Är Chihuahua vakthund?
Chihuahuan avlades fram som vakthund i Mexiko på 1800-talet, vilket gör att den är snabb att högljutt försvara sitt hem när utomstående närmar sig. Den kan också skälla av andra anledningar, till exempel om den är uttråkad, stressad eller känner sig ensam.
Hur är det att ha en Chihuahua?
Små barn, som kräver lika mycket uppmärksamhet som de själva, hör dock inte till favoriterna. Chihuahuan trivs bäst med barn över ungefär sex år. För att få ett harmoniskt liv tillsammans med dessa små energiknippen krävs att hunden socialiseras och uppfostras konsekvent redan från början.
