Hi, I’m Pat, I live in Oamaru, and am retired. My late husband and I have always had dogs, Chihuahuas, and Poodles,—small, medium, and large. And yes, the Chihuahuas are always the boss. Nowadays I only have one dog, a 3 yr old longhaired Chi called Daisy. She is the meet and greet specialist, who loves babies, adores children, and hasn’t met an adult she doesn’t instantly love. People who think Chi’s are snappy are wrong, Daisy is our third one and none of them have been like that at all. They’ve all had the loveliest natures. Daisy is looking for a buddy. My husband passed away 2 years ago, and shortly after, our last poodle died too. So Daisy lost two friends. She misses her playmate, so I am hoping to find a puppy or dog to share our home with.
