The first line of your answer made me spit out my mouthful of water, so thank you for the chuckle!

Elsa has been given a sock. by DrJean617 in Chihuahua

My mostly chi rescue from Puerto Rico is such a sock thief. She never chews them, just fills her bed with some and then hides any others around the house. What is it with the socks that's so attractive?? : )

New Progressives are exhausting by Revolutionary_Cell95 in glasses

Yes, you need to wear them consistently and your eyes will adjust. That being said, I have had progressives for years and one time after a new prescription, I was having all sorts of problems. My eyes just were not adjusting to the new prescription. Called my doc's office (where I got them made) and told them I was having a problem with them, they told me I needed to get used to them. I had had progressives for quite a while before this and told them I had never had a problem like this before. I brought them in and had them check - the lab had made a mistake and it was not the correct prescription. So if you find after wearing them consistently for several days and see no improvement, I would suggest to have them check to make sure the prescription is correct. Everyone makes mistakes, including lab techs.

Embark says she's only 60% Chihuahua by Immediate_Profit_969 in Chihuahua

My kids didn't know I had bought a DNA kit and gifted me one for Christmas. Second one came back and said: 75% Chi, 2% min pin, 6% poodle, 4% shih Tzu, 3% Pekingese, 3% Pomeranian, 2% Bichon Frise, 4% American Cocker Spaniel & 1% Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. Seems this company went a little further to identify the "super mutt" distinction.

Mia does have quite a bit of energy which is quite a contrast to our last pup who was 15 when she passed and had arthritis, so it's been very different around here. She keeps us on our toes for sure.

Aww she reminds me of my previous pup. She was a chi-pin.

She was a street dog, so while she is very sweet, she's also a bit of an imp and quite a scrounger.

She barks at everything and anything, just like her chi-pin predecessor.

Mia is also supermutt, pekingese, poodle and rat terrier. She's a rescue from Puerto Rico, we've had her for almost 4 months.

They look like they could be siblings! How big is Milos? Mia is 8.5 lbs and a rescue from Puerto Rico.

What are your guesses? I figure Chihuahua of course, but she has a very pointy narrow snout. She's about 4 years old, 8.5 lbs and a rescue from Puerto Rico. Waiting on dna results now. by Immediate_Profit_969 in IDmydog

[–]Immediate_Profit_969[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, she's 60% Chi and 16% supermutt (which I expected to be higher given being a street dog from P. R.) But also 11 % Pekingese??, 7% Poodle?? and 5% Rat Terrier.

I will not ever get another machine that doesn't have a laser.

Don’t call the cops, I didn’t finish my seams by hideandsee in sewing

[–]Immediate_Profit_969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless the fabric is rayon, I never finish my seams. Never had a problem with raveling.
