These dogs have short hair and often look bald. Chihuahuas are short, warm dogs that are amongst the oldest breeds of dogs that existed in America. These dogs have deer type heads and long noses, which are their visual characteristics.
A mini Chihuahua weights just around one or two pounds and is gaining even more popularity since celebrities started carrying them around in their bags, making style statements. You cannot tell whether your dog is a mini Chihuahua or not until it is at least ten weeks old. So, do not consider a few weeks old dog as the one that celebrities carry. The reason that celebrities often dress their dogs is because of the lack of hair on their body. Especially, in winters, you will need to dress your dog in a coat/jacket and prepare a bed that has blankets.
The reason these dogs do not do well in winters is because they were first founded in Sunny Mexico. The name Chihuahua comes from the native state of Mexico as well. A Chihuahua is anxious by nature and can even be harsh. Training such a dog may be a little difficult because of their inconsistent nature.
These dogs are easily spoiled if treated kindly and not disciplined. Because of its sleek body, a Chihuahua can easily speed out of sight after being mischievous without the owner even having time to react. If you live in a small apartment, this dog is perfect as a companion for you except for the fact that at times, it requires its own space and with the owner intruding, you might have to face a dog’s tantrum!

The dog is now a style statement as well and if you do not want to brush it everyday then, brushing its hair at least twice a week to give a neat look is necessary. In addition, because of its small size, it is prone to health problems that are related to bone and joints diseases, heart conditions, bladder stones etc. Playing constantly with this dog in a harsh way you expect a stronger dog to play with you may be harmful for a Chihuahua. You can seriously injure your dogs back if you treat it harshly as this dog is so little. Therefore, keeping it for children’s entertainment is not something to opt for.
The life of a mini Chihuahua goes up to a period of sixteen years and if you want a cute companion by your side for all these years, you should most definitely adopt this breed of a dog. You can have fun with it by dressing it up with the cutest clothes available, make statements, and show everyone, a Chihuahua can be your best friend as well. The key aspect to keep in mind is to have patience during the training week of this dog and viola! You have yourself the perfect companion.
