How many months old is a one year old dog in dog years?
Depends on the breed and which definition of "dog year" you use.
By the definition "the amount a dog ages in a year", the answer is simple: 1 year.
By the definition "the equivalent portion of a human's lifetime", for larger breeds it's about 9 and for smaller ones about 13 (according to Wikipedia).
The popular formula "1 dog year equals 7 human years" (or vice versa) is inaccurate.

When do Chihuahua puppies ears begin to stand up?
As early as 8 weeks but by 6 months if they haven't already they most likely are not going to stand. As above yes, at the moment, I have a Chihuahua pup. His name is Bandido, and he is 7 weeks of age, and he is showing the signs of his ears perking higher up. If you wish for them to begin to stand erect sooner. It is a good idea to lightly (not too hardly, or it will hurt them) masage the muscels below their ears. This helps the muscels to become stronger, to be able to lift their ears. But, its known, in some cases, after loosing their baby teeth on one side, or both. Their ears can droop back down. But dont fret, they will rise again. But, its sad to say, in some cases, some Chihuahua's ears never do stand up. But as I've said, masage them. And that WILL help them. Hope your's ears perk up ;) they sure are adorable once they do. ~Indi-
Why older chihuahuas walk with butt sideways?
Dementia. If it's an old dog or if it's been poisoned, some sort of mental issue could cause a dog to walk sideways. Pain from some sort of internal issue like a bladder infection or trauma could also.
By the way, something I learned recently that the majority of dogs over the age of ten experience dementia. Age, size, health all factor in on when it starts, but most do. There are medicines to help slow age related brain damage - so as soon as you see this in your old dog get them to the vet ASAP to get your fury friend on meds.

How do you look after a chihuahua?
First of all, you need to research about the chihuahua breed to see i it's the one for you. I have three chihuahuas, and they all got along with my 5 year old standard poodle. Trust me, chihuahuas are a fantastic breed, but make sure it's the right for you. If you have other dogs, keep them away from the chihuahua unless it's under your supervision and controlled. Chihuahuas are very fragile, so if you handle one, please be careful because they are very delicate. Chihuahuas are great with kids once they get older and a little bigger. Chihuahuas are very intelligent dogs, very mellow. They are a little hyper when they are a little younger, bu they mature around 1 year and 5 months of age. I hope this helped, and congrats if you get a new puppy!! Or if you already have one!!! :)

How much food should you give a chihuahua?
It depends on what breed it is. Some will eat anything you give them and therefore overeat. This habit can develope by you only serving your pet specific portions and nothing more until the next schedualed mealtime. This puts your dog in a habit of eating all it is given. If your dog won't overeat then i suggest leaving out a bowl of food all the time. If your dog will, I suggest talking to your vet. He will factor in the breed and size/weight to help you.

In my experience, there are several things to consider when thinking of breeding dogs. First, the dogs should be at least one year of age, healthy and well adjusted. Second, be sure the dogs are not related to each other. Third, keep the dogs safety in mind when breeding, be careful that they do not injure each other. And lastly, be sure the female is ready, if she fights the male she is not ready.
