Two beautiful Chihuahua girls with unique markings of golden and black a.k.a. brindles with opposite markings. When we took them into our home July 2013, we were advised they were approximately a year and a half old. However, we believe they were younger due to behaviors and actions. Both sisters have very sweet temperaments and love to give and receive kisses. The darker brindle of the sisters which we named “CoCo” (i.e. COCO Mademoiselle Perfume from Channel) being incredible good with young children in her face, touching her, holding her, playing with her. CoCo has never bitten, snipped, or growled with my 5 year old son. “Blonde” the golden brindle is good with my son; however, when provoked and prodded too much by my active and loving son, Blonde gives a mini growl of warning, and if not heeded will snip, but never touching skin. They are both lap dogs soaking up love and attention any chance they get. They love cuddling when you are sleeping, but can sleep just fine on their own. They are kennel trained and do not urinate or defecate in their kennel even when our work schedules are 12 hours. They are kenneled together with no issues as this is the current kennel conditions. They eat high quality small bite dry crunchies approximately ¾ of cup mixed with an egg in the morning. In the evening they consume approximately ¾ cup dry with some moist prepared dog food. So in total for both girls, your family will only go thru 1 & ½ cup of dry crunchies per day. They can either eat from the same bowl or you can divide the portions into two bowls as they are not possessive over food. They love to run free in the yard, smell the fresh air, sunbathe, and play either with each other or a human. The girls are also harness/leash trained and walk to the right side together very well. House training has been a challenge, and our family has been working hard to correct some issues of “doing their business” indoors. I believe this would not be an issue if they were allowed plenty of free time in the yard, as they take a while to “do their business” trying to decide the perfect spot. Oh, Coco never yips or barks unless there is something she is unsure of and Blonde only barks when she see a Muscovy duck, while playing, or to get your attention. They are beautiful, dynamic, charming, and very loving female Chihuahuas who want a furever home with lots and lots of attention. They are up to date with their vaccines, are neutered, and heartworm free. They are on monthly regime of heartworm tabs and flea/tick killer.
