Long Haired Chihuahua

I have a long haired chihuahua and he’s really naughty he bites peoples toes, he does not listen. When we say come he doesn’t and hes just extremely naughty

I want to know how to teach him to stop without expenses of a dog trainer of special items.
Also, he lives in the house, and he refuses to pee on the pee pad and we have tile floors and it goes all in the grout how do we stop this as well and make him pee on the mat?

Thank you

Yup, been there! Chi’s are stubborn little dogs. You have to outsmart them. Also, hopefully he’s a puppy and will grow out of it, mine seems to be getting more obedient as he gets older.

“Come” – When you call him act very excited, and clap your hands together. Give him lots of attention when he does come, and reward him with a puppy treat.

Biting – they think biting is a game. Being told no doesnt work. Act like you are really hurt, withdraw your foot, and yelp in pain like a dog. They need to learn to be gentle, rather than not to put things in their mouth at all.

Peeing – They normally go first thing in the morning and about 20 mins after eating . Just pick your dog up and put him on the mat. Make him stay there until he’s gone, while telling him to “go wees” (or similar). When he goes act all excited and tell him what a good boy he is, and give him a puppy treat. When he goes on the tiles, act all stern and tell him “no”, pick him up and put him on the pee pad.

Most importantly, you need to be consistent with your behaviour and rewards, and then the puppy will be consistent with his behaviour.

My parents and I are thinking of getting a chihuahua but I'm debating over a short-haired one or a long-haired one, and like I said before, we live in a desert-like environment.

Chihuahuas are heat seekers. I have both the long and short haired variety. I also live in what could be considered desert conditions. Of course, chis are indoor dogs who don't tolerate cold well at all, but with plenty of water and someplace cool to lay when they've had enough heat (mine like laying next to the toilet on the cool tile in the bathroom!) they're ideal for someplace that would be a little too warm for other dogs.
Incidentally, my 2 short hairs shed worse than my long haired!
They are sweet, happy little dogs. I think you'll be pleased with your choice!

I just got my long haired Chihuahua yesterday. he stops after a while but once you pick him up he starts shaking. Just different times he starts shaking. He barks a lot too! Is there anyway I can make him stop barking(later on down the road because he is too young) and help him stop shaking?

I breed chihauhuas. Shaking is perfectly normal. I f you just got him yesterday he is probably shaking because hes nervous being in a new setting their nerves are so bad. Hell calm down but theyll still shake every time they get cold, scaredd, or even have to use the bathroom!
