Chihuahua by Natalie Lunis Pdf

Chihuahuas are the world’s tiniest dogs, but that doesn’t stop them from being some of the bravest and boldest canines around! Right off the bat, you’ll meet Zoey, a five-pound Chihuahua who saved her one-year-old companion from a rattlesnake bite—by getting bitten herself! Where did this courage come from? Perhaps it came from the Chihuahua’s ancestors, who lived with the Toltecs and Aztecs of Mexico as far back as 1,000 years ago. Today, the little dog is found in the homes of everyday citizens, in movies such as Legally Blonde, and even in Taco Bell commercials. Chihuahua: Señor Tiny is a narrative treat for dog lovers that includes amazing, real-life stories about these little pups while also recounting the breed’s history and its relationship to the animal’s physical characteristics, personality, and suitability as a pet.
