Her job description for you includes: • Providing snacks on demand (she is a serious foodie) • Delivering affection only when she requests it • Respecting her personal space when she is feeling spicy • Understanding that treats are the only acceptable negotiation tactic Let’s be clear about house rules: No kids No other pets (competition for attention will not be tolerated) spicyChihuahua-savvy humans only Patience required to help her slowly dial down the spice level She was recently spayed and had a hernia repaired. She does have another very small hernia that wasn’t repaired due to its size and may need attention in the future.

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.
