    well, you could do like a friend of mine -
    She says all the letters - Chi Hooa Hooa -
    and it's contagious. I find myself saying that instead of chihuahua...
    I think I like the way you spell it best.

    my 2 poodles try to keep me company, but they like to interrupt to remind me that they need some attention. There are 2 pet beds here in the sewing room, and usually at least 1 of the 2 dogs is in one - sometimes both - but they are very very spoiled pups and I usually get up and play with them for a few seconds and then return to my projects. It seems to satisfy them, though

    My Doberman is not allowed in my sewing room. 1---I do alot of work for other people. I don't ever want a person to have an allergy problem or find pet hair on my work. 2---My dog almost died after eating a piece of fabric. It got caught half in his stomach and caused the intestines to tangle. One opening in his stomach and two in the intestines had to be made to get the piece of cloth out!!! He is almost three now and I think he is out of the chewing stage but I don't take any chances.

    I had a cat and she loved to be in my sewing room. I also have two dogs that sit in my sewing room and watch me.

    My German Shepard, Dillinger, is my constant companion. If I am in my sewing room, he is in there sleeping on the floor somewhere, usually where I have to step over him. He is my guardian/protector. Since I have no neighbors for over 3 miles and am often home alone, I feel so much safer with him nearby.

    My shih tzu," Sadie" always comes into my sewing room when she feels it is time to go to bed, and stares at me until I give in.

    Do you have a choice?? I can close my door upstairs, but as soon as I open it someone runs in. They have various spots they love- not all of them on fabric. But they love this room because of the sun and I have a really hard time denying them. I do try and put a sheet over my WIP if out on the cutting table. then if they lay on that, they don't hurt anything.

    Oh...did I mention my pets are Siamese cats who know they rule the world!
