Cino (Bed4460)

Cino is quite a little man about the house.

Cino will be ready in a 4-6 weeks, Safe Broome are still happy to take expressions of interest for him, more photos and descriptions will be added closer to the available for adoption date.

Chihuahuas are comical, entertaining, and loyal little dogs, absolutely brimming with personality – often a quirky and eccentric personality unmatched by any other breed. Other than that generalization, Chihuahuas are extremely variable. You can find individuals who are lively or placid. Bold or timid. Feisty or mellow. Confident or nervous. Stubborn or eager to please.

Chihuahuas need a lot of socialisation and training! They often have a label for being nasty dogs but in truth this is mostly due to humans condoning bad behaviour (as with any other breed really but Chi's are treated more like toys than dogs so seem to get away with it more).

Chihuahuas tend to bond to one person or their family unit and can become standoffish or aggressive to outsiders. It is important that this behaviour is recognised as unacceptable and dealt with immediately.

Chihuahuas are not ideally suited to families with young children... amongst various reasons one is they break easily! They also have a very long life span (15-22yrs!) so getting a puppy for an elderly family member as a companion may not be in the dogs best interests later on in life.

Please take these points into consideration before applying to adopt a Chi breed as these are the points that will be used to screen the successful applicant.
