Okay so chihuahuas shouldn’t be be kept as fashionable purse dogs, but then what type of person should have them?

Dogs of course have different personalities and I know a lot of people with disabilities consider them perfect because they like to cuddle and are unlikely to suffocate or knock people over, but in my experience they’re also perfect for people who like to explore both nature and urban environments. And even though they shouldn’t be purse dogs, pet backpacks with plenty of airflow that also conceal the pet a bit are a must, like these.

Once the dogs realize the backpack means adventure they’ll throw themselves into it as soon as it’s place in front of them and off you go. That’s one of the reasons why chihuahuas are perfect for all sorts of exploring. They’re easy to transport to any destination on any kind of transportation. I ride my bike everywhere and my chihuahua loves all the smells zooming by, exactly like a dog sticking its head out a car window.

We bike to forests, towns and the seaside, she’s let out and can explore either on or off her leash depending on the area, and in my experience most shop owners are cool with you bringing your dog into the shop as long as they’re well behaved and in a backpack like the ones I showed because that way they can’t touch anything, their fur wont get everywhere and if they aren’t super obvious they won’t bother other people. That’s why seeing eye dogs are allowed. They’re so well trained they won’t cause trouble. And if they won’t let you in there’s no reason to make a fuzz, you just find another shop.

The backpack also makes it easy to switch transportation. I’ll get off my bike, jump on a train, let my chihuahua stretch her legs until the ferry arrives and soon we’re on a small island.

And just like people are more okay with a feral house cat that sometimes attacks people than they would be if a cougar wandered into town, people are generally more understanding if you accidentally break a rule you weren’t aware of with a small dog. I’ve let my dog off her leash in an area for months because I thought it was allowed and luckily I didn’t get in trouble because she is small and well trained so people weren’t bothered by her and when someone finally told me they were super nice and calm about it.

I am of course living in Denmark and my chihuahua is a reasonable size which means the only predator that could possibly be a danger to her is a fox which is why I’m comfortable letting her off her leash in nature areas. Other countries would probably be less safe for her.

But overall, can highly recommend a chihuahua if you have a relatively active lifestyle and likes going on short adventures 👍

Things I've said to my pets recently

Why are there five tennis balls in the yard?

I have asked you nicely not to bark. You leave me no choice but to ask you nicely again.

What can you learn about your brother by sniffing his butt that you don't already know after spending the whole day with him?

Second time this week that I’m sitting in the emergency vet. My tan dog (Wanda) caught kennel cough, which we are treating her for. Now my chocolate lab (Ruth) is sick with it to the point that within 12 hours of symptoms presenting, she is unable to hold down water. We have been through triage, and now the long wait for the vet to come in to confirm suspicions and go over treatment options.

Let The Day Begin

Beside me is my sleeping cat statue purring away. Bean is sitting tall but sleeping. No wonder really, he just had the zoomies up and down the hall. I would like to film it but there’s not enough light. Now he’s trying to lay down across the keyboard and since there’s really nothing for me to say I’ll just leave you to get back to your super groovy life. Now the dogs are joining us! Oh my. Let…

jurassic park has a good philosophical message but unfortunately the only thing i ever take away from watching jurassic park is "god i wish i could go to jurassic park." like yeah it's a blatantly obvious don't create the torment nexus scenario, but this torment nexus has DINOSAURS.

#bee posts nonsense #the scene from jurassic world with the baby dinosaur petting zoo.... life could be a dream.. #jurassic park #don't create the torment nexus

The oven is finally preheated, just in time for my kitten to decide she wants cuddles.

How do they always know??

Kittens and Puppies

Kittens and puppies fool us. I have formed the opinion that they have to be cute and cuddly because they get into so much trouble when young. Their cuteness is what saves them. Kittens climb, jump and chew on everything. Is there someplace you don’t want them to go, oh they will go there and take great pleasure into knocking everything over. Puppies on the other hand chew on everything,…

Day 74, Cats And Ice Cream

True story, when Wayne has ice cream my cat, my little Moon girl, always jumps up on his chair. I have seen him take some of the ice cream from his bowl on his finger to give her a taste but she rarely eats it. Why does this happen? But I thought it was cute that he did that for her. Last summer she dipped her paw in my bowl of ice cream and seemed to enjoy it! I had to eat around that spot lol.…

Why my cat is mad at me this morning:

Because I won't let her eat her own vomit off the boot tray I use to catch the debris from their cat box Why I'm annoyed at my cat:

Someone vomited in my bed yesterday on the underside of my nice sheets and cleaned it up. So I didn't notice it until this morning....after I slept in my bed. I required a full scouring this morning.
