Answer 2: Regarding the above answer, I wouldn't mate a chihuahua with any other breed as they have enough difficulties whelping their own as it is. As any chihuahua owner should know, special preparation and care is required before, during and after whelping.

It is never safe to bred a teacup chihuahua. The risks are too great that the puppies may be bigger than her especially if the father is of larger size. Even with a male teacup chihuahua there is no guarantee as to his genetics thus the size of his offspring. If in hopes someone wishes to TRY to produce a teacup chihuahua- and there usually is only one and in exception 2 then a male teacup should be used with a larger female. If an accidental breeding occurs and the female is a teacup and the male is larger, then by all means seek the advice of a Vet and follow his professional advice. Be prepared for x rays and c - section birth. Do not wait until the female chihuahua goes into labor to call your Vet. She could die during the birthing process. By all means have the female teacup chihuahua spayed at the time of a c-section or as soon as the Vet allows. Do not have a second litter as the birthing process is exceptionally hard on a teacup. But most importantly, spay your teacup before a pregnancy occurs. Preplan when bringing a female teacup into your home by having all intact males neutered. It may be difficult to tell when your teacup is going into heat and you might want to wait a year to have her spayed so she reaches mature size and better able to handle surgery.

How do you look cute but not too cute around a boy when you are ugly?

Answer

You can doll yourself up, do your hair, wear the cutest outfit and smell like cherry blossoms-
BUT if you think you are ugly then all your efforts have gone to waste.

Confidence and self esteem shine through a lot stronger than physical appearance- Guys find happy confident women much more attractive than a "hot" girl who thinks she is ugly.

So wear something fun and have a blast!
I know it's cheesy but every single person is pretty in their own way.
The world wouldn't work if we all liked pineapple- sometimes you need pistachios.

But if you do think you are ugly just be yourself, and don't show off. A boy likes you for who you really are!♥

Are chihuahuas brachycephalic?

No, most chihuahuas are not brachycephalic. Brachycephalic means 'short head' and is seen notably on bulldogs or pugs. Chihuahuas have an average maxilla, called mesaticephalic. Other dogs have a very long head, called dolichocephalic, such as an afghan or greyhound.

That being said, I have seen a Chihuahua mix that was brachycephalic. It made him appear even more bug-eyed than usual.

What could a large jelly like lump be on my chihuahuas hind leg?

Depending on location, it could be a few different things. It could be a sebacous cyst which when breaks open can leak a cottage cheese looking substance, a mass cell tumor,which is fatty tissue and can sometimes keep growing and will need to be removed or it could be a non cancerous or cancerous tumor. In all cases if they grow large or bother the animal, it will neeed to be removed. A vet can do fine needle aspirate of the mass and do a cytology under the microscope to diagnose. In some cases even a biopsy will be recommended, if cytology results are inconclusive. Now if the mass is located in a certain area, it could be a swollen lymph node, which is serious, could be a sign of cancer and other serious illnesses.
