The chihuahua and the rottweiler

Tweet

Some of you may not like this song if you listen to it but it’s just meant to be a bit of fun. It's called Little Gomez and was on the list at Eric Bogle’s concert which we attended on Wednesday evening. Eric said it was based on a true story which I managed to verify with some research. I’m not positive of the year but I think it was 1995 when a chihuahua named Rocky achieved a certain amount of fame and admiration in Key Largo, Florida, by managing to mate with a Rottweiler, Canella, which would have been at least twice his size. A local animal control officer witnessed the event as did Canella’s owner who grabbed his camera and took photos. The two were unable to break up the pair immediately and later it was discovered that Canella was indeed pregnant. The pregnancy was terminated. As Canella’s owner had been hoping for some saleable puppies, he sued Rocky’s owner and won the case. It’s a tasteless and tacky song as Eric himself acknowledged, but I laughed. For what it’s worth, here it is.
