Nicknames:
Chico, Chico Rio, Piglet
How I Arrived To My Family:
After wanting a Chihuahua for a long time, Mom spotted a certain little white Chihuahua who was called "Chicaca" at that time. She was attached and the rest is history!
My Personality:
I can be a bit shy around some people, but once I get to know you, I'm one of the friendliest guys you'll ever meet! I'm very happy all the time, unless I see Simba, one of my kitty (well, he believes himself to be a person in a cat suit...pfft!). I know that Simba bullies Daisy, so I always stand up for her and growl at him.
My Tricks:
I like to get on my tummy and crawl around on the floor. I know I'll get a lot of "awwws" from it. :D
Favorite Food:
I like cheese. Right now, Mom has me a on a rotational diet of EVO Red Meat, Innova, and Solid Gold Barking at the Moon. She just ordered some Nature's Variety Instinct, which will be added to my rotation.
Favorite Treats:
I loove turkey bacon!
Favorite Walk:
I like to walk at Riverside Park and at the creek near our house.
Favorite Toys:
I like my duck toys and I occasional grab Chii's pink Barbie purse. Hehe...
A Typical Day:
I'm always awoken by Chii and Daisy as soon as the sun comes up. As soon as I'm fed, I then make sure to wake up all the kitties. When Mom isn't home, I tend to hang around with Chii. Later in the day, I'll pester Chii during her grooming sessions with Mom. When it's all over with, I like to sleep in my crate or with Chii in hers. I especially like to sleep in the crate with Chii in the winter 'cause she's warm!
Favorite House Spot:
I love to hog the couch.
Places I Have Visited:
I've been to Fort Scott, Kansas, Kansas City, Missouri, St. Louis, Missouri, Effingham, Illinois, Indianapolis, Indiana, Columbus, Ohio, northern Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Newark, New Jersey, New York City, New York, and to Murphy's home town.
Things I Own:
Every human I meet. :D
My Little Mischiefs:
I like to assist Daisy in trying to pull Chii's hair out of it's topknot.
My Health:
I'm a healthy boy. I did have to have a surgery done on my back left leg in May 2005. I had a condition where my femur bone was pushing against my hip really hard and it hurt a lot. I had to have part of the top of my femur taken off, so my back left leg is about a fraction of a centimeter shorter than my right.
