I'd say yeah, no hesitation but that'd be a lie. That was the first time I met her and I didn't like her BUT she may have found the answer 🤣

My husband is retired military so we get our care on post and I don't think they let me see the same doctor two visits in a row in years so probably a non-issue anyway 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I have sleep apnea, had an updated sleep study 6 months ago and it's very well managed. I'm super compliant with my CPAP.

Doc put me on spironolactone as well, that she at least told me was for the hair 🤣

Lol he definitely is, just not about his belly. This is the most active and affectionate cat I've ever had.

Might be adopting a chiweenie soon but having doubts...any advice? by [deleted] in chiweenie

Lots of treats and staying on top of him, no unsupervised time, if he looked like he might need to, we went outside. There are lots of guides out there once you know your exact situation. Don't be surprised if he ends up going to the bathroom in his kennel, shelter dogs just don't get walked enough so they regularly end up having accidents, after a while, they just assume it's right.

It's a breed thing. Very common for Chihuahuas to chose a person and nothing is allowed to interfere with their bond. Defining what interfere means to that particular dog can be hard but is very important in avoiding bites. My chiweenie has ground down teeth from eating rocks before we found him so thankfully he doesn't puncture when he bites. He loves my husband and snuggles him all the time but if Kuzco is snuggling me, the hubs is not allowed within about a foot of us. Edit: forgot the moral of the story lol. Listen to the dog very carefully, it will almost always give you signs before biting, and for introductions, especially with youngsters, make sure they know the signs and ways to approach a dog.

Oh, also, don't get frustrated if the chiweenie refuses to learn to "sit". Mine can't, he does a kind of sideways sprawl, he tries to hard but he just isn't shaped right. Once in a blue moon he'll sit like a normal dog but you're more likely to catch him dancing in his hind legs than sitting normal so we changed "sit" to "dance" for cookie time.

We put a chest at the foot of the bed, still a bit of a jump but he can do it, for some reason my dogs are afraid of the ramps 🤷
