A Tiny Boy Named Taco

Taco was very happy to get his name tag
- even if it's almost bigger than he is

One day, not so very long ago, my friends Veronica and Evan found a little tiny dog wandering through their neighborhood.  He is a Toy Chihuahua and Veronica was very worried that the little guy was going to come to harm wandering about loose.

So, she took him in.  Just until they found his owners, of course...

Of course!

When no one came forward claiming the tiny fellow, they were determined to take him to a shelter and give him up for adoption.

That went well.

Veronica suddenly found she couldn't bear to leave him with strangers.

It takes a big man to... well, you know

Taco got his name rather accidentally, but it stuck.  Little Taco is about as big as a Taco Bell macho taco, and mucho cuter.

Let's face it.  You know you are in trouble when you give an animal a name... and a comfy bed... and a collar...  and... yeah, you catch my drift!

I love the above photo of Evan taking Taco for a walk.  It takes a very secure man to walk such a teeny little dog!  Taco is about the size of Evan's shoes and could easily fit into a ladies' purse.

Looks like one little teeny tiny Taco has found himself a good home.

Good doggy!

I am now the King of all I survey!

Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone!
