Information on the Chihuahua PDF Print E-mail The world's smallest breed of dog is the Chihuahua. It is a mystery of how this little but forceful breed of dog originated. Many experts have suggested that the Chihuahua came to America with the Spanish armies of Hernando Corte around the year 1519. Other experts believe that the Chihuahua has been around since the ninth century. These experts believe that the Chihuahua was bred by the Toltecs of Mexico. This type of dog received its name from the state of Chihuahua in Mexico. The Chihuahua only reaches a height of six inches and weighs a maximum of two to six pounds. The most valued Chihuahuas weigh just a little over two pounds. A Chihuahua has many different colors in their coats. These colors include: black, white, tan, spotted, blue, silver and chocolate. A Chihuahua can also be tricolored with three or more markings present in their coat. The Chihuahua has a long and soft coat that has a slight curl to the ends. The American Kennel Club recognizes two different varieties of Chihuahuas. These two varieties are the long-coat and the smooth-coat Chihuahua. Many smooth-coat Chihuahuas have very thin hair. A Chihuahua requires very little grooming. One important thing to know before purchasing a Chihuahua is that this type of dog is not good around children or with other pets. This type of dog makes a great companion to an adult and is best kept indoors. The Chihuahua is considered to be a toy breed. The life expectancy of the Chihuahua is around fourteen years. Some Chihuahuas are affected by genetic disorders that cause epilepsy and seizures. This does not occur in most Chihuahuas though.
