Chi-Chi is an extremely sweet, sweet dog! She is very
loving and craves attention by another dog or human. She is already
housebroken, knows a few commands and is leash trained. She also doesn't
mind the crate either. So how could someone leave this loveable dog behind?
Chi-Chi listens to you for guidance; if she is unsure of going somewhere she
will stay put until you say "it's ok". She seems to enjoy chewing on bones
and gets along with our Junior just fine - their game is chasing each other
around the house in circles! Chi-Chi is also definitely a HUGE snuggler and
has been curling up in a little ball right next to either myself, my husband
or Junior. I think she is just happy to be somewhere warm and in a loving
home where she will be taken care of. And in return, to show you how
thankful she is - she does the boxer wiggle where she actually bumps into
things - its so cute! There is no doubt in my mind that she will go
quickly!!!!
We are feeding her smaller meals but 3 times a day and she appears to enjoy
a little people food mixed in with it. We need to put some meet on those
bones. She really is the sweetest dog!

- Chi Chi
When I picked up Chi Chi the people
there said that she was a very sweet dog. Junior ( the foster home’s dog)
was just so affectionate and just wanted nothing but to give Chi Chi kisses.
The introduction went very well, Junior again just went in for the kisses
and Chi Chi seemed to like him wiggling and wagging her short tail. Inside
the house was the same, Chi Chi just seemed to have a bit of a nervous bark
when Junior would put his paw on her (He's a big boy and she needs to gain a
lot of weight) but nothing serious at all. Shana (foster mom) had a pretty
new pink collar for her and a crate.
What I've learned about Chi Chi is she was found as a stray in Brooklyn, she
has been in the NYC animal hospital for the required 2 week hold waiting for
someone to claim her. She has a micro chip that was never registered, but
because of the chip she had to be held for 2 weeks. She is up to date on
all of her shots and has been spayed. She is approx 4 years old, they say
52 lbs, but she needs to put on a good amount of weight. She is fawn with
cropped ears and a docked tail. She is sweet, was happy to go for the car
ride, sat next to me up front, napped most of the way, when we were getting
off the exit, she popped up and was checking out something new....the
suburbs, she seemed like she new she was going to a much better place that
she had never experienced before....lots of grass and trees!
We will update when we get to know her better.
