Most Chihuahuas do enjoy grooming. If you want to give a chihuahua a bath, just remember that not all chihuahuas like baths. Whether it is their first time or not, not ALL chihuahuas like baths. However, some do like getting bathed. If it is their first time, make them feel comfortable, gently put some water on them, then, once they start getting into the bath, reward them with a treat. This will them better at baths and less scared of the water. Now here is what you do. A average bathtub or a medium/large/small ( depending on your Chihuahua's size) kitchen sink will do ( kitchen sink or bathtub should be easier with a hose, however, if you do not have that choice, you can always use a large cup.) I'd recommend using dog shampoo and conditioner, however, you can use regular shampoo and conditioner, as long as its fragrant free, mild, and you use a small amount. If you are trying to style a Chihuahua's hair, you can only style a long haired chihuahua. I would recommend just doing cute little tiny braids ( so the braids don't have the best chance of getting in knots, I'd recommend taking the long haired chihuahua to a dog hair stylist.), however, if you don't care much for braids, you can always do small pony tails. Just get a nice hair band, (as i would not recommend rubber,) and put the pony tail in nicely. Not too tight, not too loose. You cannot style a short haired, smooth coat, or any chihuahua that does not have a "long-ish" coat. You can buy outfits for

Chihuahuas. I have a couple of outfits for my chihuahua, and they look absolutely ADORABLE. You can find little dog outfits on the internet, and at most pet stores. Now, best of all, your chihuahua should enjoy being softly brushed. If you don't have one already, go buy a soft bristle small brush from a pet store, or on the Internet. Once you have a brush, the most comfortable way for you to brush your chihuahua, is by simply just siting on the couch, laying in bed, or just relaxing with your little best friend. Grab the brush, let your Chihuahua lay comfortably, and brush him/her. Bonus: this will make their coat even softer.

I hope this helped!
