Wow, I'm just racking up the Niece Points™ this week.
Yesterday, my aunt happened to open the newspaper and see a picture of a woman holding a (different) chihuahua on Saturday (we found the dog Friday), and she was absolutely adamant that I track this poor lady down and ask if she knows anyone who lost a chihuahua. Then she chewed me out for posting a Cragslist ad, because it's "useless". (It is also apparently my fault that the local paper is having issues and could not take my ad.) Just now, she called telling me to hand out the house number (rather than my email, office number and cellphone number, because she wants to control everything. Also, I'm to invite anyone who claims the dog to come out to our home so we can "see them interact". Because inviting total strangers out to our place in the middle of nowhere, rather than meeting in a public location in the city, is a good idea.
TL;DR, I may have hung up on my aunt twice in the past two days, and am now ignoring her calls.
Oh, by the way, that "useless" Craigslist ad may have already worked. I placed it yesterday afternoon, and I got an email asking after a dog that fits the description.

Finally, I won an internet. Again. :D For On Top Of This Upside-Down World. I cheated. It's expected.
