Chihuahua

Dogs of this breed are considered the smallest in the world. These small, charming creatures have a somewhat unusual appearance. Very large ears and unusual facial expressions almost immediately fascinate people around. Despite their small size, chihuahuas have extraordinary courage.

It is important to remember that even such a decorative dog needs to be trained. The breed features are intelligence, and independence, the ability to quickly navigate in any situation. A pet should know its place and not overstep the boundaries of what is allowed. Excessive gentleness to the animal will lead to the fact that the dog will become completely uncontrollable.

Chihuahuas are indoor dogs, but despite this, they are happy to go for walks with their owner. The duration of the promenades should not be very long, because the pet can get tired quickly. These animals have an extraordinary sensitivity to weather conditions. The small size of the dog allows it to keep warm with great difficulty. Therefore, rains or cold weather are not well tolerated by Chihuahuas.

In sunny weather, you need to pay attention to your dog. The hot rays of the sun can lead to burns of unprotected areas of the skin. If the chihuahua has to stay outside for a long time, which cannot be avoided, then you need to take care of purchasing a special sun cream. You can not allow the cream to be licked by animals, this will lead to poisoning. Distract the dog with some delicacy.

During walks, you need to follow simple rules on which the safety of your pet depends. It is not recommended to let them off the leash on a street with a large crowd of people, or near a highway with busy traffic. Meeting with large siblings can lead to chihuahua injuries, even if a large relative just wants to play. He will cause harm simply by negligence.

An unusual feature of the breed is trembling attacks. Most often they occur due to excitement, cold, or fright. Being small creatures, dogs have fast metabolic processes, their amplification can often provoke trembling. If the attack lasts long enough, while the animal becomes sluggish, the coat loses its shine, symptoms of the disease appear – you need to urgently consult a veterinarian.

Several feeding options are suitable for Chihuahuas: dry food, special canned food for dogs and natural food. Lucky Jet
