Her name was Gidget. To the world, she was the Taco Bell dog. This is the extraordinary story of an irresistible pup's life, and that of her devoted trainer, Sue Chipperton. It is not only the story of an adorable television star, but also that of Sue's successful training techniques, and her fascinating stories of working with both human and animal stars, like Mooni, Gidget's Chihuahua roommate and the eventual star of Legally Blonde. Sue shares her delightful tales, investing humor, warmth, and rare insight into one of the freshest and most fun Hollywood success stories ever told.

The book is primarily about Gidget - the little Chihuahua that went on to become The Taco Bell Dog - a pop culture icon in the United States in the late 90's.
Following her time line from the day I got her from a local breeder until the sad day when she passed away, it also features stories about my life as animal trainer working in Hollywood on commercial, television and film sets.
