I have a female 1 year old chihuahua and she is basically the perfect dog
When i got her a lot of people around me believed in the stereotype that sees em as yappy angry nevrotic dogs, and this made me very sad
Needless to say, the all changed their mind after they saw how amazing she is
I spent (and still spend) a lot of time training her and she is perfect with other dogs, children, strangers and cats!
Remember guys there are no such things as bad dogs, just bad owners
Labelling the chihuahua as "nevrotic" (as if it was the breed standard) actually fails to address the REAL problem, being bad owners that make their dog nevrotic with their lack of knowledge

I have a Chihuahua. He thinks he's 10 foot tall and Bulletproof. My chihuahua if that's what hilarious to watch him chase other dogs of our yard
A Chihuahua 4 1/2 pounds & he chases a big pitboxer mix. It's really funny to watch
