Chihuahuas are all dog, fully capable of competing in dog sports such as agility and obedience, and are among the top ten watchdogs recommended by experts. These dogs love nothing more than being with their people and require a minimum of grooming and exercise. Contrary to popular belief, small size doesn't necessarily an apartment dog make. Plenty of small dogs are too high-energy and yappy for life in a high-rise. Being quiet, low energy, fairly calm indoors, and polite with the other residents are all good qualities in an apartment dog.

Chihuahuas: What's Good and Bad About Chihuahua Dogs
Chihuahua temperament, personality, training, behavior, pros and cons, advice, and information, by Michele Welton , Dog Trainer, Behavioral Consultant, Author of 15 Dog Books. Chihuahuas are comical, entertaining, expressive, and loyal little dogs. They burrow under blankets, dance on their hind legs, wave their paws in the air, and lick everything in sight. Chihuahuas are absolutely brimming with personality — often a quirky and eccentric personality unmatched by any other breed. Other than that generalization, Chihuahuas are extremely variable. You can find individuals who are lively or placid. Bold or timid.
Chihuahuas: What's Good About 'Em, What's Bad About 'Em
Chihuahuas are perhaps best known for being the smallest breed of dog in the world, but healthy adults vary in weight. There's no surefire way of telling exactly how big a Chihuahua puppy will grow, but you can get a rough idea by looking at a number of factors. If you're sure you want a pooch of a certain size, consider rescuing an adult Chi from a shelter. The average weight of an adult Chihuahua is between 3 and 6 pounds -- that's a wide variance for such a small breed.
Even though they are the smallest dog breed, they are intelligent and fiercely loyal to the people they love. Vets recommend feeding fully-grown Chihuahuas a high-quality pet food twice daily, using the information on their food packaging to determine portion sizes and making sure to consider their age, size, and daily activity. Vets also advise keeping food rewards and treats to a minimum.
