I have questions, and will keep you updated with pictures and adventures.
Thank you so much again,
Richard & Nancy
Yoda and Spike also

UPDATE! ON THE STORY OF SPIKE AND YODA

"He is a wonderful little fella in case you guys didn’t know already.
He was allowed to ride to work with me yesterday and stayed in the
Office from 6 am until 9:30 am then my father in law took him home.
He has truly been a blessing for Yoda, our other one, sure he gets a
Little out of sorts, but he is busier and healthier acting and starting
To big brother Spike. Thank you so much for allowing me such a
Small pleasure and so much love into my life.
I hope you enjoyed the pictures.
Thank you so much."

PRECIOUS AND HER BABY ROMEO
"the picture say's it all"

"We first met over a year ago, when my husband and I came along with our son to get his beautiful new Chihuahua puppy. It was really nice getting to know Michelle and bond with the puppy. She was very warm and she made us feel very welcome.  It was a good feeling to know that the puppies were in such a clean and loving environment, and the puppies were very happy and healthy as a result. Recently my daughter moved back home with her pregnant Chihuahua, Precious. I had never experienced whelping of any breed before, and as the time grew closer, I was getting very nervous about it. Although we had taken Precious to the veterinarian and had gotten some helpful information from him, I was still very concerned because as it turned out, she only had one puppy inside her, which can be a dangerous situation and the larger size of a single puppy can some times be to large for the mother. I contacted Michelle by e-mail and told her about our situation, our concerns of a difficult birth and our lack of experience. How thankful we were when she immediately jumped in to help!  We live in Washington state, and Michelle lives in Oregon, so from that point on, until the puppy was born, we communicated by e-mails and phone calls. She comforted our fears with her knowledge and guidance and talked us through the whelping process, even as it was happening. We are happy to say, the single puppy was born healthy and is growing so fast!  We will always be  so grateful to Michelle and her caring, loving support!"  - Julie

KOLE
"on the green"

Things are amazing with Kole. We love him so much and are so thankful that we found you and him. He has brought so much laughter and joy to our lives.His personality comes out more and more everyday since we got him back in April. He is even learning a few tricks...I think he might be the smartest Chihuahua I have ever seen. He sits and speaks and is almost 100% potty trained...he's the best. Thank you for taking the time to meet with us before we came to pick him up and many thanks for taking time to potty train him before we adopted him. We will know where to come next time we are looking for a puppy. Kole has been asking for a sister. We will be in touch and continue to send pictures of our little man. Thanks again for everything. Julie & Chad
