Chihuahua is a tiny dog breed, originally from Mexico, known for its big eyes, erect ears and a soft or wiry coat. Though small, they are known to be fiercely loyal, intelligent, and energetic. Their small size makes them ideal for apartment living or homes with small yards. They come in many different colors, and can live long lives of up to 18 years. Chihuahuas require minimal grooming and are great companions for adults.
