<human>: I like Chihuahuas. I've noticed a lot of people mention they don't like chihuahuas because they're crap dogs or because they yap too much.

Chihuahuas get a tough break. People don't think they're proper dogs so they do things like lock them up in bathrooms all day and don't give them any training. They're frequently collected by animal hoarders. My friend owns a Chi rescue and I've seen some fucked up results of neglect and abuse when I get called to help out. I don't know for sure, but I suspect the rates of abuse towards chihuahuas are higher than other breeds because of their size.

Give them training and a good upbringing and they're ballin little dudes, as brave and capable as any other breed. I had one called Mr Cheese. Mr Cheese would quietly follow at my heel to the ends of the earth even if he had to swim through deep water or wade through mud. The whole world was massive and intimidating to him, but he gave no fucks as long as he got to follow me around. I miss Mr Cheese.

<bot>: Chihuahuas are not deserving of the hate and distain they get, they can be awesome dogs. Consider adopting one if you want a small low maintenance dog.
