A little history

Ole' my name is Chico.  I can't tell you about my first 8 years.  They are a blur.  Perhaps too much tequila?  I was brought to a place called Waggs and Wishes.  I guess I was their Christmas present.  Feliz Navidad!  I was put in a cage on the upper level.  I did not like it.  I did not like anyone but Senorita Andrea.  I wanted out of that cage.  I am a lapdog!  I like to sleep in the bed, under the covers, with a nice human to cuddle with.  I can growl and snarl, but deep down I'm really a nice boy.  My journey really began the day someone named Angie took me to a place.  It was scary and I was mad.  All I remember is getting a shot and when I woke up my bolos, oh what do they call them in English, oh yes, balls, nuts, gonads were gone!  Now how did they do this without my permission?   My manhood, thrown in the trash like garbage!  At least my bark and growl still stayed manly.  I didn't leave with Angie.  Another lady put me in her car and took me home with her.  I was cranky, but she didn't seem to mind.  There were other dogs at her house, 2 senoritas, Sophie and Chloe, and Senor Digger.  They sniffed me, probably wondering where my balls went too.  There was also a cat, Hazel, but she just ignored me that night.  Oh, I can't forget the bird Senor Charlie.  I've never seen a bird in a cage before.  I bet he hates it, just like me. The lady put me in her bed.  Oh, it felt so nice...no cage, no more bars...I was out of jail.  I cuddled with her all night.  I liked this.  The next morning she took me to another house.  There, I met Senor Bailey, and very small chihuahua who didn't seem to like me much.  Someone stole his balls too.  I didn't like it there, so I showed them.  I forgot my bathroom manners.  It worked!  The nice lady came back and got me.  I liked it at her house so much better.  Again, I could cuddle in the bed and even sleep under the covers.  She even lets me watch my favorite show in bed "Everybody Loves Raymond".  But, I didn't want her to get too comfortable, so I gave her a little growl ever once in a while to keep her in line.  This, my friends, was the start of my new journey.  I don't live a very exciting life, but I will be back tomorrow with some of the highlights.  Buenas noches para ahora!
