She loves to snuggle and get all the pets. just lying beside her human or dog sister makes her happy. She jumps like a bunny you if you don't give her attention. She is smart and has the cutest little face. We love her so much and she returns that love tenfold. She has some of the typical Chi traitsher tiny body is actually the size of a lion in her mind and she is brave and fearless. She does not bark unnecessarily at all. She plays with her canine sister, who is 50 times her size, with abandon. Leash training is good but can improve, she tends to get a sidetracked and squirrel.oh yeah, we are walking. She loves playing outside and play chase with her sister. Often, she will be the instigator of playtime inside and out and just loves to play fight and sprint around. Even though we had very cold weather for this little one to adapt to, she went outside and still ran around to play. We do not know how she would be with cats or kids, but I believe she may be good. Proper introduction to all animals is always a must but we have not seen any prey drive. She is very petit though so with smaller children there is the chance she may nip if handled too roughly. She definitely would love and get along with another dog as she is so playful. She is always on the lookout for something to eat and has a very healthy appetite. She sleeps in a crate at night, snuggled in her soft blankets and she has no issue doing this. I have also left her in the crate for short periods of time with no barking or crying. She also comes to the office with me and has done well on the car rides as well as being good in my office. House training is good, she has used pee pads successfully and always goes when I take her outside. We are working on this daily as there has been a few minor accidents which as her guardian, is my fault. Whomever adopts this sweet girl will be so lucky!

Overview:
The Chihuahua, a captivating breed known for its diminutive size, boasts an ancient and somewhat mysterious origin, with most theories pointing to Mexico as its birthplace, potentially descending from the "Techichi," a small companion dog of the Toltec civilization. Physically, they are easily recognizable by their small, compact bodies, large expressive eyes, and erect ears, appearing in both smooth and long-coated varieties, showcasing a vast array of colors and markings. Despite their tiny stature, Chihuahuas possess a big personality; they are often described as spirited, alert, and fiercely loyal to their owners, sometimes displaying a bold and confident demeanor. While their small size makes them exceptionally well-suited for apartment living, they thrive in homes where they receive ample attention and mental stimulation. They can be good family pets for older children who understand how to interact gently with a small dog, but their delicate build makes them less suitable for boisterous toddlers. Regarding health, Chihuahuas can be prone to certain conditions like patellar luxation, heart problems, and dental issues, making regular veterinary check-ups crucial for their well-being.
