Reached this stage in life and had the overwhelming urge to buy a Chihuahua puppy ? Is it that last bit of maternal instinct wanting something to mother because I know I cant have babies? Even tho I didnt want anymore babies lol. Just saw a video of my friends chihuahua and felt like I HAD to have one !

I'd rather have a floppy eared, doe eyed spaniel. However, it will never happen. Hubby allergic to cats & dogs.

Awww thats a shame. I have one of those and he is adorable. He is a cavalier king charles and was supposed to be a lap dog but he is not! He is a wild crazy thing who tears around on the beach and digs holes all day and prefers to sit on the floor rather than my lap
. Altho he does follow me everywhere and sulks when I'm not at home bless him.

Cavaliers are all spaniel under that coat
…… my friend picks up his 10 week old Tri-pup in the morning
We are surrounded by cockerpoo pups too - so no need for me to get broody

My mother had one.....we dubbed it the rat with long legs.
Cuddly they are not, sweet tempered they most definitely are not.
Hard work they are, oh and difficult to feed as they are so picky.
Not my favourite breed.
If you want a little dog that is a lap dog, that is soft and cuddly then look at a teacup Poodle. They are lovely.

A Teacup Poodle is a size of poodle that when they are pups will fit in a teacup. They are just lovely.
I have a Bichon who loves a cuddle. She will lie on my lap like a baby on her back....for ten mins before she is off causing havock.

Who says Prana: we have sled dogs down our street and they are fine. There are all types of first cross being bred, puggles are sweeties (beagle/pugX). Like all breeds one should consider what they were bred for originally: i.e. JRs chase and kill rats, sled dogs and dalmations will run miles for hours ……….. at a regular pace, slightly quicker than a man or in my case, are able to
.
We have chichuaasss (sp) locally and they are sweeties but I couldn't own one 'cos I can't spell it
I've always fancied a macaw ………. or a Harris Hawk

I had a similar urge last year, but for a little ginger kitten. I think it was turning 43 and accepting I'd never give birth. Needed to mother something. Needless to say, I now have a very naughty, very much loved red lion (sitting on my lap as I type). Rules the roost, but I don't mind

Wow this thread has grown since I've been away
As I said I have a Cavalier King Charles spaniel but we also have a Boxer, 3 very old cats (ages 20,14 and 13) and 3 mini lop rabbits. Still have this longing for a tiny tiny lap dog tho
My friend has a gorgeous Chihuahua who is affectionate, sweet and freindly and very good with little kids. So I might try to go to the same breeder if and when time comes
My daughter in law loves pugs but I think she ought to get on and have a real baby first lol.

My friend collected a new Tri-colour Cavalier Boy last week - we hope to see him this week
Pugs are great …….. as R French bulldogs …….. fit in a rucksack on long walks

Interested to know which gene has come out in that mix
. Usually a Staffie gene shows through ……. I met a terrier today the owners tried to tell me it's a border terrier ……..NO WAY
more like a Lakeland but in 'grey' …….
We had breeders locally who kept the tails on their boxers
they were so proud
When will you hear the patter of tiny paws?
