Do I look pregnant NOW????

This is Snickie with  3 weeks to go.  I think she is starting to show.  Finally.  For a long time she was looking very slim.

She is eating all the time.  I just went to petsmart to buy some special organic sausage for her.  They love it.  And anything to help her get all those vitamins and extra calories she needs.

She is also getting raw chicken necks to supplement her diet.  I am hoping that she will have enough calories, vitamins etc to keep her and her pups healthy.

Update on the lovebirds...

The lovebirds have gone to Jessie's house for the weekend.  We figure a change in scenery may help them.  Nacho will be in his element in his own home. 

I am happy not having to wipe up after him... he likes to mark everything.  So I get a break for a couple of days.  This also means Pepsi is home again.  And we knew it at 6.30am when he started howling for me.....

It is STILL cold out there.

Ok, it is seriously cold out there and the chis are very upset.  Chica and Snickie have taken to burrowing in one of the crates under the covers.  They stay there most of the day.

Last night as I was laying on the sofa watching the tely Chica took her burrowing to all new levels.  She crawled up my shirt!!!!!!  You can see her head poking out of the top. 

And Chica is wearing a sweater 24-7 ta boot.  I thought that would help her stay warm but obviously it is not enough.


Snickie tried to go potty in the house this morning but I caught her and put her out.  The only one sort of ok with all this cold weather is Pepsi.  He seems to be ok with that very thick coat of his.

He just wants to be on my lap.

Pepsi went to visit Jessie for a few days, Nacho and Daisy came to see us.  Why you may ask??  Well, Daisy is in heat and is going to mate with Nacho if all goes well.

Nothing yet, but they are dancing and playing around.  Nacho follows Daisy around and has tried several times.  Daisy gets a little scared.  But all will work itself out and before you know it Daisy will be pregnant.

It is cold out there.

It is cold out there so the doggies are on strike.  There is no need to go potty outside in the cold when there is plenty of lovely carpet to go on inside.

So they are sneaking around inside trying to find a nice spot and i'm trying to catch them in the act and send them outside.

They are all curling inside one crate to keep warm.  Chica is the short hair and is accepting a sweater to help her keep warm.  The other two have longer hair.

When outside the one side of the house has a nice sunny spot sheltered from the wind.  That is where you will find them huddled.  And that is only when forced outside against there will.

Chihuahuas and raw meat.

So I went with Ana to the meat market and it is true!!!!!  lol.  You can really get lots of meat cheap.  So I gave in and got some.  I figure it won't hurt to supplement their diet with some raw meat.  Talk about content doggies.  They are all outside noshing away making little weird noises.  I can't explain but it is caught on the video I posted on youtube.

They even left the cats alone when they went oustside.  Normally, Chica has to go and lick their faces as she wags her tail.  The cats hate this....  Snickie and Pepsi have to join in... but not today.

Today Coco is basking in the sun by herself.

Pepsi Cola and Snicker Doodles..

Pepsi, Chica went out walking with us.  Chica was sporting a lovely sweater to keep her warm.  And the big news..... drum roll please... Pepsi walked a long ways.  We are so pleased.  All my hard work with him is paying off.

We also got him a harness which may have helped the situation.  It looks very cute and is nice and sturdy.  Not that you can tell it is cute cause you can't see it.

I am also looking into training for him.  We have to see but it may just happen.  I have been looking into classes.

Snickie is getting fatter now.  Only 20 days left.  She now looks like a normal dog with normal weight.  Unlike her normal skinny self.

She had a short walk today to Jessie's house and back.  Don't want to tax her too much but do want to keep her healthy.   She enjoyed playing with her puppy friends!!  Nacho was quite interested in her today.

She is still getting extra treats, vitamins and puppy food.  January 20th or so we will get an xray to see how many pups.
