Why Chihuahuas Make Great Companions:

Chihuahuas have become increasingly popular in the United States, recognized as a highly sought-after breed by the American Kennel Club. Dr. Jennifer Frione, the owner of Lakeside Animal Hospital, explains why these small-sized dogs from Mexico have captured the hearts of many. Chihuahuas possess energetic and playful personalities, often expressing themselves through their vocal and expressive nature. They require minimal exercise, usually satisfied with short walks. Known for their long lifespan, averaging 12 to 15 years, Chihuahuas are generally loving and friendly, although they may exhibit a “big dog” mentality in certain situations.
