    I'm so glad I don't have an actual chihuahua!

    I have gotten that a few times from people that are familiar with Paps. Max is small for the breed. He might weight 7 pounds-maybe. And to comment on another of your posts- I don't think Max is ever going to have a true Pap coat either. I call him my little hairless Pap. The only place he...

    I'm so glad I don't have an actual chihuahua!

    I got that with Max all the time too. It drives me crazy. Not that I have anything against Chi's, but a Papillion really doens't look anything like a LH Chi. I keep saying that I am putting a tshirt on Max that says " I am NOT a long haired chiuahua!". My hubby thinks it is hilarious!

    This is awesome!

    35. Papillion – Papillion owners are meticulous and precise. They can be opinionated and know what they want and what they like. They are talkative and don't like long silences. They strive to look good and spend lots of time getting ready to go out. They can be happy at a fancy restaurant or...

    Max ate mouse poison!!!

    Just wanted to update everyone on Max. He seems to be just fine and is back to his old ornery self. I kept checking his belly and gums for signs of bleeding, but he never got sick. Thanks goodness! He still gets his Vitamin K until it runs out. Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes...

    Max ate mouse poison!!!

    :yikes: Please say a prayer for my little guy today. At approximately 6:30 am this morning, Max ingested about a palm size amount of mouse poisoning that was left behind the couch. I was making breakfast and he snuck behind there. When I noticed he had disappeared I called him and I could...

    Today's the Day!

    Max is not longer has his berries! I took him in this morning. They called me an hour or so later to tell me that 4 of his baby teeth haven't come in so they needed to be pulled. There's another $40 :( I am scared to see the bill but I know that it had to be done. Poor baby is going to...

    Greyhounds, AKC vs. NGA

    Doesn't that stink about the rescues? We have gotten that response as well. While I understand their point, in most cases I think that it is totally absurd. As a parent of two small children I take the responsibility to raise the puppy and the children together and supervise them appropriately...

    Mother Guilt

    Nikki~ you are absolutely right in that it is utimately my responsibility to teach them. DH and I try to teach them as much as possible. Both love to read and color/draw and we label everything we see when in the car, camping, etc. I just feel like someone that is trained can provide a better...

    Mother Guilt

    Thank you for all the advice and kind words. It is nice to get different perspectives. DH and I visited the center yesterday and made a decision to move them. IThey both start February 11th and in the long run I think it will be the best for everyone. They are going to start seriously working on...

    Mother Guilt

    I have a situation that I am not sure what to do about. My children have been at a home daycare since they were newborns. They love Ms. T and she seems to genuinely care for my kids as well. However, we fall victim to the usual home day care dilemma...She is closed on ALL holidays plus a few...

    UUUGHHHHH stomach flu....

    I hope you feel better soon. My son has the exact same thing right now. Two days ago he was having accidents every 15 minutes all day long (he is ) but he is every day getting better. Hang in there and get plenty of rest and fluid.

    Question - fat people

    The surgeon that performed my surgery told me during the initial interview that only approximately 3% of the morbidly obese are able to loose the weight on their own. It may have been his way to get me to have the surgery, but if you look at the number or morbidly obese people in the US alone it...

    Question - fat people

    Ghrelin does have a lot to do with it. After my Gastric Bypass I was NEVER hungry. I literally could go all day and the only reason I would remember to eat was that my blood sugar got low. When I got pregnant (twice)the amount of ghrelin increased (obviously) and I think I stretched my stomach...
