The Chihuahua is a tiny toy sized dog. The body is longer than its tall. The head is well-rounded, apple in shape and the muzzle is short and pointed with a well-defined stop. Puppies have a soft spot in the top of the skull, challed a "molera", which usually closes by adulthood. The large, round eyes are set well apart and are dark, ruby, and may be lighter in white dogs. The erect ears are large. Dewelaws may be removed. The tall is long, sickle-shaped and either curled over the back or to the side. The coat can be short, long, and wavy or flat. All colors, both solid, marked or splashed are accepted.

Brave, cheerful and agile, Chihuahuas can be strong-willed without proper human leadership. They are loyal and become attached to their owners. Some like to lick owner's faces. For some, they may be slightly difficult to train, but they are intelligent, learn quickly, and respond well to proper, firm but gentle training.
They are good little dogs for apartment life. The Chihuahua likes warm weather and dislikes the cold. They need space just like any other dog. Although they are small it does not mean they can be kept in a very small area.
