A puppy class can do wonders for a Chihuahua puppy’s socialization. There are even often extra small dog groups in the schools, where the participants are all from very small to small breeds.
Here the puppies can wrestle, play and learn at eye level and the owners do not have to worry so much. Finally, accidental injuries are far more likely when the Chihuahua is playing with a much larger breed puppy. Even if both puppies are the same age.
If the Chihuahua has been successfully accustomed to smaller dogs, it can also be brought together with large (but please calm and friendly) four-legged friends.
On the other hand, it would be completely wrong to constantly tease the Chi when it comes to a dog encounter. The Chihuahua is quite self-confident and knows how to assert itself. Therefore, only pick him up if there is actually a danger and the other dog has a bad attitude towards you, for example.
