Chal Chal, the Dog of the Day
Name: Chal Chal
Age: Twelve and a half years old
Gender: Female Breed: Pekingese
Home: Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
 
   Chal Chal was rescued at the tender age of four weeks. She was much smaller than the rest of the litter and having difficulty weaning, it was feared that she might not survive. With much love and affection my mom and I took turns feeding her a special concoction and nursed her to health in a matter of weeks. She was truly, my pick of the litter.

    Twelve years later she is a happy, healthy, incredibly spoiled and loving member of our family. Let me just highlight "incredibly spoiled", she has a custom carved oak bed, a lounging bed in the kitchen, a nighttime bed in the bedroom, a bye-bye travel bed and her bed at Grandma's and Grandpa's house, not to mention her wardrobe including, sun glasses, hats, scarves and coordinating sweaters. She is positively all girl and tends to be a bit prissy, she loves to take baths and go to the "beauty parlor" to have her hair and nails done. Chal Chal prances as if she is a royal princess and acts accordingly. She is definitely feisty, she can be stubborn and no doubt demanding, if she wants something she will make you very well aware of it. Over the years we have established an extraordinary bond, she has a rather extended comprehension of my verbal communications. She understands many words and commands. We have conversations on daily basis, she is an excellent listener and amazing secret keeper. What truly makes Chal Chal unique is her individuality and expression. She is a smart, stylish, gracious, independent, and very spunky peke (all the attributes of an awesome female). Not only has she captured my heart and the hearts of her extended family, she captures the hearts of everyone she meets. There is more personality in this extraordinary eight pound little fur-baby than in most people I know. Chal Chal is a loving and loyal companion; she's my best friend. She has placed her paw prints in my heart!
