#19 Is the Chihuahua right for me?
If you want to buy a Chihuahua, you should ask yourself the following questions:
Do I really have enough time for the little Mexican?
do I have enough money The Chi needs insurance and has to be registered, the regular deworming and vaccinations have to be paid for, in an emergency, it should not fail with a life-saving operation. Feed and equipment are part of the daily expenses. Chihuahuas from torture breeding in particular can cause high veterinary costs.
Am I willing to seek help if I have problems?
Can I take the Chihuahua's urge to move into account and are there people in my immediate vicinity who may be able to help me?
Do I settle for a confident little house bully?
How will the children react and the partner?
Of course, when buying a dog, heart and mind must decide. If it's just the mind, it probably won't be the Chihuahua. Not because he's not a good dog, but there are a number of other dogs that are easier to handle. But the Chi opens your heart and you will see that your arguments against him are "all of a sudden" in line with your heart.
