What do Chug, Cheagle, and Chigi all have in common? They are all types of Chihuahua mixes!
Many people love the Chihuahua for its small size and fierce attitude. But, some want a dog that’s a little less spice and sweeter. Others may want a mix that has less yap and more charm.
Read on to learn more about these lovable mixes and find out which is perfect for you…
Chihuahua Mixes
The Chihuahua is the smallest dog breed in the world, and it originated in Mexico and is known for its big attitude and fiery heart. This tiny dog has become wildly popular in America due to being low maintenance and adaptability to small living spaces.
Over the last twenty years, Chihuahuas have been bred with nearly every kind of dog.
Chihuahua mix breeds are hybrid dogs with one parent Chihuahua and one parent from another. Some of the most popular dog breeds used are Dachshund, Pugs, and Corgis.
All of these mixes have their own unique and off-the-wall names. A few funny ones include the Taco Terrier and the Chug!
Some mixes may take after the Chihuahua, while others will not. There is no guarantee of what each puppy will look like.
The most popular five Chihuahua mixes are:
- Chiweenie
- Chi Chi
- Chug
- Pomchi
- Chorkie
Many of these mixes can take the best traits from their parents.
An excellent example of this is the Labrahuahua. Chihuahuas are frequently bred with the Labrador Retriever. This helps to produce a dog that does not have a sassy, temperamental attitude. Instead, Labrador’s easy-going, laid-back personality delivers a more mellow mix.
However, it is important to research both parent breeds before you adopt.
Your mix may act more like a Chihuahua or the other parent. There is no way to guarantee what their personality will be.
Chihuahua Mix Breeds
1. Chiweenie (Chihuahua and Dachshund)

This mix goes by many different names, including Choxie, Weeniehuahua, German Taco, and Mexican Hot Dog. Who wouldn’t want a puppy called a Mexican Hot Dog?
The Chiweenie is charismatic, loyal, and spunky. Many Chiweenies will get close to one family member and tend to reserve that love for only one person, making this hybrid best suited for singles. They will love this person dearly, though, and will always want to be close to them.
Since both parents can be anxious, Chiweenie can quickly develop anxiety about many things. They can also be yappy and bark at anything unknown to them. Apartment life may not be the best choice with this yappy Chihuahua mix.
