Diva is a 13-year-old white Chihuahua with ginger markings.
“She’s a diva who enjoys the good life, but is sweet like a baby,” Laura Herrera said about the pet her husband Wilman Alvarez brought home when she was a puppy.
Diva is friendly to all, and will go anywhere: To ride a boogie board at the beach, on airplanes, for car rides and to restaurants around town.
“She’s lived with us in El Salvador, Guatemala, Virginia, Puerto Rico and now Florida,” Herrera said. The couple have relocated for Alvarez’s job as a credit card executive.
“We love Miami Lakes,” she said. “The area is very green. It’s an oasis in the middle of the city. Miami Lakes is very pet-friendly.”
Diva has innumerable ensembles -- bright pullovers, tutus and sweaters with holiday themes.
“She has more clothes than me,” Herrera said about the 5-pound girl.
Diva has given birth to six daughters who live nearby and she gets to visit them and her grand puppies, Herrera said.
