Chihuahua, devil dog

My dinner companion last night, Nicholas, said he wanted to buy a chihuahua, as his next dog. Here is somebody who, actually, wants one of those evil little rat dogs. I was taken aback. (It is very hard to type with a bulldog in your lap) He said that is why he likes them, the more evil the better, as far as he was concerned. He was going to call it Freddy. I can see it now, beady eyes, lesions on the brain from all that in-breeding.
