June 4, 2001: Hello! My name, as you can see, is Elvis Chico. I came to my new home today. I am six weeks old and at last weigh-in I was only 14.4 oz. My mommy is a dashund and my daddy is a chihuahua. I took after my daddy. I'm going to be an Elvis Fan and I'm told that I'm starting out to be a "Doggie E. T. A." as I try to "sing" with Elvis. Watch here weekly for new pictures as I grow up! I hope to see some of you in Memphis in August!
June 10, 2001: Well, here I am again. I'll be 7 weeks old tomorrow! I don't know what I weigh -- but my new "mommy" says I eat like a horse! What's a horse!?! Next week I go to the "vet" again for another shot -- ouch! But I will find out what I have gained since last week! I guess I'm a Tennessee Vols. fan too! I even have a little sweater made of orange thread -- It fit last week but I'm outgrowing it fast -- I need a new one! Just like a baby -- wear something once and then outgrow it! Well -- I AM A BABY! See you next week!
June 18, 2001: This past week I have grown a bit but I'm still tiny. I think I may have reached the one pound mark (we'll know tomorrow when I get my shot)! I'm now sleeping through the night and have discovered chew sticks, and can run and I have found my VOICE! It's said that I have acquired an ATTITUDE! I get my way -- most of the time.
June 24, 2001: LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! I'm all excited! I have my own bed! But I'm still too little for it. I haven't learned to stay in it. I jump in and out and run around -- no sleeping in here yet. I'm 9 weeks old tomorrow! Gotta tell ya' about my week last week! Yes I got that dreadful shot and some awful tasting medicine -- supposed to make me healthy -- ptewy! But the best part was I got to see my sister and brother! Little I may be but I'm bigger than they are! After all the shots and stuff I got to play with my sister! Her name is "Little Bit". Maybe I can get a picture of her soon to show you. Until next time! Now where did I put that chew stick!?!
