Do any of yall have Chihuahuas? If so, how do they get along with other animals (small and large)?
The reason I ask is because the other day when the family was over for Christmas dinner, my cousin was telling my grandmaw that his Chihuahua was pregnant (the dad is also Chihuahua) and asked if I could have a puppy from the litter, she apparently said yes. He came into the living room and told me. I was completely caught off guard, my grandmaw has always said no and been completely against getting another dog. I'm guessing it's a Christmas present. I have never owned a Chihuahua and don't really know much about them. My main concern is how it would be around other animals, inside and outside. My current dog, Laci, is an 8 year old Pomeranian (7.4 lbs) and gets along great with every animal we have and new ones that come in. I got her when she was about 6 weeks old though and trained her myself, she was introduced to all kinds of animals, people, places, etc. She is very well behaved and very sweet. I am a little nervous though, it has been a long time since I've had a puppy!
Any advice and information is greatly appreciated!
