Owning a Chihuahua can be quite an adventure, as I'm sure most owners of this breed can attest to.

On one hand you've got this cute little dog that everyone wants to hold and pet. On the other hand, if you're a stranger, you'll be lucky to have four fingers left when you try, because it might just bite one off. This is because of the Chihuahuas extreme loyalty to those he's familiar with, and his not appreciating what he feels might be an infringement of his territory.

Chihuahuas can also be an adventure to own simply by virtue of their attitudes. Hang around one for any length of time and you'll notice that this little dog doesn't seem to know that it's little! Because of this, they're often referred to as the little dog, with the big dog attitude. They can be aggressive toward other pets, and can bark up a storm over the littlest thing, which in most cases is bigger than the actual dog itself.

Even though the above mentioned characteristics can be interesting to say the least, more endearing qualities are those of the Chihuahuas extreme loyalty to those he's familiar with. Also, this puppy has a high energy level and spunk, that can brighten anyone's day.
