Breed Information

Overview

The Chihuahua Mix is not a purebred dog. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and understand that you can get any combination of the characteristics found in either breed.

The Chihuahua Mix is a cross between a Chihuahua and another dog breed. Because a puppy can inherit any combination of traits from their parents, it’s important to ask about the other parent breed in the mix. Should a Chihuahua Mix take after their Chi parent, they will be a small, playful dog that is devoted to their families.

Temperament

A Chihuahua can be bold or shy, but tends to be lovable, playful, and alert. They bond closely with their families and can have a big, sassy personality. As long as they have been properly socialized, they tend to get along with children who know how to interact with small dogs and other pets. Because they can be prone to nipping or getting aggressive when they are nervous or scared, it is essential to socialize and train them properly. If the other parent breed tends to have a similar temperament, then you can expect the same from a Chihuahua Mix. However, you will still want to ask about the other parent breed as they will likely have some quirks of their own. You can also meet the mother dog in-person to see what her temperament is like. You can also see what manners she is modeling for her puppies and teaching them. The breeder should have started with socialization and training. However, it is up to you to continue to train and socialize a puppy into a well-rounded dog once you get them home.
