How to Play with a Chihuahua

Chihuahuas need a lot of attention, but they can be a great breed of dog.

They need a lot of time to play with their owners; here are some things you can do with your Chihuahua.

Take your Chihuahua out for a walk. They love being able to run through leaves in the fall, it's one of their favorite things outside.

Get a chew toy, or an old stuffed animal and play tug-of-war with your Chihuahua. It's always fun.

It's always good to take a rest after a while, so take a nap with your Chihuahua.

Try to teach your Chihuahua some tricks, it may be hard at first but your Chihuahua can really learn some cool things!

Give it a treat.

Just have fun!
