Small and fragile but alert and bold, these dogs are the world's smallest breed. They are named after the Mexican state from which it was first exported. One undisputed fact is that Chihuahuas are the ultimate toy lap dogs. Both the short haired and more temperature resistant long haired variety offer humor, comfort and companionship. Their coats come in many colors from white to black/tan and many colors in between. Grooming is minimal for the short coats and more frequently for the long coats. These dogs weigh 2 to 6 lbs. and stand 6-9" at the shoulders. Contact the dog breeders below for your next family friend.
