Girls rule? Boys drool?
Which gender makes the best pet? Male or female? In most ways there is no difference. Chihuahuas - both male and female - are have similar personalities (from passive to dominant), are equally loving and lovable, and are equally intelligent.

So what about "marking?" Well, both males and females mark their territory. However, boys do a lot more leg lifting to mark just about everything in sight. Chairs, potted plants, tables, shoes left out, etc. Ugh! Because of this, I would estimate 75% of families want females only, while 25% don't care - male or female. It's really rare to have a family who specifically wants a male.
What options are there? First, have your male neutered before puberty. This will not only eliminate most of the leg lifting, it will also reduce his chances of testicular cancer and prostate disease.
If this is not an option, then you can try doggie diapers. These are wraps that go around the male's mid section. He will continue to lift his leg and mark around the house, but it's kept in the diaper. A great option!
All-in-all, we love all our Chihuahuas, male and female. What's important is you do your research and due diligence. Ask questions, read, and talk to other dog owners.
Hopefully, you will have a loving, cuddly relationship with your Chihuahua. They are our little sweetie pies!

So cute to see them falling asleep in your hands. I was leaning more towards a female because since females have less testosterone they might be less prone to being aggressive.

@SweetiePiePets 5 лет назад

John Doe I have 2 girls in my breeding program who are more aggressive than any of the males I have. But I think that’s just their personality. When you get ready to pick your baby, we’ll have to pay close attention to personality. By age 8 weeks it’s pretty apparent which puppies are more assertive (which can turn into aggressive if allowed) and which are more docile. Godiva is definitely turning out to be more assertive than little Pom Pom who’s super laid back. So adorable how they’re all different 🥰

@antonyawinchester1468 4 года назад

Okey this depends on the dog but if you look at the facts around characteristics of dogs and genders. Female dogs tend to be more aggressive and violent then male dogs. If two males started a fight, they fight until one of them gives up, but if females fight, they fight to the death unfortunately. This dose not mean that they are born aggressive, just that in aggressive situations or when triggered females lash out more then males 😊 I hope this helped you. (I have a female Rottweiler at the moment and she’s the sweetest, but in aggressive situations she is lashing out before the males and more aggressively.) there is a lot of different between female and male dogs, google a little and you should find out some 😊 have a nice day 💕

@SweetiePiePets 4 года назад

Antonya Winchester thanks for your input, but that hasn’t been my experience in the 19 years I’ve been raising chihuahuas. I have found that SOME males are more aggressive while others are more docile, while SOME females are more aggressive and others more docile. It has been my experience that it completely depends on the personality of the Chihuahua rather than the gender. There’s a lot of articles you can read and I’m sure some people have had different experiences than I have. But I can only report on my own experiences .... and I do have quite a bit 🐶 ❤️ Thanks again for your input though. I always appreciate hearing from my viewers 😊 ps, I’ve seen quite a few chihuahua fights but I’ve never seen one to the death. 😥

I was set in getting a long haired female. Then I saw my short haired boy😆. He is so kind and smart and even tempered, although he barks in the garden when he goes out. (Just in case!) He doesn't mark. He turned 1 yesterday and can now lift his leg so high he nearly falls over. 😆 😆 He's not fixed but I think I will get him done because I don't want to breed him. He's my pal and I've not trained him to do anything using treats but he liked my happy dance so that's his reward. He had a pad for during the night but hasn't used it for weeks now. There's never been an unhappy moment since I got him. He and I are perfect together. So, Happy Birthday Dempsey. 💛🎉🍗

But they’re all adorable 😍

@vinny83642 5 лет назад

First off, I have to say I LOVE watching your videos! My wife and I recently rescued a six month old male Chihuahua pup. He instantly won our hearts with his larger than life personality. I do have a couple questions as we have never owned or trained a Chihuahua before. We have a 12 year old mixed breed dog thats about 40 pounds. Our puppy is constantly posturing and racing around him, but the 12 year old looks at him like hes an alien. Do you have any advice on how to bond the two dogs, or is there a way for them to safely play together? They are constantly stealing toys from each other and neither is aggresive towards the other, but its like they are speaking different languages.. Another question we have is weather our new cuddle buddy is pure or not. We arent going to breed him, but are curious to know. Can you tell by seeing pictures, or is there an easy way to tell? Sorry for the book, I appreciate any advice you may have! -Victor

@SweetiePiePets 5 лет назад

Hello Victor, thank you so much for your message and congratulations on your sweet new baby. So first off, lol, your puppy is constantly posturing - so cute but definitely needs your attention. This posturing is very typical behavior of a Chihuahua who wants to be dominant. Sometimes an older dog is willing to just sort of ignore the posturing, but if the 12 year old becomes too jealous or fed up, he could turn on the puppy. Watch them especially during meal times (maybe feed them in separate rooms - or if you free feed like I do, have 2 bowls of food out on opposite sides of the room so that neither of them can horde). Within a couple months together (maybe less), they should become more comfortable with each other and settle in as best buds. Even if the Chihuahua irritates the 12 year old, he will still likely protect him with his own life if it came to that. Chihuahuas are extremely loyal to their "pack". Since he's quite obviously a dominant personality, I would pay PARTICULAR attention to the humans in the pack -- make sure to ALWAYS let him now YOU and your wife are the boss of HIM. Do not let him "protect" you when company comes over which can be the beginning of aggressive behavior. Don't pick him up when he's nervous. Rather, bend down and give him a reassuring pat on the back and then let him deal with his nerves. If he's had all his puppy shots, invite friends over to meet him. When you open the door, make sure he is standing behind you. Don't let him greet the guests in front of you because greeting the guests is the pack leader's job. Let your guests know ahead of time that you're training your new sweetie pie to be accepting of company. Don't pay him ANY attention at first (don't even look at him). Believe it or not, the cold shoulder is one way dogs communicate authority. A dog who gives a cold shoulder communicates that they are already the pack leader and don't need to fight for that position. Make sure your guests ignore him too. Then, have everyone sit down (preferably in his favorite chair so he knows he has to share). If he's barking, continue ignoring. If he is curious, pick him up and hand him to your guests. This communicates to him that YOU are in control of who comes into your house. The earlier you begin working on training, the fewer bad habits they develop and the easier it is to train them. Good luck to you and your wife and both of your sweetie pies!

@dianeoliver9041 4 года назад

I got my male Chihuahua neutered when he was 7 mo. old, at the time he was hunching his favorite stuffed toy, but not hiking his leg or marking. Since he’s been fixed, he still doesn’t hike to pee & doesn’t mark his territory, but he does still hunch anything he can!!!! He is the only male dog in house with 3 spayed female dogs. Why does he still hunch things after being fixed?

@SweetiePiePets 4 года назад

Diane Oliver 😩 and also 😂!! So, I think I need to do a video on this because there’s a lot to be said. Long story short, humping is pretty common even after neutering. It’s difficult to get them to stop and I don’t actually recommend you get after him for humping a toy. In fact I prefer to give him his own special humping toy so that rather than trying to prevent the behavior, you just give him an appropriate means of politely carrying out his habit. What you CAN train him is not to hump other dogs or people. If he tries that I would use a redirection command. I’ll go more into detail as soon as I make a video. Thanks for the question 😀

In terms of dogs I agree they have such big personalities it really depends on the dog. When I ownned rats I chose boys because they're known to be more snuggly, quiet, lovable while girls were always on the move. So glad I found your channel during my Chihuahua search :)

@bosslady1914 3 года назад

Great video Kelly!! I have some more questions!!! I'm going to get a male chi that won't be fixed, and want to make sure I'm prepared. Do they always mark and hump things? Does the doggy diaper really catch it all enough that he can come cuddle you and it's not gross? When the female are not in heat, can he hang out with them all in the house like a big family? Do you take the pack on walks together? Or do you just keep the males at a seperate house all together? Is the female in heat the only time you seperate them? Thank you so much if you see this and have time to respond!

@SweetiePiePets 3 года назад

Hello boss lady (I have a shirt that says boss lady 💪🏻 💃🏻) excellent questions. So, If you get your boy and potty train him from an early age, there is a chance he will not start marking inside your house at all. However if he is around other dogs, or especially if he smells like female in heat, that’s when his brain will trigger him to start marking. If you have no other dogs in the house, then just keep it that way so that hopefully he never picks up that habit. If he does start marking then it’s very difficult to break him of that habit and he would need to wear a diaper the whole time he’s walking around loose in your house. The diapers do pretty good but some of them get good at scooting around until it falls off 😂

@selisejohnson 4 года назад

I just recently received my chi for Christmas he's 10 weeks and is humping his toys already 🤦🏽‍♀️

@SweetiePiePets 4 года назад

selisejohnson oh no!! 🤦‍♀️ yes some of them are prone to doing that from a young age and generally it’s directly related to how domineering their personality is. Humping is a sign of attempted dominance. But if you are concerned about him being overly hormonal, just follow your vets recommendations for getting him fixed as soon as he’s large enough. Hugs to you and your sweetie pie from me and mine!

Hello we just got toy chihuahua at least that's what we were told they said he was 8 weeks old but we believe that he is not a week so we took him to PetSmart the vet she told us that he was 3 weeks and didn't have any teeth so we got him June 9th and it has probably been a week already and we noticed that he is getting baby teeth we would like to know when he can start eating solid food because we are feeding him through a bottle we have been watching your show and we are learning a lot from you I love chihuahuas we never expected this puppy to be this small he is very tiny and we want to do right by him so if you have any suggestions please let us know and thank you.

@SweetiePiePets 3 года назад

Oh my gosh what a terribly immoral person who sold you a 3 week old puppy. I'm so disgusted to hear that. Their teeth come in around 4 weeks so yes, I agree with your PetSmart vet's assessment with his approximate age. Keep up the bottle feeding and also you can go ahead and start adding solid food into his diet as follows: Use only a healthy puppy kibble. This is what I use: lifesabundance.com/Pets/Puppy/PuppyFoodSmMedBreed.aspx?realname=20275835&cat=0&hdr=&Ath=False&crt=0&Category=SmallBreedPuppyFood_v11(Pet_Base)&Sku=401206 Soak the kibble in puppy formula for about an hour until it's completely soft. Then hand feed him one piece at a time. He will likely use his succle reflexes to suck the piece of mushy food into his mouth and swallow it. Do only one piece at a time, slowly at first to make sure he does not choke. In the meantime, continue with the bottle feedings. Just start him on solids by adding in a few pieces of the soaked kibble every 3-4 hours. As he continues to grow, you can cut down on the bottle feedings and increase the soaked kibble feedings. Remember, he's a tiny puppy so he only needs tiny meals, but they must be often throughout the day. His stomach is only about the size of his paw. Around age 6-6.5 weeks old, you can stop the bottle feeding all together and introduce him to hard kibble. Keep up with the soaked feedings every 3-4 hours but add a bowl of the hard kibble to his habitat area and see if he's able to eat it on his own. Again, it should be a slow transition from the soaked food to the hard kibble and by age 8 weeks he should be able to eat the hard kibble on his own without needing the soaked food at all. I hope this helps and I'm so sorry you got a puppy from such a terrible human being. A 3 week old puppy needs mama's milk only. Would you mind telling me where you got this puppy? I'd love to confront the breeder and ask why they're selling 3 week old puppies and lying about their age.

Why are your chis so calm? How do you achieve that? I am getting one but this aspect concerns me slightly.🥺

@SweetiePiePets 3 года назад

It’s all about socialization. When you get your Chihuahua make sure it has been hand raised and had a good start on social skills. Then continue offering her lots of opportunities for different experiences. Take her places with you, let her meet people and other pets. The more she is exposed to that the less nervous she will be. Also keep in mind that dogs mirror their pack leaders energy. The human family member is the pack leader so I always have a calm demeanor and she will follow your lead ❤️

@@SweetiePiePets Thank you so much. I have another important question; How come your chis stay so small? Where I live, all the breeders I found have chihuahuas that are much bigger, is this a specific type of chihuahua you have, maybe? I would die to have some like yours!

@Idkwhat464 3 года назад

@@SignificantOwner Very late response but there are 2 types of chihuahuas. Apple heads and Deerheads. Maybe the big chi’s you are seeing are deerhead, deerheads are bigger than apple heads and have a skull representing a baby deer.(That’s probably the reason their called that) and apples heads like the ones in the video are apple heads. Apple heads are smaller and more delicate compared to their deerhead brothers. If you’re still in the hunt maybe search ‘Applehead chihuahuas for adoption/sale whatever your looking for.

I have a female chihuahua that will soon be one year old, and I’m considering getting a second chihuahua. In this case, is it better to get a male, or will two spayed females get along well? Also I use a litter pan and am worried a male dog won’t be as accurate using it as my female. I’ve also heard that long haired and smooth coated chihuahuas have personality trait differences. This couldn’t be true, right?

@SweetiePiePets 4 года назад

Amy Spencer Hello and thank you for the comment. So if your little girl had a dominant personality then you either need to get a male, or a submissive female. Generally canines live in packs with one dominant male and one dominant female. A dominant female wouldn’t be threatened by a dominant male but would likely fight with another dominant female. In my experience the short coats and long coats do tend to have different personalities but it’s funny because some other Chihuahua owners think the exact opposite of me. To me the long coats seem more loving while the short coats seem more wiry and dominant… But I’m wondering if that’s just a coincidence of my own experiences with my Chihuahuas. Because I’ve heard other Chihuahua owners say the exact opposite about the personality differences of long vs short coats. Maybe it’s not so much to do with their coat length and just to do with each individual personality. 🤷‍♀️ If your girl isn’t dominant at all, then likely she would get along with most other dogs.

Sweetie Pie Pets How do you know if your dog is dominant? I remember the breeder telling me, “this one has a mind of her own,” and I sort of suspect she does have a dominant personality, but I’ve never had a Chihuahua before. To be safe it seems a male puppy would be the correct choice. I see you with your little pack of dogs and I want my baby to have a playmate. Really am grateful to you for you expert advice! Thank you!

I just got my teacup male pup on the 12th. Your channel has been perfect for me on potty training. Finding a coat, harness, and leash for the harness, for a tiny male is tough. Do you know of any good sites other than Amazon? Thank you

@SweetiePiePets 3 года назад

Hello, congratulations on your new sweetie pie. I’m very excited for you. I do nearly all of my shopping on amazon but I have also had some success at petsmart in their weasel section. You might be able to find a weasel harness that fits your baby boy. Good luck to you ❤️

At what age do they go through puberty?

@samchu5890 3 года назад

I have 3 Chihuahuas. 2 males and 1 female. Girl are better. Boys like to mark their territory. So they spray all over the place.

I lost first and only dog, my sweet little Pomeranian last week. I have my heart set on a Chihuahua. I am going for a female Chihuahua because my first dog was a male, plus I am a mom of 2 boys lol My question is there a reason why a litter would have more boys than a girl? Is that why girls tend to be more expensive? Thank you!!

@SweetiePiePets 4 года назад

sokiexo hello, thanks for the question. Generally the girls are more expensive than the boys because they are in higher demand. There’s a miss perception that girl Chihuahuas make better pets than boy Chihuahuas so many buyers insist on getting only girls. I very rarely hear of buyers who insist on a boy so sometimes they’re a little less expensive. The boy vs. girl birth rate generally averages out to be 50/50. Hope that helps.

@fineartlifestyling 3 года назад

Actually the sex will delineate certain differences in character traits just like they do in humans. Biology and science are factual. The only reason you do not see that much of a difference between girl/boy in the canine species is because your dogs and the majority of North American (Western world) neuter or spay their dogs. This essentially renders the male dog docile, calm, and more like the female temperament. Their testes are no longer functional and they no longer secrete testosterone, the main defining hormone of what delineates male character traits.

@bullfrog5037 Год назад

What age is puberty for a Chihuahua male. And for females, if you get them spayed after their first season, will it make any difference, as for as house breaking them.

@SweetiePiePets Год назад

For girls, no. It’s best to wait until they are about a year to get them spayed. Typically they have already had their first heat by then. For a girl, puberty hits anywhere from six months to a year, but typically it’s around eight months. For a boy, it’s a little different. It’s best to get them fixed around seven or eight months because that’s usually when they start going through puberty and you do not want them to experience that because it’s very likely to start them on the habit of marking, so for boys I recommend getting them fixed around age 6-8 months before puberty!
