Chili: A History



I figured the best place to start with Chili's story is the beginning, or at least the beginning with us.

We found Chili at the Savannah Humane Society in Savannah, Georgia. He was jumping up and down in a little pen with 5 other small dogs, and won our hearts over immediately. We adopted him the next morning, July 1st, 2006. We quickly became a happy family!

Chili's first vet visit went well, he was in perfect health! (He also had to be muzzled since he tried to bite the technician when she tried to take his temperature. In all fairness, many people would have done the same thing!) He saw the Independence day fireworks with us and loved it!

We spent Chili's 1st birthday (October 1st) in the park near our house. He loved laying in the grass. A few weeks later, Chili met his best friend; Loki! Loki's "Dad" was in a class in school with me, and Loki's "Mom" later became a great friend. Sadly, Loki and Chili were separated when we all moved away from Savannah (there was a happy reunion in August).

We moved with Chili to Raleigh in 2007, and a few months later, adopted a sister for him, named Bridgett. She's a bit older than him, but loves to play with him and acts like a great big sister! Chili is very happy, and loves going on neighborhood walks and to the dogpark to meet up with other members of the Raleigh Toy Dog meetup group!
