OK, so when I get the two chis () & I do believe in crate
training (at least until they are older & potty trained) do I crate
them together? Or do I crate them separate? Also, do they get

I also never bathed my Mini Pin and there's
probably a similarity to a short coat Chihuahua.
Twice a year baths were done by my vet when nails
were groomed, ears cleaned, shots given, the long

when fleas were being fought if a problem.

I've owned and worked with chihuahuas for 25 years and I NEVER give
them a bath unless they have gotten into something awful like tar on

It's also what my own vet has always suggested.
I've always heard that two baths a year are about
max for all dogs. There will be exceptions for
outside dogs, and there will be spot cleaning
required (butts especially), but full baths are
handled by me via the vet's groomer twice a year.

If a puppy is old enough to be separated from his mum, he's old enough to be
