The Chihuahua's origins are from the Mexican state of Chihuahua and it is generally considered one of the smallest dog breeds on Earth. The Chihuahua comes in two versions, one with a long coat and the other with a smooth-short coat. Both versions have smooth coats that are easy to maintain with the most common Chihuahua coat colours are red/white, black/tan and fawn. Another characteristic of the Chihuahua is that they generally carry their tail high above their backs. Despite their small stature Chihuahua's are generally revered as fearless as they don't back down from dog breed that are larger than themselves. Chihuahua's are lively and enjoy their exercise. Small enough for suburban living, the Chihuahua makes a good watch dog and an even better companion.
