SF Bay Area Chihuahua over breeding

Off Topic
  • The Chihuahua has been way over bred here to meet people demands and now they don't want them finding out they're a real dog that's alive. We see this story on the news many times here. Now we have to send them out to you folks on the east coast.

  • Very sad… Hollywood has a lot to answer for :mad:.

    Funny story here though... Our Australian early morning breakfast show was doing a story on the Chihuahua, (I cant remember what it was about...), and the female anouncer called them Chee hoo-a hoo-a :eek::eek::o:o... Nothing was said, till after the next commercial break when the male presenter, (who looked like he knew she had really fluffed the pronounciation :D), came back on and apologised about the pronounciation of the breed, and it was called, Chihuahua... The naughty cameraman pans across to the female presenter, who was laughing so much, she had tears rolling down her face, and couldnt speak for about 10 minutes :D. I would love to have been in the studio when it had errupted into laughter about the way she had pronounced it :).

    Here in the states there are disclaimers on everything… I once saw a disclaimer on a ladder..."not to place it in dogpoop before stepping on it"..I mean come on..is that really needed? But I guess it is..

    I think the retriever mix would make an excellent therapy dog. She seems like she has a beautiful temperament. And the baby chi has a future. Thanks for sharing these, guys.

    LOL, I know this conversation is pretty much over but I had to jump in anyway. I too, think the new "designer breeds" are silly. They make cute mutts sometimes, like my precious "Chiweenie". I never knew there was a name for a Chihuahua/Dacshund mix/mutt until we got him from a ….. !surprise! shelter. :p
