Chihuahua Pup

A Chihuahua pup is a very small creature that needs much attention and special care. The Chihuahua is one of the smallest and most famous dogs in the world. Its size makes it suited for the role of a lap dog and a family companion for city dwellers. Though small, Chihuahua dogs are very protective of their owners and can serve as watchdogs. They are intelligent, affectionate, funny, and have a sense of humor that makes them good therapy dogs for the disabled. Adult Chihuahuas do well with children and elderly, have moderate exercise needs, and don’t need much care.

To have a devoted and loving companion, most people prefer buying a Chihuahua pup and training it by themselves. It is a great commitment of time and efforts and requires dog training experience and patience, but it results in forming close bonds between the dog and the owner. If you buy an adult dog that has already been given socialization and basic training, the dog will need time to adapt to the new family. It can be a good way out for those who have never trained dogs and have no time or desire to deal with a puppy.

Chihuahua puppies are usually sold at the age of 8-10 weeks. Often, Chihuahua bitches have difficulties with giving birth. Some of them are unable to feed the pups. It’s the breeder who has to take care of the puppies. Breeders usually invest much in raising Chihuahua puppies. That’s why a purebred Chihuahua pup from a responsible and devoted breeder cannot be cheap. Buying a puppy from a specialist you get a quality stable dog free from genetic health disorders.

Each Chihuahua is individual. The personality and temperament of the dog form during the first few weeks of its life. Responsible breeders keep their puppies in spacious enclosures and socialize them around various people and dogs. In good kennels, all puppies are kept as family members and get much love and attention from the breeder. Such dogs grow up easy-going and communicative and will not face problems with adapting to the new family. No matter for which purpose you are buying a Chihuahua pup, choose a responsible and experienced breeder.
