Aren't they beautiful? I simply adore them. Tobi is a great chihuahua. He was severely traumatized at the pet store where I bought him (which is the reason I think my boyfriend bought him - he fell sorry for the little guy). He was 7 months old, very fat, the cage was very small and he smelled of urine. The first week he would wimper and not allow anyone to touch him, but almost 2 weeks later he started coming around and WHAT A DOG! Super-lovable, but he had such a hard beginning in life. It took two years for Tobi to lose the fear of someone touching him from behind (I swear they probably kicked him at the pet store), but little-by-little, he's come around and he is a very affectionate dog. I still wish I had gotten him when he was a puppy - he deserved a lot more than being thrown in a cage for the first 7 months of his life. Knowing what I know now, I would never buy another animal from a pet store - it just promotes horrendous breeding, although Tobi and I are lucky we found each other.
