Bear was my favorite. He was so sweet, and weirdly smart. He lived for 16 years. Really miss him. #chihuahua #chihuahuas #dog #dogs #cute

In the 2000s my family bred chihuahuas as a side business. We had 15 at one point. Here are a few. Alt text has their names. #chihuahua #chihuahuas #dog #dogs #cute

Climate stall duty at Merri Food Hub in Fawkner today.

We met 13 yo Charlie who ignored us and we ignored him. But we also met some cute hooman puppies who gave us pats while Dad had a few climate conversations about the climate crisis, waste to energy, industrial agriculture reliance on fossil fuel based fertiliser, what Council is doing.

Also on Labor approving 28 new coal and gas projects in the last 3 years, how that over half the gas exported from Australia there is no royalties paid, in fact we give $billions to foreign owned companies to export this gas which they make many billions in profit. What a scam which succeeding Labor and Coalition Governmdnts have failed to address.

“We had a good time while Dad bought some fruit and veggies. Mmm … we wouldn’t mind a carrot 🥕stick to chew on.” - Juliet and Indiana Jones 🐶🐶

It features a huge mural - ‘Always’ - by Gamilaroi artist Riko Rennie.

We attended the rally for Palestine in #Melbourne. It was large, loud and vocal against Israel breaking the ceasefire and committing acts of genocide.
There can be no climate justice until we recognise human rights and stop acts of genocide.
We weren’t the only chihuahuas present.

We were at the #Willsvotes election launch in the Brunswick Town Hall organised by 350Australia a week ago..

We are already directly engaging humans to #VoteClimate , for all our sakes.

Not volunteering for phone banking as humans wouldn't understand our woofing pleas. Except maybe Dr Doolittle and our Dad.

We are here at the 350 Climate campaign launch at Brunswick Town Hall for the electorate of Wills held by Labor MP Peter Khalil.

“We are here for #Chihuahuasforclimateaction . Some one has to represent other species and all the companion animals feeling the heat of climate change.”

“Honestly the footpaths in summer are getting too hot for walkies!!

“We need #nomorecoal #nonewgas #nonukes and end #FossilFuel subsidies, as well as more renewables as part of the #energytransition.

We hope we smell like flowers🌻 because Dad gave us a bath, and then put on some henna mud on our fur before washing it off, to turn us into caramelised chihuahuas… At least we now all have matching hair/fur. 🐶🐶🌻

We have a message for Labor: stop approving new #coal projects fueling more intense #wildfires. Like the Grampians national park 🔥 that has so far scorched more than 74,000 hectares (183,000 acres) of bushland, roughly the size of Singapore. Fire perimeter spans more than 360km. Over 600 firefighters deployed. #ClimateCrisis
