Before
you Get a Chihuahua
You
love the idea of having a Chihuahua. Chihuahuas are loyal and
will hold no grudge against you even if you make mistakes. Dogs
won’t mind if you are ugly or blind. Chihuahuas will curl up
beside you when you are sad and badly need company. In other
words, dogs live to please their master. But before you get
a Chihuahua, you must ask yourself some serious questions, be
honest about answering these questions, and do some research.
This is because getting a Chihuahua is a serious matter that
will affect the next ten to twelve years of your life.
The
first question is “are you prepared to provide the Chihuahua
all his needs?” The dog is not a piece of furniture that you
can place in one corner. It is a living creature who relies
on its master for his food, water, shelter, grooming, exercise,
training, companionship, veterinary care, and protection. Can
you afford all the expenses of having a Chihuahua? The Chihuahua
will need to visit the veterinarian. Do you have the time to
train and exercise your Chihuahua? If you jet-set all the time,
the presence of a dog may cramp your lifestyle. Is the family
prepared for the dog? One of the children may be allergic to
Chihuahua. All the answers to these questions must be carefully
thought out.
If,
after all these questions, you are still determined to get a
Chihuahua, then you should do the necessary research. The research
will be about the kind of dog that you want and need. Each breed
has their own personality and needs. The personality and breed
of the dog should match your family’s own needs, personality,
space, and limitations.
Before
you get a Chihuahua, you must determine the personality of the
breed and make sure it is right for your personality and lifestyle.
