With its big eyes, big ears, and bigger-than-life attitude, the Chihuahua is the epitome of cocky canine in a petite package.

If you are bringing a Chihuahua home, you will want to know what to expect as far as behavior how this dog will interact with you.
Check out the twelve realities new chihuahua owners must accept on the next page… and see if you can relate!
