Sheridan Oliver Martin wanted her next dog to be an adorable chihuahua and when she told her husband, Sinclaire, she knew he wouldn’t quite agree as he doesn’t like small dogs and the ‘made it clear.
Sinclaire always had in mind the idea that little dogs bark a lot and are bad boys who do a lot of stupid things. He always thought about having another large dog that could handle his German Shepherd / Pit Bull mix named Merlin.
Sheridan told The Dodo:
“I wanted a big, strong dog who could play hard with Merlin and I didn’t think a small dog could.”
Chihuahua conquers the heart of the man who does not like small dogs
Sheridan had owned a Chihuahua before as a child and it was clear that he should not be underestimated due to his size.
She says:
“I begged and begged him and finally he gave in and said that by my next birthday I could [get a chihuahua]. I remember the whole week before and the whole road trip. There she lectured me on how she was going to be my responsibility and my dog and it was not going to have anything to do with her.”
They eventually adopted a baby girl named Pickles and when she met her new father she stole her heart. She looked at him with her big eyes and came over to give him a hug and a few kisses to completely captivate him.
Sheridan remembers:
“As soon as the car door closed he turned to me, pointed at Pickles and said, ‘Uh, yeah, that’s our dog. And she just looked at him like, ‘Yes I am.'”
The man succumbed to Pickles’ charms and took complete care of her. From cleaning his muddy paws after walks to putting on his sweaters and clothes; he even tucks her beside her pillow. Sinclair took a 180 degree turn with the gentle Chihuahua.
For his part, Pickles showed all his qualities and pleasantly surprised the family; She’s having fun playing alongside Merlin, and regardless of her size, she is quite sporty and bursting with energy.
The little girl has a huge personality and knows how to win the hearts of those who know her, and she showed how wonderful little dogs are. Sheridan recently shared on the Dogspotting Society’s Facebook group the adorable relationship between Pickles and his father that has captivated millions of people.
She said:
“Pickles has all the personality of a 100 pound dog in a 5 pound body. She makes everyone laugh because she makes really funny human facial expressions, like she knows something that you don’t know, or that she is arrogant, or that she just looks very happy.”
She is a pretty smart girl and knows how to captivate everyone’s hearts. She knows how to make love feel to everyone who knows her.
Sheridan added:
“She did the same with my father, who also doesn’t like small dogs, especially Chihuahuas. He greets his favorite people like they’re his favorite thing in the whole world and it’s hard to resist.”
The adorable Pickles is now a licensed service dog and often helps family and friends in any way they can. The little dog helped loved ones rethink little dogs.
Your dad surely thinks twice before judging the size of a dog now and is grateful to his sweet little girl.
