Ever since the Taco Bell commercials of a few years ago, the breed's popularity has increased. Unfortunately, people don't realize that those cute small dogs have quite a lot of energy and can be very feisty and nervous. They don't want to put in the work needed to train them.
As the owner of two bull headed Chihuahuas I can attest to the fact that they require time to train. Out of all the animals I have ever had, the Chi was the hardest to potty train...and as for sit, stay...well I have one that all she does is "look pretty" Ironically I live in Baltimore and had not heard anything in our local news and this isn't too far away. I pray that they find homes for all those babies
