Sorry it's kinda long. I ramble a lot.
Yeah that is what I'm afraid of doing. He runs not walks and zig zags the
whole time. I'm afraid any correction would hurt him even trying to keep him
close to me like Ceasar says. I thought about a harness but haven't gotten one
yet. He is so small that I don't think places like WalMart carries them. I'll
check out Petsmart this week.
So far he gets along well with me. Him and my husbad had a rough start. My
husband put him in one of the little kennels we have so he could go to the
bathroom because we didn't have a leash or collar for him yet and when my
husband went to get him he ran and nipped at him. I understand that he was
scared and he hasn't done it since.. He's bonding to us nicely.
Most chis I've been around are neurotic is there a way to tell now instead of
later. I have two dobermans who are both very high stung neurotic dogs. I
want a nice mellow inside dog. So far he seems that way but every once in
ahile he'll run around. I wasn't planning on a chi for an inside dog but he
needed a home and my husband brought him home for me.
Do chis get along well with kids? I'm expecting my first baby in Dec. Got
any suggestions?

acquired a Chihuahua. I've never
owned a small dog my entire life. I currently have 6 dogs, a husky
mix, a lab mix, 2 dobermans, a GSD pup and a ch. All ae rescues of
some sort. I've named the Chi Tater Tot and it seems to fit him. He
seems to be housebroken and is crate trained. How do I go about
training him for other stuff. Like I said before I'm used to big
dogs. I'm afraid I'll hurt him because he's so little. I want to have
him walk better on a leash but I don't know how with him being so
little and low to the ground.
Help?
