They are so petite, they swallow pieces of food too big then swallow them after coughing (same with pieces of string from toys).
Chihuahuas have small tracheas and cough when it gets blocked. Walking a chihuahua on a collar can block off their tracheas, so it's recommended that when walking any small dog always use a harness because it takes the pressure off their tiny necks. Some chihuahuas also cough when stressed, it's called a reverse sneeze (aka cough) and can make a worried pet owner panic. It's a hacking couch that sounds like they are trying to get air into their lungs. The trick there is to remain calm and try to calm your chihuahua down, some gentle petting will relax them enough to get them through it.
