chihuahuahs are not hairless. They can be but most are not. I have a Chih/Rat Terrier and she is very quiet and nice and sweet. She is a normal sized Chih. she will let anyone pet her and only barks to alert that someone is here or in play. My other Chih. is a full Chih. She is a teacup Chih. and she is the meanest little thing to strangers and the other dogs. She gets along with the other dogs for the most part, except feeding time. She will get downright vicious. Which is normal for Chihs. They learn to recognize who is family and who is not and they have incredible memory too. They are extremely loving to their family but, depending on the dog, they can be downright mean and vicious to others. Plus, some of them are really really cute.

Having a trained dog isn’t the same as having a balanced dog, but if your dog knows a few basic commands, it can be helpful when tackling problem behaviors — existing ones or those that may develop in the future. Learn here https://tr.im/byqI8
So where do you start with dog obedience training? You could take a class, but it’s not necessary; you can do it yourself. In fact, with the right attitude, it can be fun for both you and your dog!
Step 1 : Sit
This is one of the easiest dog obedience commands to teach, so it’s a good one to start with.
• Hold a treat close to your dog’s nose.
• Move your hand up, allowing his head to follow the treat and causing his bottom to lower.
• Once he’s in sitting position, say “Sit,” give him the treat, and share affection.
Repeat this sequence a few times every day until your dog has it mastered. Then ask your dog to sit before mealtime, when leaving for walks, and during other situations where you’d like him calm and seated.
Step 2 : Come
This command can help keep a dog out of trouble, bringing him back to you if you lose grip on the leash or accidentally leave the front door open.
• Put a leash and collar on your dog.
• Go down to his level and say, “Come,” while gently pulling on the leash.
• When he gets to you, reward him with affection and a treat.
Once he’s mastered it with the leash, remove it — and practice the command in a safe, enclosed area.
Step 3 : Down
This can be one of the more difficult commands in dog obedience training. Why? Because the position is a submissive posture. You can help by keeping training positive and relaxed, particularly with fearful or anxious dogs.
• Find a particularly good smelling treat, and hold it in your closed fist.
• Hold your hand up to your dog’s snout. When he sniffs it, move your hand to the floor, so he follows.
• Then slide your hand along the ground in front of him to encourage his body to follow his head.
• Once he’s in the down position, say “Down,” give him the treat, and share affection.
Repeat it every day. If your dog tries to sit up or lunges toward your hand, say “No” and take your hand away. Don’t push him into a down position, and encourage every step your dog takes toward the right position. After all, he’s working hard to figure it out!

they are cute little lap dogs and easily fit into anyones lifestyle. Being a dog they can be left home while you work, if you live in an apt. they are small enough to get plenty of exercise without haveing to take it to a park everyday. if you want a dog to take places with you they are great because they are small enough to not be obnoxious anywhere you want to go
