Chachi
is a Cairn Terrier mix, very smart and a light in our lives. We
adopted her from the Hawaiian Humane Society in Honolulu in 1992. Three
months later, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and like many other
women, was devastated. Chachi was with me every day giving me comfort
and love which made the fear a little more bearable. That was ten years
ago and she just keeps growing dearer to us each day.
Being a little warm weather Hawaiian girl, Chachi was quite shocked when
we moved to Chicago five years ago where she saw snow and experienced cold
weather for the first time. Her reaction was very funny. She hopped
around, picking up her feet out of the snow and sniffing them. She has
since grown a thick undercoat of fur - funny how God provides for our
little creatures!
The picture shows Chachi stealing her Christmas gift from under the
tree. She sniffed all the gifts, picked out the one for her and quickly
ran under the dining table where she took out the candy cane shaped
treat and ate it!
