The Chihuahua: Perfect Apartment Companions

One of the smallest of the toy dogs is the Chihuahua. The
Chihuahua is most likely from Mexico many centuries ago. In his
native land they thought he helped passage into the afterlife
and was a sacred dog. The Chihuahua is known for a rounded,
apple shaped head with erect, pointed ears. Chihuahuas are found
in short smooth hair coats and long and soft coats. He generally
weighs 2 to 5 pounds.

The exact origin of the Chihuahua is unknown; however, it is
believed by many that his ancestors are an important part of the
Toltecs, which is an ancient Mexican civilization of the 9th
century. Ther Toltecs named the Chihuahua “Techichi.” Even after
the Aztecs conquered the Toltecs, the Chihuahua continued to
flourish for centuries. Archeologists have found Chihuahuas in
ancient graves. Then Hernando Cortes conquered Mexico and the
breed was lost to history. Few records of the little Chihuahua
were left behind. The Chihuahua was rediscovered in the late
1800’s near Mexico City.

The Chihuahua is active, not very sociable with other breeds,
but seems to recognize other Chihuahuas and enjoys their
company. He is a devoted family pet with streaks of jealousy
displayed when their beloved people spend time with other
people. They also tend to display jealousy of larger dogs.

In general, the Chihuahua is a healthy dog. There are a few
conditions you will want to look out for, they are:

• Cryptorchidism: A condition in which one or both testicles do
not descend into the scrotum;
• Hypoglycemia: Low blood sugar levels;
• Luxating patellas: Or loose kneecaps which can cause pain or
lameness.

Symptoms of hypoglycemia are common in the toy breed dogs less
than three months of age. Some bouts of hypoglycemia may be
associated with more serious disease such as Addison’s disease,
severe liver disease, tumors just to name a few. If hypoglycemia
episodes occur often you will need your vet to perform
diagnostic testing to determine if there is a more serious
problem causing the episodes.

Symptoms to watch for that relate to hypoglycemia:

• Loss of appetite;
• Extreme lethargy;
• Incoordination;
• Trembling;
• Muscular twitching;
• Weakness;
• Seizures;
• Unusual behavior;
• Dilated pupils;
• Stupor or coma.

Treatment for hypoglycemia may include:

• Giving glucose orally or by intravenous injection;
• Treatment for the underlying cause of hypoglycemia episodes.

At home if you suspect your Chihuahua has hypoglycemia you can:

• Rub Karo syrup on your dog’s gums and call your vet
immediately for further instructions;
• Provide a warm environment
• Frequent feedings;
• Routine vaccinations and deworming procedures;
• Young puppies should be fed 3 to 4 times per day.

Cryptorchidism is an inherited condition. Its occurrence cannot
be prevented in the individual animal. Castrating animals
diagnosed with this condition may help reduce the incidence in
the general population of the Chihuahua.
