Chihuahuas have been most newsworthy this past week. First, Peter1610 blogged about a chihuahua-terrier cross being swallowed by a python and now comes news of another poor chihuahua critter being stuck up a tree.
Oh yes - with a man:

Man, chihuahua, found dangling in tree
1st March 2008, 10:00 WST
A 42-year-old man who became entangled in a tree while paragliding with his pet chihuahua east of Melbourne was rescued by emergency services after a five-hour search.
The paraglider set off on a routine flight with his chihuahua strapped to him from Donna Buang Summit Road, near Warburton, just before 3pm yesterday. But shortly after take-off the pilot became entangled in a tree and called 000 from his mobile phone.
Local police began a ground search as a police helicopter scoured the area, and they eventually made contact with the uninjured man about 6.40pm. He was dangling from a tree about 35 metres above the ground near Don Gap.
I am far too easily amused...
