I hate how everybody thinks that Chihuahuas are "mean" "yappy" or "ankle biters". It's not the dogs fault that the owner has no idea how to train them.
First off just remember they are DOGS not children or fashion accessories! I love, loving my dogs but they are not spoiled rotten. You need to put just as much training into a Chihuahua as any other breed of dog. Never let them outside unsupervised because big birds could snatch them. Socialize her/him very early on with other dogs, children, and plenty of people. They are very fragile so you need to "chihuahua proof" everything. Make sure that you have steps if your bed sits up high etc...
I would personally crate train her/him because they are very hard to potty train. Do NOT use puppy pads or paper train them. They need to go outside. If it's cold where you live then by them a winter jacket. They do need exercise, but not a lot. I would say a half hour walk a day, but break it into two seperate walks. For example one 15 minute walk in the morning and one at night. I give my Chi's a bath every month and clip their nails about every two weeks.
Just remember that you need to have a lot of patience and don't treat them like babies because that is when they get "yappy" or "mean". Good luck :) I hope you enjoy having your new doggie.

How Do I Keep My Dog warm?
Nic
I have a small Terrier chihuahua inside dog who i have put a little jacket on. He still seems to shiver everyday even in the afternoon. Is there anyway to warm him up without a heater?
Answer
A nice dog pillow and lots of blankets to snuggle with when in the house. When going out, stick with a nice warm sweater or long sleeve fleece and blankets.
It's hard to keep a small dog like that warm. Mine is buried under the blanket up against me right now on the couch. When we go to bed, he'll be in-between us and under the blankets. I have small blankets on the couch in the living room, down in the rec room, in the dining room on his nap pillow....all around the house. Maybe a nice crate that you don't even have to close the door to, just to keep snug and warm with a towel around it so no drafts.
