First visit to the vets, and my, what a hit!

Elvis & Priscilla (to be called 'Gidget' by her new mom) went today with Ginger and her litter to see our favorite vet (Dr. K. at Valley Vets), and the two of them along with Ginger's puppies, were MAJOR hits... Now that everyone has had their first series of shots and the two litters are only 2 weeks apart in age, they reside together in the same HUGE Xpen...

So they were pretty comfortable riding together in the large kennel to the vets office as well... It's the kind of kennel that opens from the top as well as from the front, so once I 'popped the top' Elvis and Priscilla kept trying to make these leaps for life out of the kennel!... It was like trying to stop random jack-in-the-boxes from popping up without warning!

Priscilla has developed into a somewhat sedate nice young lady, but Elvis? He's ALL Chihuahua... not a clue as to just how tiny he is right now nor that he'll never be a BIG dog - just his attitude is the persona of the typical Chihuahua - 5 lbs of weight with a 100 lbs of attitude as I seem to say constantly! :)

With both, their tails are up and curled over, ears are up and just the very ends are still are folding over... Won't be long now and they'll be that upright radar ear that everyone is accustomed to when seeing a Chihuahua... Both of these guys will be VERY little though... I doubt if they'll get more than 5-6 pounds as adults...

They've learned what the pitty pad is for (finally!)... Prior to this, it was something for them to chew up and pull out of the pitty pad holder... ... For the most part, after eating and drinking, they'll both walk over to it and do their business... They have not yet been outside and in grass - just to the vets office and at adoptions where we required everyone to use hand sanitizer prior to touching them...

They should be spayed and neutered next week... They are just now hitting 2 pounds (barely), but they are 2 pounds of nitro when they get going!... LOL... On occasion, I have to go over and tell them "NO" because they can get a bit rough (at least in my opinion) and aggression is a big NO-NO in my home... Elvis looks up immediately when I say his name or "NO" now... But he's still SO full of himself!!
