Chimmie got a new coat today. He outgrew his almost brand new harness vest in about 3 weeks. He was 3.6 pounds when he came to live with us, two weeks later... he was over 5 pounds. Now, he is probably one of the biggest pure Chihuahuas in the world, he is 7.5 pounds. Thing is, he is so skinny you can see and feel every rib. It's that he is so tall and long, Linda swears he is a miniature Doberman and not a Chihuahua. OK, back to the coat story. Linda has been looking everywhere for a warm, furry winter coat with a "D" ring on the back so he does not have to wear a separate harness. She found the absolute cutest fur lined suede coat today. It has a "D" ring, furry collar and it Velcros on the top instead of near his belly. It was only $6.99 too... so what if it's pink? Chimmie is color blind so he won't even know. Today at lunch, Linda's friend said that you just can't dress a boy dog in pink. Especially one that just lost his bits. Too bad says Linda. He is wearing a pink suede coat. We'll post a photo of him wearing it tomorrow.
