Pets

i'm a chihuahua mom too. When my first chihuahua Chase passed at 15 3/4 years old, I had his little casket engraved "the best dog there ever was." My vet told me then there will always be that one dog - I think Zatanna was your husband's one dog. Chase was mine. Now i tell people that Chase was the dog that convinced me I never want to live without a dog again.

Now we have little Chai - got him almost immediately after Chase passed. He's my best friend and constant companion through this pandemic. He's tiny too, but due to a catastrophic neurological event, he's been on steroids and crashed the 5 pound mark. Fortunately no pain, but he lost the use of his right hind leg. He's improved but it's beginning to look as if there may always be a deficit and he's only 3 years old.

There's nothing quite like a dog for unconditional love. I am so sorry for your loss. She had a great life with you!
