In april the love of my life was stolen from me. My 4 1/2 lb chihuahua "shakey" I have another chihuahua, his sister pepper. Pepper and I have missed him so much since he has been gone. I just started looking at pups again. Then I got a phone call from my mother-in-law saying a friend of hers had bought a dog out of an abusive home and told me she would give me it for free because she knows I’m a chihuahua lover and would take good care of her. She defiantly has been hit and yelled at allot. She is afraid to even eat. I had to hand toss piece by piece last night going "its okay baby its okay yummy mollies food. Its for mollie its okay" then I would repeat it to my chihuahua pepper so Mollie would see its okay. She is very sweet, but extremely shy and scared. I am doing my best to give her space, but let her know we love her and its okay to come near us and eat with us. Her and Pepper are exactly the same size 3lbs and have really taken a liking to each other. Which is great! I just want this poor baby to be happy. Do you have any tips to help make her feel better about her self and her new home? We are extremely affectionate with our animals. All of them are spoiled to death. Mollie has no self confidence in her self. Like I said shes even afraid to eat , like she usually gets yelled at for doing it. I have adopted a dog before, but not like Mollie. I just want to rehabilitate this young chi(8-10 months) to my best ability! I already love her so much. I believe god put her with me to help heal each others hearts! She is the first dog that I have fell for since my male chi was stolen in April.
thank you for saying you found your dog after 6 months…that put a light in my heart again. I will never stop looking for him until the day I die. He was and still is my world!
I have let her sleep in the bed with all of us since she came home. thats me my fiancee…pepper and our pug Reggina..and of course our new love Mollie : )
