1. You rearrange furniture for the Chihuahua. More open space means fewer broken lamps and airborn drinks launched.

2. You've given up on decorating your bed because you keep a permanent "dog blanket" on top of everything. Guilty.

3. Before you have guests over to your house, the first order of business is hiding any evidence of  Chihuahua hair for fear of being "those dog people." And lighting a candle. In every room.

4. You no longer have any privacy. Anywhere.

5. You spend more money on a bag of dog food and a bag of treats than you do a week of groceries for you and your husband.

6. You no longer care about your rugs, because all the corners have been chewed off.
