What is good about having a pet?

For those of you old enough to remember, there was a t.v. show called ‘Chico and the Man’ 1974. I didn’t (haven’t) watched it. I am only aware of its existence.
The phase of my life since Chico has lived with me can be subtitled ‘Chico and the Woman’.
Honestly, I never wanted an indoor dog. And THOSE people that took their dogs EVERYWHERE with them just upset me greatly. I not speaking of service animals here.
My how times have changed. Chico doesn’t go everywhere with me but I don’t want to imagine my life without him.
He has been good for me overall. He’s part of most of my work. I have to get off my butt and take him out. He likes to cuddle. He’s soft and warm. I once dated a fellow who said to me getting Chico ‘softened me’. Maybe it was him. Maybe it was God through him.


Chihuahuas come with a list of issues that cause people not to want them. I sure do love mine.
So cute!

I remember Chico and the man! I don’t remember the characters because I was pretty young, but I know I watched it as a kid

Growing up, we had 1 or 2 channels. I remember watching PBS a lot. 🤭

Thinking about adding a fourth beagle to our household. They can also be difficult, but we love and know how to handle them. A friend found one that needs rehoming, currently about 2 hours away at the SPCA. We’re thinking about it . . .

I love beagles but they have a lot of energy. Bless you, that’s a lot of beagles. If you do end up taking it, sounds like it will not want for love. 🐕
