The Lore of Prince the Chihuahua

Prince was born in 2017 and was found alongside his blonde doggy mother at PetSmart. Though Prince’s mother looks like a typical chihuahua, Prince seems as if he has another mix of species in him. Some speculate Prince’s ancestors come from Chihuahua warrior descent, as seen in the fan favorite children's movie, “Beverly Hills Chihuahua.” This also alludes to the possibility of this small creature originating from a lab due to his appearance. Prince was not named after the world-famous singer, but instead the humble prince from any number of fairy tales.
When Prince was taken home with his owner, he was quite timid and skinny. It took time to adapt to his surroundings, though his playful personality shone through.
Whilst it may not seem obvious at first glance, Prince was and still is very picky with his food and hates clothes. The little being will only eat certain foods. When not given his way, he is not opposed to crying and allowing his black orbs to fill with tears, which gives him the appearance of a seal. He enjoys short walks, and in his old age, he especially enjoys his bed and his space under the coffee table. He is a diva and will not come to you unless he feels like it; otherwise, you must go to him to greet him. He does not enjoy other dogs, and it is theorized that he may be an introvert or have a bit of social anxiety.
However, these factors do not contribute to Prince’s popularity. Prince gained his fame from his shape. Some may describe him as fat, round, with no neck, or a glutton. While some words may have some veracity, Prince is a food connoisseur or a snob, and would rather starve than eat other foods. As previously mentioned, he is a diva who will get what he wants. Some even argue that he is too fat and is suffering, but knowing him, his owner can confirm that Prince lives more like a king than a prince.
Prince is a simple dog who leaves little to write about. Despite this, Prince is now a microcelebrity for those who enjoy his presence during UPHS Pet Day or are concerned with the personal life of his owner. As he turns nine this year, Prince’s fur on his face transforms from black to white, yet even in his old age, he will continue unknowingly remaining an object of affection in the hearts of many.
