New to our family on May 9th, I REALLY appreciate now having this delightful puppy.
Beyond the new puppy, I also appreciate all the special things that our older, homebred Chihuahuas (Chipper, Dana, Puffkin, Sari, Lucy, Furby, and Sparki) have brought and continue to bring to our lives each and every day. Chihuahuas are IMO perfect dogs and family members. I can't image being without one...or more.

Because she sticks to me like glue, our new girl Bailey definitely is already "my" girl. Once a Chihuahua bonds like she has, it is bonded for life. Tiny Bailey is a true treasure. I look forward to many adventures and a happy future with her. All of our older (now senior citizens) Chihuahuas also love her. We haven't had a puppy in the house since Sari and Sparki were babies. This is an exciting time for us all.

More about International Chihuahua Appreciation Day.

Thanks to former Miss British Columbia, Nadia Alterio, Chihuahuas have been celebrated every year on May 14th since 2010. Ms Alterio also keeps an interesting (to Chihuahua lovers anyhow) blog https://www.famouschihuahua.com/about-famous-chihuahua/
