Clipping a dog’s nails
This is my little Chihuahua, Tinker. Ever since they were puppies I read that you’re supposed to touch their feet often and get them used to lying on their back in your lap. You give them foot massages and just hold their paws any time you think about it. This gets them used to people touching their feet. So , that is what I did for my current puppies and with my previous dogs. I keep a little tub of shredded cheese next to my chair & each time I clip a mail, I give them a tiny piece of cheese. I used this process since they were little puppies and because of that, this is now how easy it is to clip my dogs nails. So pro tip for dog owners. When they are puppies, grab their paws often, massage their feet, hold each toe, get them used to being on their back on your lap to get belly rubs. Also very important, this will be the only time they ever get cheese. Now they get very excited for mail clipping b/c it means cheese time. Also, be very gentle and calm the whole time. If they get anxious, try again later. Never fuss. It needs to be a positive experience.

I put a new hat on my Chihuahua and suddenly she could no longer walk ride. It’s a a little while to get used to it. LOL. She’s a hoot. Mama can’t help but she’s just so cute.

Chihuahua spots strangers INSIDE my house at night!
I was in bed last night & all of a sudden Tippy’s hair on her back raised up and started barking & wouldn’t stop. I finally leaned forward so I could see past the door to see what she was barking at bc it was starting to creep me out. Lol. I thought I had turned the TV off before I went to bed, but apparently didn’t and the slideshow of our family pictures was flashing on the screen. She thought the people on the TV screen (pictures of us) were real. Lol. Had to go turn it off. So funny. Dogs are a mess, especially chihuahuas!
