She really is gonna need a jacket, as chihuahuas cannot tolerate cold very well, because they adapted in Mexico, among the warmest of warm climates... But because they are so small, their body temperature even has a hard time regulating in severe warmth as well. Poor babies :-( Good thing that there are lots of cute clothes to put on her! Once she is full grown and I know her measurements, I am gonna do some serious shopping. Here are the items on the list thus far (yes, ridiculous, I know, but such fun, too!):
Oh, and this is the Halloween costume I am getting her. I am in the process of convincing Heidi to have a doggie costume contest for CyberCoders on Halloween. It is looking like it could very well happen--Yay! (Luckily Heidi may be even more of an animal lover than I am, haha) :-)
