Understanding your Chihuahua
Chihuahuas are small, Chihuahuas are cute, but before you go ahead and buy one as a pet for yourself, here are some things you need to know about Chihuahuas.
Chihuahuas are dogs that need a lot of attention and will bond strongly with their owners, therefore be prepared to spend time playing games, interacting and talking to your dog.
It is best not to keep a Chihuahua if there are young children at home as this is a dog which competes for attention and might hurt your child though their bites usually do not cause serious damage. The same goes for other pets you might have competing for your attention. In fact, you can be assured of fights at your home to be a common affair should you have other pets besides your Chihuahua
Consider a different breed of dog if you are the type who relocates on a regular basis as Chihuahuas don’t like changing their place of stay and are happy living their lives in one place. A loyal dog indeed.
Although Chihuahuas have been named as “pocket pets, teacup pets that fits in handbags” Chihuahuas don’t like to be carried around, preferring to running, walking, and playing.
Be prepared for problems from your dog if you are considering taking a Chihuahua on a trip as they do not like being confined in a carrier.
Chihuahuas can be quite aggressive if their personal space is being intruded. The dog is very territorial and are known to fight off dogs twice their size.
Keep your stuffs at least 2 feet high as Chihuahuas can be real jumpers. A Chihuahua can jump more than two feet from a standing position.
Having short hair and bony frame means Chihuahuas can get cold easily. Buy sweaters, coats or blankets to keep them warm especially if the climate is cold.
A Chihuahua is, to say the least a hyperactive dog. Keeping a Chihuahua discipline means taking note of their most common personality traits in mind when making training decisions. Before buying a Chihuahua, get to know as much about the dog’s background as possible.
