Everyone thinks Chihuahuas are just cute little lap dogsโฆ until you meet Manchasโa pint-sized powerhouse with a jealous streak as wide as a football field.
His girlfriend (aka my cousinโs Yorkie, โLunaโ) is the love of his life. And when I say nobody can get near herโI mean nobody. The moment another dog, person, or even a shadow gets close, Manchas goes full security detail.
Weโre talking chest puffed, ears up, growl mode activated. One time, I bent down to pet Luna and he practically body-blocked my hand with a snort and side-eye like, โTouch her and I end you.โ
Itโs pure drama.
He watches her like a telenovela villain.
If she moves, he follows.
If she plays with another dog, he sulks.
If she cuddles anyone else? He stares them down like heโs already planning revenge.
And Luna? Oh, she loves the attention. She struts around like a queen, knowing sheโs got Manchas wrapped around her perfectly manicured paw.
Theyโre the funniest little couple in the dog parkโtiny, fabulous, and chaotic. But donโt let the fluff fool you: if you try to pet Luna without permission, Manchas will throw paws.
