We’re guessing that when Chiquita was rescued seven years ago, she had no idea that she’d be dancing into a wonderful, new life in Boston! While her talents are many, none is more impressive than the ability to balance on two legs while her adoring fans applaud.

Yes, some dance for fame, others for money…

… but there’s no greater motivator than the almighty, treat! Chiquita has learned that if she dances, gives paw, and then a hand kiss, a special goody will follow.

Now, this is not to say that dancing is her entire life. This nine year old walks two-plus miles a day – some with her person, other times with her dog walker and his furry friends.

Chiquita enjoys saying hello to everyone she meets and always appreciates a good pat and scratch, if you have the time.

Once she’s danced and had a nibble or two, it’s time to relax and watch the world go by. Chiquita, you’re our kind of Sunday Dog!
