Elizabeth Carmella Baldwin - Lizy, the Dog of the Day
Name: Elizabeth Carmella Baldwin - Lizy
Age: One year old
Gender: Female Breed: Chihuahua
Home: Atlanta, Georgia, USA
 
   Our dog's name is Elizabeth Carmella Baldwin (a.k.a. Lizy). She is a teacup Chihuahua - she weighs 2.1 pounds full grown! At only one year old, we believe that Lizy is the smartest dog in the world. She understands most of what we say to her. Not to mention she is the cuddliest! Lizy has a very unique little personality. She recognizes a lot of what we say, so we have to speak in code when we want to say things like food, outside, Grandma, go, car, bye-bye, and especially treat! She also knows exactly who Mommy and Daddy are.

    She usually gets along well with her brother, Taylor (standard Chihuahua), but if there is a toy involved that they both want to play with, they have what we refer to as a "Mexican Standoff," where they will both sit very still and growl at each other until finally one of them will lunge for the toy. As far as gear, we have to shop for her at the ferret store and she wears mostly ferret clothing, except for a couple of sweaters we have made for her out of children's socks! She loves taking baths and swimming in the lake.
