Chihuahuas

The Chihuahua, the smallest breed of dog in the world, is named after the state of Chihuahua in Mexico. A graceful, alert, swift-moving little dog with a saucy expression. There are two distinct breed types, a long coat of soft texture and a short coat. Recently, Chihuahuas have become famous as the Taco Bell dog. Adored for his small size, the Chihuahua is a bright eyed, dainty dog who is perfect for living in close quarters, such as apartments.
