Meet a new friend chiwewe

A very cute chiwewe at the house of my friend. When i take him a picture he never move in the chair.

Do you know the main reason that most dogs bite? Most people assume it’s just because the dog is mean, but in reality most dogs (and this includes Chihuahuas) bite is out of fear. Of course some dogs suffer abuse or just plain neglect, and this can be a cause.

Mainly though, aggression develops as a results from lack of socialization. Dogs need socialization before the age of 3 months and they need this into adulthood and for the rest of their lives. This means contact with other people and other dogs. Many dogs don’t get this type of interaction – and when they meet up with another dog or person…you have a problem.

Now take the need for socialization and transfer that to so many households who adopt or rescue young Chihuahuas out of good intent – but for many reasons the dogs don’t get socialized. And within days these dogs quickly get used to their adoptive families – and mostly ONLY their adoptive families. They develop their pack patterns and day to day routines around the people and pets they see daily. This means that anyone else who comes into the house, or onto the front porch, or who happens to be a dog park is a problem waiting to happen.

Love your dog
