I have eight dogs. That's right. Eight. Are they mine? Yes, they are. How am I able to take care of all of them? Well, sometimes I ask myself the same question. I love my dogs as if they were my own children. Their names are: Pebbles, Toby, Fievel, Tiger, Angel, Chubby, Chikita, and Louie.

This is Angel. She is my little panda bear. :) Angel is a maltese and is special because she happens to have white and brown hair. Out of all her brothers and sisters I chose her! :D She is my 5th dog and loves to watch t.v. No really, she does! She sits on the sofa and stares right at the television. Plus she barks when there's a loud or scary part in the movie. I find this to be one of the most adorable things that she does. What she also likes to do is hide herself under my pillows or blanket. She thinks she's the queen of my bed sometimes. That's when I challenge her and wrestle her. Rawr! She usually beats me though. :tears: She's very petite, loving, and sometimes feisty!

This is Chikita and Chubby. :D Chikita is a girl and Chubby is a boy. They are both my 6th and 7th dogs. Chubby is a few minutes older than his sister, Chikita, who came out a few minutes after him. Chikita is very energetic. She reminds me of Angel a lot. Chubby is such a funny boy. He runs around like he's a horse. He has a tiny patch of white fur right on his chest. It makes him even cuter! Ahh! What's funny is that when Chubby was born he was already a piggy. I had to guide him to the food since he was so clueless. Here's a funny story about him. The very first time he was ready to run around I let him outside. He IMMEDIATELY ran right INTO THE SWIMMING POOL! hahaha. I laughed as he splashed away. Then I leaned over and picked him out of the pool. What a funny boy! Chikita is not like him. She is very tidy and looks out where she walks. She's a neat girl.

Here's Chubby again. Doesn't he look like a baby bear here? Yes. him and his sister fit right into my hand like this. Super tiny!

Again, Chubby, resting on my shoulder. Look at his white paws! hehe

Pebbles is my 1st dog. She's a Jack Russell Terrier and my most athletic dog! She jumps VERY high! She is the leader of all my dogs. Even my biggest dog listens to her. hehe. I love to play fetch with her. She has so much energy and I do too! Perfection! I have a pretty big back yard so throwing the tennis ball has always been fun. She runs amazingly fast! My big dog, Fievel, also likes to play fetch as well. Tiger does too! haha.

These 2 boys are Toby and Tiger! :) :D They were laughing because I told them a joke! hahaha

This is Toby! He has a unique eye color! Toby is half jack russell terrier and half chihuahua. Toby is my 2nd dog. Toby does not have the sense of hearing. I found out a few weeks after I got him because I noticed he didn't wake up if I was loud, etc. He has learned how to use his other senses such as feeling and sight to replace his hearing. Pebbles treats him like her little brother and watches over him no matter what. They both sleep in the same doggy house together. Fievel, Chubby, and Tiger sleep together in another dog house. It's cute because Fievel is so big that Chubby and Tiger cuddle with him. :D hehehe.

Here's Tiger again. Tiger is actually part terrier (a different breed of terrier) and part chihuahua too. The breed people often mistaken him for is a Pomeranian, however, he is not. He smiles A LOT! Plus he has chinky eyes when he's laughing. :D hehehe He follows me around all over the place while the other dogs are roaming somewhere else. If I were to hide in the backyard he would not rest till he finds me. No joke!

This big boy is Fievel (5-oh). Also, he is a mixed dog. I forgot what the 2 breeds he is part of though. He is my biggest dog and happens to be very, very, very smart! I mean it. Tell him things in English or Vietnamese and he'll understand! :D Out of all my dogs I probably walk Fievel the most because he may gain weight faster than the other dogs. I like to keep all my dogs in shape, just like myself! :) We usually take walks on the hillside. Nothing, but the wilderness with me and Fievel. He likes it when you rub his tummy too! Also, sometimes he rubs his back against the palm trees! Just like Baloo the bear from the Jungle Book! :D [img]http://www.davidhchiem.com/author%20photos/fieveianditagged.jpg[/img][/center] Pebbles and Fievel.

This puppy face is Louie. She's a full breed Maltese. She's number 8. Louie is super energetic, friendly, and a baby of course.

And this is a friend of the pack. :o)
