Having A Chihuahua Dog

Article Title: Having A Chihuahua Dog
Author: Sandra A Dean

Individuals must know what to expect from Chihuahua dogs before
they bring them home. Although they are the smallest breed of
dog, they still needs lots of space to run and play. Individuals
wanting a personable dog should choose Chihuahua dogs as they
greatly enjoy being around people and other Chihuahuas.
Chihuahua dogs are very possessive of the individuals who
primarily care for them, which is why it is important for people
to understand their traits and behaviors before adopting or
buying them.

Due to limited living spaces many individuals choose to adopt
Chihuahua dogs and make them their pet. These animals are the
smallest breed of dog in the world, and many individuals assume
they don't need much space to live. This is not true though, and
this emphasizes why it is so important for individuals to gather
lots of Chihuahua information and learn what to expect before
bring a Chihuahua home.

Although Chihuahuas are very small they actually need quite a
bit of space when they want to run and play. In fact many
experts recommend that you provide your Chihuahua with a
fenced-in backyard that allows them to run around freely. If you
live in an apartment or condo where this isn't possible, you can
still provide your Chihuahua with room to run around by taking
them outside on an extended leash. This allows them to run
around fairly unrestrained while you still maintain control of
them.

Chihuahuas are also dogs that enjoy being around people. They
are highly interactive and get lonely rather quickly, thus it
may be best for you to place your Chihuahua in doggy daycare if
you are away at work all day.

Chihuahuas also enjoy being around other dogs, so it may be
advisable for you to purchase another Chihuahua to keep the
first pet company. Having two Chihuahuas together can provide
some relief if the dogs are left alone all day while you are at
work if you choose not to put them in doggy daycare. Due to the
fact Chihuahua dogs enjoy being around other dogs, you should
have your pet fixed as soon as possible. They are the smallest
breed of dog, which makes them very vulnerable to attach if they
get out when they are in heat. Dogs that want to be left alone
will have no problem providing serious injury or death to your
Chihuahua.

One thing that many individuals and families don't expect with
Chihuahua dogs is their possessive nature. Chihuahuas have the
ability to develop a special bond with people they are
frequently around such as their owners or caregivers. They often
bark, growl, snip at, bite or attack individuals that appear to
be invading their space and their bond. This is why Chihuahuas
will even attack fellow family members that live in the same
house. Before you purchase or adopt a Chihuahua it is important
you are fully knowledgeable and aware of their possessive
behavior since it is one of the main reasons individuals get rid
of them after only having them for a few months.

Even though they may be possessive, Chihuahuas can make great
pets for individuals and families. They have a lot of desirable
qualities and are quite intelligent. However, you should become
fully knowledgeable about Chihuahuas and know what to expect
before you bring one home.
