I want to say THANK YOU to my new friend Marley McButters for starting the quest to find unique pooches all over the planet. And guess who is the featured dog right now...You guessed it! Yours truly, Little Big Head!

THANKS A MILLION MARLEY!

There really is a website for everything. Do you want to see a variety of dogs dressed up in bee costumes? No you don't?!?! Well there is a website that exists if you are curious:

It's official...I am flying Westjet to visit Grandma J this Christmas. There are other amazing things about Westjet other than the fact that they let furry critters fly in the cabin of their aircraft:
You can call Westjet and speak to a live person IMMEDIATELY. Don't believe me, do you? I dare you to give it a try and I guarantee they'll pick up the phone in 1-3 rings and a REAL LIVE PERSON will be on the other end of the telephone. Go ahead and try it.

(I don't know how I became the Westjet spokes dog!)

I'd love to tell a lie and say that I had fun at the Halloween party, but I have to tell the truth. Other dogs just stress me out too much! I'm so mellow and they were all running around, jumping, climbing, and all of that other goofy stuff. I think mom had fun meeting the other parents and trying to get me to socialize with the other chihuahuas. Let me tell you...I was EXHAUSTED after the party (I'll post some pictures from the party soon). Well, it was for a good cause and they raised enough money to help the chihuahuas who aren't lucky enough to have parents. Glad I could help in some

Well, they responded to my concerns. What do you think of their response? Please let me know...

Dear Nikka:

Thank you for your e-mail.

We regret to learn of your disappointment with Air Canada’s recent
change to its policy regarding the carriage of pets in the cabin. While we
appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns, we sincerely
apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.

Like most companies, Air Canada reviews its policies, procedures and
services to ensure that its product offering responds to customer demand
while keeping pace with industry standards and current economic

If you haven't already heard about the recent decision by Air Canada to BAN all pets from the cabin of their aircraft, then I am here to tell you about it! As of September 18/06, Air Canada will no longer allow cute small furries (like ME) to travel in the cabins of their airplanes. This will mean that I will no longer be able to go to visit Grandma J in Thunder Bay or Grandma S in Winnipeg via Air Canada. Flying in the cargo bin would be too traumatic for me and overall just plain cruel.

It is already very difficult for mom & dad to travel; they either have to take me with them or fly a caring relative (who understands all of my special needs) into town to stay with me and give me love (and my medicine). When they went to Vancouver for Uncle C's wedding, they had to fly Grandma J to Toronto to care for me (as a side note: mom & dad flew to Vancouver via Air Canada and Grandma J flew to Toronto via Air Canada). Well, no more. From this day forward, mom & dad will only fly with Westjet and they encourage you to do the same.

Hi everyone!
You've asked for it...and here it is! You can now see video clips of yours truly. Keep checking for new video clips of my adventures.

I went to the beach again this weekend and I got to go right up to the water for the first time ever. It was really windy and my cute pink skirt was fluttering in the wind (sorry if anyone is offended by the mooning). Most of the weekend it was raining, so I spent time inside helping dad work on home improvement projects.

Everywhere I go, I am stopped by curious people. When you are this small and this cute it is inevitable. People say the same old things to me:
-"Yo quiero Taco Bell".
-"I have seen rats bigger than you".
-"That is the smallest dog I have ever seen!"

It is always a pleasure to hear something original. I met a man at the Taste of the Danforth festival this weekend who was creative. He even offered me a Tic-Tac and no one has ever done that before (I wasn't sure if I should be offended)! He told me that I am a "perfect watchdog". I was confused because I am far too tiny to be effective in that role.
