5/14 we celebrate one of the most beloved dog breeds in the world - the Chihuahua✨✨
These tiny but mighty pups are known for their big personalities, loyalty, and affectionate nature.
Let's learn a little more about Chihuahuas together!
🔹 The smallest dog breed in the world
They weigh only two pounds and rarely exceed six pounds. Due to their small size, even minor impacts make them prone to fractures and dislocation of kneecaps.
🔹 Excellent companion dogs
They enjoy being attentive and loyal to their owners, and can be trained to follow simple commands. However, it's important to avoid excessive exercise that could put strain on their delicate bones.
🔹 Timid and anxious
When your Chihuahua is still a puppy, you can expose them to different environments and introduce them to other dogs and people to help with socialization and reduce anxiety.
