If ever there was an “it” dog for 2009, it is the Chihuahua. Thanks in part to Chihuahua toting actresses like Paris Hilton and Jessica Simpson, Taco Bell commercials, and movies like Beverly Hills Chihuahua, those little doggies are more fashionable than anything you might find on Fifth Avenue or Rodeo Drive. Deservedly so, Chihuahuas are fun and active, great for people who live in the city or in apartments, and have tons of character.However, what happens when the novelty of owning the latest “it” pet wanes, only to be replaced by the time, attention, and needs they require? California animal shelters are finding that out first hand.
