    Hey all, new member here. I’m currently living about an hour away from my grandma and our dog, a 5 year old chihuahua named Toby. Since I moved to college last year, it’s been just the two of them at our old house, which had its own fenced-in yard and area for Toby to play and potty if needed...

    My (8 years old, F) chihuahua has two lumps in the front of her neck, right at the base closer to her chest. They’re about an inch big and are perfectly symmetrical. Not too visible unless you look at her from a certain angle. She’s also a bit overweight by a couple pounds since her surgery last...

    Hello. I have a bit until we see the vet so I thought I’d come here for advice or by any chance a piece of mind. My chihuahua (spayed female, 8 years old) seems to have a small lump on her belly, closer to her side. It’s a slightly discolored light-pink and a bit firm to the touch. Is this...

    Hello there! I've just signed up and I was looking for some some information if at all possible. Our 5 y/o Chihauhau has unfortunately this last week been diagnosed with a luxating patella in his right knee. At the moment it's looking like a grade 3/4 case which is probably going to mean...

    Hi, I have 3 chi's. The 2 brothers are my profile pic and I have a blonde chi girl. She is currently pregnant by our chocolate boy. She is around 6-7 weeks. I can feel the babies moving. She is extremely good and potty trained. I've put her on my bed in the evening(where she sleeps) while I'm...

    We adopted our dog Rosie last year after a relative found her running loose in a local cemetery. No one ever reported her missing or claimed her when she was reported found. She is assumed to be a JRT/ Chihuahua mix. We believe her to be an escapee from a local hoarding situation that was...

    I have a 1,5 years old neutered female chihuahua. Don't get me wrong, she is lovely dog, who always makes me smile and I love her very much. But it is pretty bad when we are outside our house. The worst thing is other dogs. When she sees another dog, she barks, is very tense, pulls in a leash...

    Hello! My chihuahua is three years old. He has spent nights in a dog crate in our living room for his whole life. He whined during the first two weeks of this new transition, but then became used to the crate (with dog bed padding, of course). During the past couple of weeks, my dog has...

    So it's fall, and it's already getting very cold where I am at🥶 and I have a chihuahua who is used to warm weather. I'm afraid that he won't use the bathroom outside as he HATES the cold, but I also want him to get more use to it to at least not suffer having to use the bathroom outside, and...

    My chihuahua was fine after he banged his head on my elbow, but it did hurt for me so for sure he felt pain also. Should i be worried for a cracked skull or head injury? It's been 30 minutes and his behaviour is normal, but I am so worried!

    I have a 7-year old Chihuahua who’s not spayed yet. I was feeling her belly and when I pressed a bit on the center of her belly I feel a hard bump (almost like a ball), though it’s at least 1/4 of a centimeter and not visable whatsoever; it does not move either. Would it be safe to check with...

    Hello, everyone. I would really appreciate any advice you could give me in my situation if you know anything about aggression in dogs, especially senior dogs. So, I have been living with my boyfriend and his family for almost 4 years and his chihuahua as well. His chihuahua should be about 16...

    I have a six year old, 10 pound chi-dachshund mix named Hobbles. We adopted her from a shelter in March. She has mange on her back which makes us think that she may have suffered some neglect/malnutrition but she is very friendly so we have no reason to believe that she was ever physically...

    Hi all new here. I Was hoping to get some advice/reassurance on my dogs condition. Last week my little 1 yr old chihuahua collapsed and nearly died on arrival to the vets. She was admitted to hospital and turns out she has Addison’s disease. I’m new to having dogs to begin with and had...

    What are the mammary cancer risks for Chihuahuas? After reading up on it I got a bit scared. I’ve adopted older Chihuahuas who have not gotten spayed yet and I’m afraid they will get it and it will be fatal. (Here is one by the way.)

    Hello, I have an Australian Terrier mix that is 7 months old. While I was giving her a bath today I noticed she has two red spots on the side of her tummy. They look like pimples. She also has some smaller ones down there in that area. I’ll be going to the vet with her next week and I’ll ask...

    Hello, I have a 5 year old female chihuahua. A few days ago I noticed a white bump on her leg. She has never had this before so I’m worried, as I do not know what this is. I’m not sure if this requires immediate attention (due to COVID-19 I’d rather not leave the house unless absolutely...
