Broadening my Horizons

As you all know, I LOVE dogs. I have visions of myself with silver hair, coffee in hand, and a distasteful amount of canines. There is a strong possibility that I may, despite my best efforts to resist, become a crazy dog lady. Please pray for me.
.
As you also know, there is one specific dog breed that I dislike, in fact I detest the little rats. chihuahuas. I do not want to offend any chihuahua owners, it just so happens I had never met one I liked. They all seem to want to gnaw on my hand as though it were a pork ear. That is, I had never met a chihuahua that I liked until two weeks ago.
.
Meet Wubba Wubba is a pekingese-chihuahua mix aka pickachew. He was originally named mochachino, but quickly decided to shun his namesake for the much cooler Wubba, which is also the name of his favorite toy.
.
I like Wubba. I like the way he delicately ate steak off of a fork, I like how he laid next to the campfire without neurotic shaking, and I like that he didn't incessantly bark at me, and try to eat my face. I think he likes me too.
