Meet Cheeks
Cheeks is a joyful little firecracker and one of the happiest dogs in our program. A daughter of GCh. Ch. A & A's Set It to Wumbo, CGC, THDN, MAD, ESA (Patrick) and half-sister to Wanda, she carries the same charm and ring presence that runs so strongly through her family.
She has nearly finished her Grand, already proving she loves the spotlight as much as we love watching her shine. Fun, animated, and endlessly cheerful, Cheeks brings her signature wiggle and big personality everywhere she goes.
Cheeks will have her first litter in 2026, beginning her contribution to the program in the whelping box just as she has in the show ring. We have high hopes for her future, both in the ring and as a young dam, as she continues the legacy of her exceptional pedigree.
"I'm Livin' Like Larry!"
Cheeks's registered name keeps the family theme alive. Her sire is "Set It to Wumbo" after Patrick Star — and Cheeks follows the SpongeBob universe right into "Livin' Like Larry", the catchphrase for Larry the Lobster: muscular, beach-loving, perpetually thrilled to be alive.
Her call name doubles up. "Cheeks" — for the round, full chipmunk cheeks Chihuahuas are known for, and for the unbothered joy of a dog who is genuinely livin' it up wherever she happens to be. Same Bikini Bottom, same shameless optimism, next generation.
About Cheeks's full health panel. Cheeks is cleared across all four major Chihuahua disease tests via Embark (DM, NCL, PRA-prcd, IVDD), plus her full OFA Patellas, CERF, and OFA Heart. This is the same testing battery we put every dog in our program through, and it is the standard we expect from any future pairing.
