I ALWAYS lose the battle....

I have an established routine that I follow throughout the week and it seems Bits absolutely loves my laundry day!... I have learned to block her out of the bedroom when I am trying to remake the bed for she thinks it is play time... As I flip out the sheet, she'll grab ahold of the one end and attempt to play 'tug' with me... If I stop and release any tension on it, she immediately loses interest in the edge of the sheet... 

Same thing goes for laundry baskets of freshly washed items... I bring them in from the garage and sit the basket on the recliner so I can fold it... If I get interrupted just for a few seconds, Bits will find her way into the center of those warm clothes and when I come back to fold, I'll find her burrowed underneath them... 

Neither Bits nor Kibbles are UC (undercover Chihuahuas), but they love warm stuff from the dryer for some reason... Bits loves to play with you and them, but Kibbles just likes to curl up...

When Bits first arrived here as my foster, I had a heck of a time trying to catch her even to pet her... She was spooky whereas Kibbles was my best friend from day one... Bits now follows me around the house throughout the day, and if I allow her to get up on the bed when I take my nap, she's become a major 'kissy-face' Chihuahua handing out tons of kisses until you beg for a reprieve!

I am positive the shelter folks were SO wrong on the ages of these two... Bits plays with Nacho constantly and he's just turning 6 months... Nacho always wears out before Bits does, as a matter of fact... She is ALWAYS up for a game of catch, and Kibbles thoroughly enjoys his walks...  He's never ready to stop when I am!  Whew!

If I had to make an educated and experienced guess, I'd put Kibbles' age at 7 and Bits at 5 (if that)... When they both had their dentals done, Kibbles only lost one tooth and Bits none... If they were truly the age the shelter staff guesstimated them to be, they'd both have had more bad teeth to be attended to... 

These two are lovely dogs and would make a great addition to someone's home and lifestyle, especially a couple who are moderately active... They prance like a matched set of ponies on lead and have none of that 'snarfy Chi' personality about them at all... Both are major sweeties and love bugs, just waiting for their furever parents to come and adopt them!
