Poncho, the Dog of the Day
Name: Poncho
Age: Two years old
Gender: Male Breed: Chihuahua
Home: Indiana, USA
 
   Poncho is Mr. Personality! But he is very protective of his family and not very friendly to strangers. We got him at a flea market in Ohio. We went back four times and looked at him before we talked ourselves into buying him. (We already have four outside dogs.) It was the best decision that we have ever made.

    He likes to look at everyone but do not try to touch! He sleeps with us whenever we go to bed. (We work rotating shifts and sleep days sometimes - he's always there) He is forever happy and glad to see us. His best friend is Sam our 85 pound boxer. Poncho is clearly the Alpha dog in our group of five dogs. He likes to boss everyone else around. He sits in our bay window when we are not at home and surveys his domain! He's MY best friend.

    Poncho is our little lover dog. He is a great guard dog and does bark a lot but we expected that with a chihuahua. He is extremely protective of my husband and I. Poncho is two years old and a full-blooded Chihuahua but not registered. He is friends with one of our cats and avoids the other one. His fur is slick as a mole because of all of the petting and rubbing he gets all of the time. What a lucky dog!!
