Hadji update, Lost-and-Found Chihuahuas

Hadji has been adopted by a nice young family in east Bulverde. Now he runs in the backyard with another Chihuahua, two Border Collies and a two year old big brother. They seem to be pretty happy together, one more success story!

Now I’m sure there will be more little souls like Hadji who will pass through our lives on their way to a new home. Wish everyone well by closing your eyes for just a moment and making a vision of a happy little puppy face. Thinking love creates love.

Meet Hadji

dscn0152Lost-and-Found Chihuahuas

Hadji is not so shy now so we got his picture for all to see. He has a nice personality, already asking to be a lap dog and devoted. He weighs 6.4 pounds, is house trained and knows how to use a dog door.

Hadji spends the day with the other three Chihuahuas and one Cairn Terrier in my grooming shop. He has always been polite and does not show any aggression or bossiness at all. He met the cats this morning with casual passing interest.

A kind friend to canines (Thank you MC!!) has sponsored Hadji’s neutering, shots and microchip. After that ordeal is over Hadji has agreed to be interviewed for his new home.

Hadji is a lucky little boy. He will be cared for and loved the rest of his life. There will be others like him, and any donations are welcome to help make it happen.

Lost-and-Found Chihuahuas

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love Chihuahuas. They are brilliant dogs, smart, personable, very aware of their environment and the people therein. Small and portable, easy to feed and alert, they can be daring little clowns.

South Texas, perhaps by virtue of proximity to primal lands, has become a popular place for raising, caring for and sadly, alas, abandoning these little gems. It’s too easy, it seems, to cast them aside when inconvenience strikes.

Yesterday a little brindle boy, lost, cold, hungry, frightened, was spotted by a friend of mine and was thus rescued and brought into the fold. My favorite veterinarian, Dr. Madigan of the Animal Hospital of the Smithson Valley, has checked him out and deemed him sweet, healthy and lovable. After his ordeal (he had been observed and uncatchable for a few days) this little dog is remarkably friendly and so wants to be trusting.

He is too shy right now for pictures, but soon his little face will be on this website for all to see. After his neutering, shots, chip etc. he will be available for adoption to some very lucky family or person.

Any donations to help off-set medical expenses for these little guys are very welcome. Checks of any size can be made out to Canine Comforts with “Lost-and-Found Chihuahuas” in the memo section. A little love and kindness goes a long way when you only weigh five pounds.
