I would like to get to know a wawa some day. I have no direct experience with one and find myself intrigued.
Best little dogs. All the fun of a dog in a size smaller than a cat. Easy. Loyal. Snuggly. Funny. Etc.
As a new mommy to a wawa, I must say they never intrigued me. Every one I had ever encountered was a yappy little (insert a bad word here). Then suddenly I got one from a relative who couldn’t keep her. She is yappy, but it was mostly about lack of training, and lack of confidence. She barks at what she is scared of (basically everything). She is improving, with lots of “Sophie, quiet” and praise when she does get quiet. She is adorable, and cuddly, and cold all the time. She loves to play, and knows I am there to protect her from all the scary things. I wouldn’t pay a nickel for another one, but I wouldn’t take a million dollars for this one (my mother used to say that about us kids).
I always thought they were cute, but I never really wanted one until I had Pablo (he was my ex’s dog and was three when I met him). Now I want another one, but I want one with Pablo’s temperament, which is probably hard to find.
My doggie is half wawa. She’s very territorial and barky but also very loyal and loving. And just really adorable. The other half is Yorkie.
Pablo was very quiet. He barked so rarely that when he did he always looked as surprised as the rest of us.
My sweetheart is the total opposite. Every suspicious sound must be challenged. Especially the sound of children happily playing outside.
Pablo wasn’t bothered by other animals unless they got too close. He was fine with people (my ex used to bring him anywhere he could and hand him off to anyone who wanted to hold him when he was a puppy, so he was used to people. He had his favorites, but if you had to get up and transfer him to another lap, he was generally fine with that).
He sounds like a prince.
He was the best.
This doggie’s hair reminds me of a woman I used to work with. Looong silver hair always up in a bun. I never knew how long it was until she dressed as a witch for Halloween one year. 🙂
This was a gut buster! Not sure the Gibson Girl look is right for this pooch – I mean, who’s wearing whom??? As my Great Aunt Alice used to say, “Looks like a piss ant under a sunflower” – a comment usually reserved for someone wearing an oversized hat, but works well here, too, I think. I do not know what a piss ant is – I will have to look it up.
Disclaimer: I do not believe that this darling little dog is inconsequential as the definition given here seems to suggest.

I never heard that expression before so I had to look it up, I didn’t find it but I found pissant.

My Aunt was probably born around 1895, so the expression is long out of date.
I don’t know…I think it’s what part of the country you’re in. The term “pissant” is quite familiar to me and I have heard it used frequently. My sister and I often use it as a somewhat-more-acceptable term than “jack___”. Never knew it had anything to do with actual ants!
I mean the part about the hat – I think that’s old. My Aunt was born and raised in North Philadelphia – don’t know if there were a lot of pissants around there.
Wawa doesn’t sell hair products! (A few people will get this. We’ve talked about Wawa before. I’m starting to sound a bit obsessed, I know.)
I suppose you could buy a comb there, at least. 😉
They do sell some stuff. I got a travel-size toothpaste there for my trip last weekend. I think they had shampoo.. 😉
I haven’t been to a Wawa in at least 20 years, but I do remember it having a little bit of everything, so probably yes for hair products, but no for actual Chihuahuas. If they had actual Chihuahuas I would have never graduated from college because I would have just camped out in my corner convenience store.
They have really good coffee and lots of other goodies.
Prob. the best convenience store going. Their parking
lot is always full and the store always bouncing with
people. “Wawa” is the Lenni Lenape word for the Canada
goose, mimicking its call. The goose is the store’s logo.

I did not know that!
We have two within less than a half mile of each other. They are very popular. “WaWa, the place so nice they named it twice”.
Wawas are the best. A timely tip, since they only have it around this time of the year: Their eggnog is To. Die. For.
lol… thought you mean the dogs. I thought, “Hey, Pablo never made me eggnog!” (That’s okay, I don’t actually like eggnog.)
HA! Yeah, I’m much more obsessed with Wawa dairy products–their ice cream is really great, too–than I am with dogs.
Don’t know that I’ve ever had their ice cream…
I mostly go there for gas (because they charge the same price for cash and credit, unlike most places around here).
Last year I hit a deer and after I got my car fixed the body shop sent me an email saying I would get a gift card if I posted a google review. They didn’t say what kind of gift card; turned out to be $20 for Wawa. 🙂
And, at least here, they have generic cash machines with no additional fee.
I used to get cash at Wawa once a week on my way to work (the last place I worked); I believe they were PNC machines, but they didn’t charge (my bank is TD). But then I got a letter from TD informing me that they would start charging for using other ATMs, so now I only use TD machines (though now I pass a TD branch on my way to work and Wawa is a slight detour, so TD is easier, anyway).
What exactly IS Wawa?
It’s a convenience store/gas station (but not all locations sell gas).
It’s an East Coast thing. 🙂
Darn. Sounds like a good place to have around!
Grey, blue grey, silver, salt and pepper are all stylish now. That’s what the baby boomers are pushing now.
Adorable grandma chiwawa.
This is for all the Wawa fans out in Cutetropolis land.
omg the waggy tail!
The video said it was a “tiny chihuahua food fight” which I thought meant it would be small dogs fighting over food, but it appears to be just one small dog fighting her own food.
The dog’s name is Kiwi and she is part of the “Cheeky Chis” clan on Instagram.
Okay, Murray C…. You do realize I had to watch 10 other videos of wawas while I was there, right? I am supposed to be _working_! [arms crossed, eyebrows raised, foot tapping] 😉
Oh, 6 Rabbits, I’m SOO-O-O sorry to have put you through such torment.?
*snerk* yeah, it was torture wanting to kiss all those little smooth foreheads and not being able to!?
I’m surprised Gramma Wawa’s Old-Fashioned Hair Styling Gel doesn’t also come in lavender and window-picture-sun-faded pink.
