Hey, its been awhile since we've emailed you, and I thought you might want to hear
about Ali. Shes doing very good. At almost 5 months old she weighs about 2 1/2
pounds (last time she was at the vet,she may weigh a little more now). Shes very
sweet and her and my daughter are great pals. Ali follows her all over and doesn't
let anyone near her if she doesn't know them.  Shes a great member of our family
and we just wanted to say thanks. Shes very loved and greatly appreciated for who
she is.
Thanks again!

Hey Shayna!
Sorry it has taken so long to send you pics of my lil' man, but AGAIN
our internet cable was knocked down by a truck and they are just now
repairing it :)   Anyway, Watson is growing bigger and bigger
everyday.  His last visit to the vet, which was Saturday, he weighed in
at 2.4 lbs!  He seems to enjoy it here and we love him so much...he is
spoiled ROTTEN :)  He so badly wants to play with the older dog (14 yrs
old) and cat, but sadly they want nothing to do with him.  I think they
are jealous of his unmeasurable energy!  Nonetheless, he enjoys
running, romping and chasing insects in the backyard :)  We are still
working on the potty training, but making progress...slowly but
surely...
I guess that's about it for now, but I'll keep you updated.  Thank you
so much for my little bundle of joy! Love,
Desha (Louisiana)
Shayna,
Falynne wanted her grandmother to write and tell you "Hello!"  She is
doing GREAT!  She went for her second to last shots last Monday.  She is
so long and when we hold her and she stretches her neck, she looks like
a giraffe (lol).  I still call her piranha teeth cause when she shows her
teeth that is EXACTLY what she looks like.
She loves to cuddle and you can forget laying down without her being
there.  She especially like the nape of your neck.  She loves to have her
tummy rubbed too!  I am putting some film in to be developed this
weekend.  Hopefully, I can send you SOMETHING and maybe you can
post it on your website.  I was wrong, her sabling is still there, though
very subtle.  She is just the cutest little thing, everyone loves her so
much.  She doesn't like being taken outside on a leash.  Her ears fell
back down and occasionally they seem like they are trying to stand up.  
They do stand "sideways" and she looks like she is receiving radar.
Do you expect any pups soon?  We moved to the outskirts of New
Orleans (Slidell) to a BIG acre lot.  One of my best friends lives down
the street.  She grew up with Chihuahuas and I think she would want
one (like me before Falynne, she has TWO dogs).  But she just loves to
hold her and play with her. We will probably keep you updated off and
on.  Falynne sends a big lick and pulls your hair!
Evelyn (Louisiana)
Shayna,
Epanah (Ee'-pan-ah: means beautiful in Korean.
My wife calls her E-pea for short) is doing great.
She is going back to the vet in a couple of
weeks for her final shots. Epanah is still a ball
of energy like most puppies. She is on the go
about 20 hours a day. Our yard is about half an
acre fenced in and she runs all over it. I
attached a pic that we took about a week ago.
Terry (Texas)
I thought you might like to see some
pictures of Vinny (Wilbur).
He is really sweet and friendly, and never
stops playing until he collapses in
exhaustion.  We are delighted with him!
Judy & Sarah (Tennessee)
I know that one of the attached photos says Dylan & Kelsey
Birthday but it is really Maggie.  She is a whopping 2.6 lbs and
the doc says that is it.  Her growth plates in her legs are grown
as far as they will grow.  Whe will fill out more but she is as
tall as she is going to get.  She has brought me so much
happiness.  I love her to pieces.
The pic in the hat is now the Pet of the Week in our local
newspaper.  She started this habit when I went to visit my
daughter in TN when it was so cold.  I had the hat in my lap in
the car and she crawled into it.  She has many different
colored hats and she loves them all but the original grey is her
favorite.
Thanks again for my friend Maggie,

Hey Shayna,
Jennifer and I wanted to update you
on Simon. He now weighs 3.2 lbs and
is a mess. He is such a great little
guy. He keeps us laughing all day.
Here is fairly recent photo of him. I
will send you more as he gets older.
Thanks for everything,
Todd and Jennifer

Hey Shayna,
I just wanted to let you know that Rocky is adjusting to his new home very well.
He seems to enjoy being around anyone who'll stop to play with him or hold him.
He is so playful and affectionate, and he loves to cuddle. We just love him!
He is doing pretty well in his kennel, and he is learning to "potty" outside.  He
does a little yelping sometimes, but he is getting better.  Well, I'll update you
occasionally.  Thanks for such a great puppy.
Leah (Louisiana) (no picture provided)
This is Squirt, 5 months old.   His
new owner, Tiffany Stuckey (owner
of Squirt's father, Mr.T.) brought
him by to see us.   He's a very sweet,
calm little guy.  He is white with blue
spots and tan points.
Shayna,
I know it's been a while since we've communicated.  Everytime I go to get the
camera to take pix of Izzy and Leah, my husband has the good
camera.  Izzy is now 4.3 lbs on his last doctor's appointment.  He is current on all
of his vaccinations, etc.  He is a pistol! Just as happy and
lovable as can be.  We're still working on the potty training thing.  We're looking
into getting him spayed when it's time.  As I correct that 5 months is around the
time we should get tim taken care of.  What do yo suggest?  What is a going rate?
Will talk soon!
La Tanya (Illinois) (no picture provided)
Hello Shayna!  Hope everything is going well with you!!  Just wanted to let you know that Scruffy (who we
call Memphis)  is doing great.  He is pottying outside pretty good, but at night when we put him in his bed,
boy does he have a fit!!!  I tried to keep him up most of the day
yesterday so he would be tired and it helped a bit, but he cries all night long.  Hopefully he'll adjust soon.  
He didn't eat so good for the first
couple of days but now he is pigging out.  He and sophie, our rat
terrier are getting along good, and the toy rat terrier next door and he have hit it off and play some
everyday.  I'll send you some pictures as
soon as I download them, all in all we just love him and we are so
thrilled he is a member of our family.  How did the litter come out Tuesday? Did she have anymore?  I
think she had 3 when I was there.  Hope it all went well.  Take care and I'll update you again soon.

Hi Shayna,
Just wanted to let you know that Max is doing GREAT!
He's the sweetest puppy ever and I love him! He's
still not quite potty trained, but we're getting
there.
Everyone who's met him has fallen in love...he's SOOO
good with people-adults and children. He hasn't been
around too many other dogs, but is always very
interested when he comes across one.
We're going to get him neutered later this month. His
shots are all up to date and the vet thinks he's
precious!
Thanks, again, for a wonderful pet. He's the best!
Robin (Texas)
Oh, your new pups are cuties, too...not as cute as
Max, of course! "-)
SHAYNA,
FINALLY HERE ARE PICS OF OUR LITTLE GIRL
"MARGUERITA" OR AS YOU CALLED HER
"PENNY". SHE BRINGS SUCH JOY TO US AND
ALL OF OUR FAMILIES JUST LOVES HER.
THANKS,
SHANNON AND TERRI FROM COVINGTON

Shayna,
I hope all is well after the hurricane. I read that
you're expecting a few litters by Christmas. That's
great! I wanted to give you an update on Morgan.
He is doing great! Last vet visit he weighed 2.75lbs.
Can you believe he is 3 months already? He's such
a joy to be around. He is turning a carmel color with
white spots. His markings are so cool. I bought him
a tent today at the store. I have a few pictures of
him in it. It's getting cold here and I can't find a
sweater/jacket small enough so I bought a dog
pattern and my mom is going to make him a jacket.
Lisa (Illinios)
Hi Shayna -
How are you doing? Just wanted to send an update and a few
pictures of Cabo and Daisie. They are both doing great! We are
enjoying them so much. We have returned to our home in Pass
Christian about 3 weeks ago from our relocation in Florida after the
hurricane. We only had minimal damage to our home (a few
shutters blew off) and no water inside the house (just in the garage).
This entire experience of moving around and being in the car alot
has created two very accomodating puppies! They have no problem
at all with being in the car. At their vet appointment last week,
Cabo weighed in at 4.0 lbs and Daisie is holding her petite frame at
3.3 lbs. They are doing pretty good with the potty training. They love
to go outside and from the first time understood they "should" potty
out there. Of course, they still use the paper inside at times and at
night.
Take Care! lena :)  (Mississippi)
Shayna,
As promised I am sending you some pictures of
Lola.  I can't tell you enough how much of a joy
she has brought to my life.  I just love her so
much and she is SO spoiled its not even funny!
Hope things are going well with you.  I saw where
you have more puppies born.  They are gorgeous!
Talk to you later!
Sandy (Louisiana)
Hi Shayna,
Well, Miss Sassy is doing really well.  She has really made
herself at home.  The other pups are beginning to warm up to
her and play with her.  They also put her in her place when they
have had enough.  She runs at them and tries to jump up on
their backs.  She already knows her name very well.  And,
tonight, they are all on the sofa, and I started encouraging
them to sing.  You should have heard.  Sunny, Shadow, and,
yes, even Sassy, were all howling to the top of their lungs.  My
neighbors must have thought I was killing them.  Sunny tries
really hard, but he can't carry a tune.  Shadow does better and
little Sassy does great.  She is a smart little thing also.  She is
learning really fast about commands such as inside, outside,
come.  She is housebreaking faster than any of the others.  She
has taken a special liking to Sunny and he seems to enjoy it.  It
is so amazing to see how they get to know each other and
interact.  Anyway, just had to let you know all this stuff.  I will
send some pics as soon as I can find my camera.  Talk to you
later.

Hey Shayna
Just wanted to send u an update on Chase. So far he is
doing excellent. He just had another checkup and had his
rabies shot. The doctor says he is doing great. Chase is
actually 7 lbs. I am not sure if that is overweight but he
looks like an average chihuahuha to me. Well we still are
in the dog-training process. Well everyday we take Chase
outside to use the bathroom. I take him when I get up for
school and bring him back in when I leave which is about
5:45 to 6:20 and I take him back out when I get home
from school which is like 3:30 and we take him out again
at 10:00 which is his final time after we take him out at
that time.
Thanks
Shauna(Louisiana)
I've been putting off dropping you a line because I was thinking I'd send a photo with
my message, but since I keep forgetting to make a digital photo, I'll have to put that
off.
Lily has completely settled in and we're loving her so much.
I got tired of correcting Alex, so we let him rename her "Leelah".
She is the complete belle of the ball everywhere we take her.
The cats have finally made peace with the fact that she's living with us, so
everything's settled down.

Hi Shayna, just wanted to update you on Foxy...she is sooo
sweet and I love her so much.  Here are some pics of her.  
She loves going to my mom's to visit with her big German
Shepard friends who she likes to sleep on...lol

Hey Shayna,
I just wanted to say thanks for selling me the best puppy
in the world! I renamed him AGAIN..it was Ziggy..but its
Jack now and forever. I couldn't ask for a more perfect
puppy. He goes with me everywhere and he is such a good
puppy. He's playful and happy and best of all...house
broken! He's my gorgeous little Angel & I'm so thankful.
Take care.

Good Morning Shayna,
Just thought I’d keep in touch and
let you know that Spike is doing
wonderful and everyone has totally
fallen in love with him.  He is quite
the spoiled one.  He has done
wonderful from day one.  Here are a
couple of pics of him now (the last
one is with my mom the day we
picked him up from the airport).
Thanks,

Hello, I just wanted to let you know that we had the first
vet visit on Tuesday, and today we ordered the NuVet and
sent the CKC papers. My dad insists on calling her
"Pickle" because she is so little, and she seems to respond
to it, lol, so we changed her name to that. I have some
videos and pictures I am putting together of her and I can
send them to you when I am finnished if you would like.  
So far she is doing extremely well, she eats, sleeps and
plays all day, she especially like to take naps with me on
the couch. I originally was going to be the only person
caring for her and now my parents steal her from me every
chance they get because they like her so much! Everyone
loves her, she is well behaved and is doing well with her
house breaking. I've taken her on a few trips out and she
is very well behaved in the car and my purse and although
she gets nervous at first, she enjoys meeting new people
and they sure seem to like meeting her! Her only problem
when we first got her was seperation anxiety but she's
doing better everyday, especially with her crate. My friend
liked her so much she's thinking of getting one herself.
She really is a great puppy!

I finally got a decent digital camera
and thought you'd like to see what
the boys are looking like.   They are
very happy and loving.  I never
dreamed they would be so colorful.  I
don't even know how to describe
Stitches colors, can you?   I hope all
is well with you and your chichi
family.
Thankyou for bringing my precious
boys to life with your loving care.

Hey Shayna,
I just wanted to send along this new picture of Tweek or
'Andy' as you remember him.  We took it at Jeremy's send
off to the war in Afghanistan.  I sewed him his own little
combat jacket and got the doggles (which he
hates and we can only get him to wear momentarily but the
picture is awesome)  Anyway we figured you may like to
put it up on your website :)  Oh and
we've  been following the National Geographic Channel's
'Dog Whisperer' (Cesar Millan)'s  advice and would highly
recommend it for any of your future owners.  Seems the
key is walk, walk walk! LOL  Anyway hope all is well
on your end!

Hi Shayna & family ;)
Just thought we would update you guys on how great Amigo
(Sid) is doing!  HE has turned into such a handsom young man,
and so very smart!  He is always getting comments on how
pretty he is, and everyone wants to pet hima nd love on him
when we go out for walks.  Which he really enjoys, since he
thinks he is a rock star or celebrity of some sort at least  LOL.  
 He lost the last of his baby teeth this last week, which I have
kept for his "puppy book".  The vet said hes a happy, well
socialized and health little guy at his last check up for shots.  
We just wanted to say thank you for breeding such a good
puppy!

Hi Shayna how are you?...
Copper/Quincy/the baby is doing SUPERB so far!!!!... He
has a doctors apt. Today (Thursday) to get another shot...
Everything has gone quite well.. Hes attitude and behavior
is spectacular.... House training is rough at times, but hes
still growing. We are going to be starting puppy
classes June 20th in puppy obedience!! Everyone just loves
him, my vet the vet techs, my teachers and of course all of
his family!.... He's adorable and i couldn't be happier....... I
have attached sum pictures, but they don't nearly do a
justification to truly how cute he really is!!!................ The
one and only downfall recently, is my amount of working
hours has increased and Ive been leaving him alone longer
than i like. He is in a whole room to himself, however to
much guilt is put on me. I think its time to start looking to
get him a companion.! How
often do you have litters? and will u have any from his
same parents again?..
Please let me know and that would be great..
I will be sure to keep you up to date on him!... and again
thank you for everything and such a
wonderful Baby!
p.s. Hes about 4lbs.5 oz, but still has to grow into his big
ears! hehe

Hey Shayna,
I just wanted to send you an email of some pictures
of Paddy. I don't know if you remember us or not. I
adopted him from you about 2 years ago when you
still lived in Baton Rouge. I always go to your
website to look at the cute little puppies you have. I
always say I'm going to email you some pics but
something always comes up. I saw a picture of him
on your page and I decided to go ahead and do it  :-)
  He looks just like his daddy, Pedro. I hope all is
well in Arkansas and you enjoy the pictures.

Hi there.  Chowder passed his vet exam with flying colors
today.  He is doing quite well.  The only problem he's
having is sleeping at night, and all puppies have that. :)  
I'm attaching a photo of Savanna and Chowder
in one of his new shirts.  He's adjusted to wearing them; I
think he  realizes that it's a bit colder here.  Anyway, I'll
send more pictures soon.
Thanks!

Hello Shayna,
Just wanted to give you an update on little Oliver. He went yesterday
for neutering. All went well, and he's seems back to his happy, bouncy
self today! Once again our vet says he is a perfect chihuahua. He says
he is a wonderful example of the breed, and the healthiest puppy he's
ever seen!! I told him all about the Nutra Vet, and told him it all starts
with a great breeder. He agreed, and wrote down your website for
future reference. They also took a copy of your business card to hang
in the office!  He says he will definitely recommend you if anyone is
interested in getting a chihuahua. He says Oliver is very lucky to have
such a loving home, and he can't wait to meet Kiki.  Me too!  We are
so excited to meet little miss "low rider"! lol
Talk to you soon,
Joey (Montana)  
Shayna,
Oh we are doing absolutely wonderful. He weighs
about 7 pounds 6
ounces. His hair is getting pretty long too. Max is
probably the happiest
most out going loving dog I have ever been
around.  He loves to play,
what looks like soccer, with our ping pong balls
which is pretty funny to
watch! But he LOVES to eat and he LoVeS to
chew on dingo bones! But
thanks for asking!

Shayna,
I REALLY meant to send this email a long time ago but never could remember when i
was sitting down in front of my computer. Bubba was renamed Chico and frequently
gets called the Taco Bell dog! But I can't tell you how perfect he has been for us. He is
spoiled rotten but loves everyone. We take him everywhere and have from the
beginning. He is growing like a weed. No matter where we take him someone
comments on him, from little kids to grown men. He gets all the attention. He has
learned several tricks including boxing and the latest one is praying (really cute). He
loves his momma (my daughter) and even goes with her to her dad's when she goes to
visit him. Down there he has made friends with thier yorkie and her grandma's two
labs! He has been great and we all love him bunches. Thank you so much for
recommending him. If i can ever remember to grab the camera i'll send pics!
Thanks!

He is doing well and is a wonderful playful puppy and a

having him.  Cicelie (Arkansas)

Shayna,
       I just wanted to let you know that "Grady" has
made such a wonderful addition to our family.  He gets
along with everyone and I love that he, like Rosita, is
quite the little snugglebug! They both sleep with me at
night and love to hog as much of the bed as possible!  
He has so much energy that it wears me out just
watching him  :) and he seems to have a natural
curiosity for everything that moves!   He is perfect!  
Thank you Shayna!!!

Hi, we got in about 5 and Nate was here already and had meet
everyone except us.  Is still leary but interested in the cat, as is
he of Nate, but a few days and they will be fine.  He loves
everyone, and had had a great trip with Jane and Larry.  He had a
great vacation with them to Louisianna, and I think they bonded
pretty well.  She said he did really well.  He is beautiful, alert,
interested, playful, and loving.  He basically asked us for food and
water this afternoon, and is learning he doesn’t care for the cat
food!  He loves our yard and grass and runs around like a great
big dog! Wilfred loves how he stands in his ShowDog stance!  He
curled up under Wilfred’s feet for a short nap on our back porch,
as he hasn’t had one much of the afternoon.  I’m sure he will
sleep well this afternoon. He loves his crate and toys.  He isn’t
crazy about his leash yet, but does okay, and is so cute.  Being
used to a big dog, we are having to watch our feet. We think once
he settles into a routine he will be just fine.  I will work on the
papers when he gets back to sleep.  We are in Birmingham
tonight, and tomorrow so he can meet everyone here, and will
head to Tuscaloosa tomorrow afternoon to his other home.  He
will be lots of fun.  You did a great job with him.  I’ll send a
picture of us and Nate as soon as I can get one taken and off the
camera.  Mary Gail (Alabama)
Hi, Shayna, I just thought I would give you a quick update
on Ace...we named him Wilson.  He recently got his last set
of shots and he is doing great.  He has a really sweet
personality and is very confident with himself around our
three cats and our bigger, older chihuahua.  His eyes have
stayed a sort of darker denim blue color.  I think he is
starting to look a little like his dad Dante in the face (how
he looks like he's smiling) and has long legs like his mom
Maya in her photos.  He can run like a little bullet!  He
loves people and has gotten to be buddies with our other
chihuahua.  The older one acts protective of Wilson around
the cats and even runs around and rounds him up when it's
time to come in from going outside!   Anyway, I don't have a
picture to send today, but I will try to do that sometime.  We
still enjoy going to chichibabies.com  to see all of your
babies. Have a good day!

Hi again Shayna,
I am looking for a LC male chi.  I noticed Ian...  I bought
Gidget a few years ago from you she was the offspring of
Ricco and Luna.  She is wonderful, we love her so much.  
Thanks, Shifawn (Arkansas)

Just wanted to let you know all is well with my new
kids. Buddy (Emmitt) is just a doll, we both love him.
His ears finally decided to stand erect this week, it sure
changes his looks. His hair is getting longer now too.
He is doing very well with the housebreaking. His only
problem that I am working on is getting him to come
when called instead of when he feels like it. He is very
food motivated - what a little glutton. I could not have
asked for a better kid than he is. I look forward to the
future years together...
Love the pictures of the new pups on your website. I
will keep looking and maybe someday when I need to
have another baby to take care of, I will call and place
my next order. Keep up the good work.

Hi Shayna,
Well, Miss Sassy is doing really well.  She has really made
herself at home.  The other pups are beginning to warm up to
her and play with her.  They also put her in her place when
they have had enough.  She runs at them and tries to jump up
on their backs.  She already knows her name very well.  And,
tonight, they are all on the sofa, and I started encouraging
them to sing.  You should have heard.  Sunny, Shadow, and,
yes, even Sassy, were all howling to the top of their lungs.  
My neighbors must have thought I was killing them.  Sunny
tries really hard, but he can't carry a tune.  Shadow does
better and little Sassy does great.  She is a smart little thing
also.  She is learning really fast about commands such as
inside, outside, come.  She is housebreaking faster than any
of the others.  She has taken a special liking to Sunny and he
seems to enjoy it.  It is so amazing to see how they get to
know each other and interact.  Anyway, just had to let you
know all this stuff.  I will send some pics as soon as I can find
my camera.  Talk to you later.

Hi Shayna, I meant to write you sooner, busy with
holidays.  Carmen is a little doll!  We just love her, to
death.  She has a great balance of fiesty and sweet
personality!  She went to the vet on Wednesday,
weighed 2.15 lbs. and he said she was perfect.  I'm
changing her over slowly to Royal Canin puppy food,
she seems to really like it.  I'm attaching a couple of
pics, will keep writing you every so often with updates!  
Thanks again and Merry Christmas to you and your
family!  Krystal Stuart (Arkansas)
Hi Shayna,
This is Stephanie Peterson,  we got a little puppy boy from
you names Quimby.  I just want to update you on how he is
doing.  He is the best thing that has been brought into my
life.  His personality is the best.  He loves to play with our big
dog windancer and he rules the house.  I would like to know if
you have any blue long haired little girls or will have any
available in the future?  I want to get another puppy from you
and we have told lots of people about you.  Please let me know
on future puppies.  I will try and send you a picture of
Quimby in the next few days.  He is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you
Stephanie Peterson, Lehigh Acres FL
