Chihuahua's have aggression issues because of breeding and socialization. Some chi's are not socialized as puppies. Chi's as puppies are especially small, and a lot of chi owner's don't like their little puppies around bigger dogs. Socializing a puppy means lots of visits with other dogs, children, adults, and taking them out into the world for different sights and sounds. Chi's are very susceptible to injuries, so a lot of owners will limit these visits thinking that they are protecting them...instead they wind up with little dogs that don't know how to handle strange situations. A chi can show aggression when stressed out by a strange dog, person or place. Some aggressive chi's are also a result of bad breeders. Chihuahua's are popular and backyard breeders see this as easy money, and they breed chi's that should never be bred. That's why it's very important to see what a puppies parents are like if at all possible when picking out a puppy. Socializing your puppy with other dogs, people and places will also help with aggression. But remember to keep your puppy safe while socializing.
