Nega
Značaj
Devoted, alert and spirited, often wary of strangers. Some are bossy with other dogs if not socialised early.
Gibanje
Short walks and indoor play are enough, though many enjoy more activity and even agility.
Nega dlake
Smooth coats need a weekly brush; long coats need brushing a couple of times a week. Daily tooth care is important.
Šolanje
Clever and capable of learning a lot; use positive methods, early socialisation and patience with house training.
Zdravje
Patellar luxation, heart valve disease, dental crowding, tracheal collapse and hydrocephalus occur, and many keep a soft spot on the skull. Ask the breeder for knee, heart and eye results.

O pasmi
The Chihuahua is named after the Mexican state where it was found by American visitors in the nineteenth century. It is widely believed to descend from the Techichi, a small dog kept by the Toltec and Aztec peoples, though the exact history is uncertain.
Chihuahuas are confident, loyal and very attached to their owners, often choosing one favourite person. They are alert little watchdogs and can be suspicious of strangers and other dogs. Their tiny size makes them easy to carry and house, but it also means they can be injured by falls or rough play. They feel the cold and appreciate a coat in winter.
Ste vedeli?
Many Chihuahuas keep a molera, a soft spot on the top of the skull similar to a baby's fontanelle.
