Special Needs Chihuahuas.
Wee beloved chihuahuas with special needs, handicaps, deformities, or health issues -- blind, one-eyed, deaf, paraplegic, missing a limb or two, and so on. These dogs were frequently rescued from sure doom after a period as discarded imperfections, but which in the main scored loving homes and better lives than might've been. Included are several World's Ugliest Dog winners which have included chihuahuas and the related Chinese Cresteds, and which almost always have health issues above and beyond mere homeliness.
Chihuahua Rescued from Hoarders and Puppy Mills.
Every month across America thousands of dogs are rescued from puppy mills where dogs are poorly bred with minimal care -- legal and illegal kennels and backyard breeders against whom the law rarely moves unless or until conditions are agregious and complaints are made. Often overlapping with puppy mills are animal hoarders, who either accumulate or breed (or both) dogs until they are overwhelmed and cannot care for them, but are psychologically prone to irresponsibility toward their animals no matter how incapable of maintaining them healthily. Because chihuahuas are both small and popular, they are frequent top-choices of illegal kennels and hoarders who share a desire to pass under police radar; tiny dogs are more easily kept hidden.

Chihuahuas and their actors, authors, musicians, sports figures, politicians, and all such in the public eye.

Chihuahuas: Classic Hollywood.
It didn't start with today's Paris Hiltons and Mickey Roarks. Chihuahuas have been the small obsessions of entertainers since the early days of Vaudeville, the silent film era, and before the Great War. Not exclusively Vintage Hollywood, this gallery also includes Golden Age European stars, plus a few politicians and famous authors and artists of the past of equal or greater celebrity, from the same early eras.
International Celebrities and Their Chihuahuas.
Celebrities from entertainment industries the world over. I'm just beginning to build this one, but it will soon enough feature chihuahua owning actors, models, singers, etc., from all over Europe, Russia, India, China, Japan, South and Central America. Americans are rather parochial and while our native-grown paparazzi targets are generally well known the world over, the paparazzi targets of, say, Korea or Italy, are apt to be totally unknown to US citizens. Still, it's quite interesting to take a journey 'round the Planet as viewed through the tiny dogs of the somewhere-famous.

Native America Gallery: Dogs of Ancient North America.
Dogs, small and large, are a regular feature of prehistoric petroglyphs, pictographs, and pottery throughout the American West, Southwest, and Gulf states. As the deserts of the Southwest in particular are contiguous with Mexico, it is inescapable that some of the petroglyph (art chipped into rocks) and pictographs (drawn onto rocks) have to be the techichi or proto-chihuahua, the oldest surviving native dog breed; and the dog effigies of tribes from midwestern state have a close relationship to the Colima pottery dogs of Mexico. Herein, a gallery of Native American illustrative and pottery art, with my meditations on their meaning and the place of dogs in prehistoric North America.
