That’s so sweet 🥰 Thank you!

She is absolutely PERFECT!! Be careful with her anyway because of larger dogs. You can run her around your apartment and that’ll be enough exercise for her little tiny legs. One of your steps is like 20 steps for her. Separation anxiety is the hardest to combat with these companions dogs, but be consistent and she will learn to adjust. Potty training might have its ebbs and flows, just a word of warning. My boy did great and then didn’t, then did great and then didn’t… It wasn’t until he was 7 months old that he finally stopped having accidents in the house. Everyone warned me though that small dogs can take longer to housebreak. We rescued a little dude that was struggling to reach 2kg at 4/5 months old, so we assumed he’d stay a little guy. Even got his DNA analyzed and found out he’s 48.9% Chihuahua 25.8% Miniature/Toy Poodle 14.3% Miniature Pinscher 11% Pug, which further led us to believe he’d stay a little dog. However, he and Mother Nature had other ideas. Once we got him vetted and on all the right meds to battle the multiple common stray street dog illnesses (Coccidia, Giardia & Kennel Cough) this dog would not stop growing, in height and weight. It shocked everyone, even our vet. He’s now a little over 2 yrs old and a whopping 23lbs!! INSANITY! A science minded friend took a look at his DNA and told me that for some reason he just didn’t inherent the genetics responsible for keeping toy breeds very small, but unfortunately it’s most likely because he came for poorly bred dogs. We also got the genetic report for his health too and he came back mostly clear except for carrying one bad gene for dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM1/PDK4), although they tell me he’s not likely to develop the disease because this gene primarily adversely affects Dobermans which is not on his breed mix, but we still keep him on a heart healthy diet and exercise routine to ensure we don’t inadvertently cause it through environmental factors. He’s 40cm long, 55cm chest and 35cm tall! More than double the height and weight he should be for this mix of 4 breeds categorized as Toy breeds! I like to call him my unique big little dude. Chico is our boys name and his bathing process is ridiculous because I’m crazy, I do it around once every 3 weeks because by husband is allergic to his dander. Yes, he’s spoiled. His coat gets brushed out to remove the tiny bit he sheds. Then into a warm bath with coconut oil for his dirty paws to soak a bit while I brush his teeth. Then he’s shampooed & scrubbed, and rinsed clean. Then he’s dried off quickly since he’s not got much of a coat. After that his paw pads & nose get moisturized, and his nails get clipped. Finally, his doggie cologne gets sprayed on and he’s ready to face the world! This dog is my heart! I wish I could share a pic of my unique little big dude here ♥️🐾

@@heidiguttenberg I just recently won the battle with clipping his nails, he just wouldn’t stay still for me for the longest time. It was the simplest answer and always there. He tends to get really mellow with clothes on, so I thought maybe I’d put a shirt on him, have lots of tiny treats nearby and once again try clipping his nails. And it actually worked! I really wasn’t expecting it to though, I was so shocked 😂 But I also think it’s maturity that comes with age too, he’s 2 now, so much less energetic than a crazy wiggly puppy. Before that I was bringing him to my vet every couple of weeks and they’d would do it without a problem from him. You can look for a groomer too, they’d likely offer it as a stand alone service.

@NativeNYerChicHK

9 ай бұрын

@@heidiguttenberg yes! While you have your vet on hand to do the nail trimmings for now, get her used to touch on every inch of her little body. I did this through massage, especially easy to do at the end of a long day when they’re too tired to wiggle much. Whole body massage, from her head to the tip of her tail, down each leg to each individual paw pad and her nails, handling her face to look closely at her eyes, handling & looking into her ears and even lifting her lips to see her teeth & gums. And get her used to your fingers in her mouth, god forbid she gets something she can’t eat, you have to be able to get things from her mouth and clenched teeth. I use “let me see” or “let mama see” as the command for letting me inspect his ears, eyes, mouth & teeth and he acquiesces, because he knows it’s always followed up with reward & praise. I started it all with the massage when he was too tired to fight much, but now that it’s engrained he lets me do it all while wide awake too now. All of this is actually good for you too, petting dogs is associated with lowered blood pressure! It’s a win-win situation. She gets the massage and you get better health 😊 That way too, if she ever gets hurt and it becomes emergency situation, she’ll already trust you to handle every part of her body and you’ll be able to assess the injury. And with trimming my Chico nails, I start with giving him a few treats before I do anything to get him comfortable and then treat him whenever I see that him starting to become anxious, and he gets a small handful after successfully trimming a few nails, just to let him know he’s doing great. They call that a “jackpot” in training. When your dog training is going really well, instead of giving just one treat you give them a small handful. I did this always when training recall. Whenever he came when I called him, he got a jackpot. His recall is now phenomenal! Also important when training recall is to never ever use their name or the “come” command for discipline and never add saying their name to a “No”, their name can only be associated with reward and praise. That way they’re guaranteed to come when called because you’re instilling that there is a guaranteed positive outcome when heeding that command, whether your recall be their name or the “come” command, or both which I do often, “Chico, Come!” And always in a positive singsong type of voice. He now loves the sound of his own name 🤣

I wanted to mention, if Bianca ever gets issues of yelping in pain, with no signs of why, it's probably a spinal-to-brain issue. I was one day away from having Tito 'put down' because all I could do was give him heavy medication, which was literally killing him. I got him back to health by putting peanut butter on his nose because he wasn't eating. The pain episodes had stopped from all the medication. I had to figure out what had triggered the sort of 'seizure' issue. The veterinarian could only suggest extremely dangerous surgery, which might not even work. >>> I guessed that Tito was getting physical jolts when he would jump off of my bed, which could be triggering a spinal-to-brain issue. He wouldn't use steps, so I made a landing pad for him to jump onto. >>> He would still have 'mild' episodes without the horrific yelping for 5-15 minutes at a time. Mild episodes where I could just see that something was wrong. To this day, at 10 years old, that happens maybe once a month, or less. >>> 'The Chihuahua Fortitude': In the midst of the worst days of all that, when Tito could barely walk or bark, he would still try to bark if someone came to the door. So painfully cute... and inspiring; that big 'spark of life' in such a little boy. >>> Good news for you; Bianca is obviously an 'applehead' Chihuahua, Tito is a "deerhead'. I think the larger apple head might mean there is more physical room for the brain, possibly meaning little, to no issues like I have mentioned. Just guessing, but I genuinely feel like the guessing I did with Tito actually worked. >>> Bianca is so cute and beautiful, and so is Tito. My sister-in-law also has a long-haired Chihuahua, called Coco, sometimes I look at them and have to look away because their beauty and cuteness is literally overwhelming.

I love the way Chihuahuas are not afraid of anything. I saw Bianca with one of the cats becoming curious about her. The cat was very wary, but Bianca was not at all. I've had my Chihuahua, Tito around my niece's 80 pound dog, and Tito was the more 'aggressively' playful one. With my brother's 30 pound dog, who was quite playfully 'aggressive', Tito was still aggressive too. His name is Tito, but has quite a few names; I call him Booger or Boogs the most (like booker) because he IS a little booger (fiesty). I also call him 'little boy' a lot. I really only call him Tito when he's in a bit of trouble, or when I'm calling him from another room or something. kzread.info/dash/bejne/daycyc59gr3bpbA.html and: kzread.info/dash/bejne/i3163LV8epS3mqw.html

I am sorry this is an old post of yours that I am commenting on - but I remember in one of your videos you mentioned that you used minoxidil. (I am not sure if you use topical or oral minoxidil) - but Dr. Gary Linkov here on YT has a video that you may want to watch: "Why I Hate Topical Minoxidil" cue to 7:30 and he mentions the significant toxicity for dogs and cats and how a very small spill can be toxic or even worse (I don't like to use the word that rhymes with natal but so many people do not know about minoxidil and how little the pet can be exposed to that can harm it (just sleeping on a pillow that one has slept on with minoxidil in their hair, or a small spill.) And I am not sure of the half life of minoxidil (how long it is active as in a spill that got wiped off only/no soap and water to remove it) but a pharmacist or vet may be able to advise. Please be safe Heidi and you look wonderful !

Just remember she is a dog, don’t smother her and let her be a dog. Try to avoid the big dog syndrome that Chihuahuas can get. Teach her leash walking early on and don’t let her only want to be with you, she needs to learn to her own independence. Get her socialized with everything!
