This is OT, but I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am that you lost your chihuahua. I buried one of mine this summer, and my big mixed breed died of heartworms last month also. I still have 4 other dogs, but still am grieving the two I lost.

I quoted the wrong post! I meant to address it to LadyRider.
My condolences to both you and LadyRider.
I know the pain of losing a beloved dog. I lost my 9 yr old beagle in April and Im still comforting my very lonely 10 yr old spaniel.
