Chihuahuas sticking out their tongues are often mistaken as a sign of cuteness, but they may actually be a warning signal from their bodies. Due to their small size and poor body temperature regulation, their tongue sticking out may be due to overheating or nervousness. In addition, respiratory diseases, oral problems, etc. may also cause tongue sticking out. Therefore, owners should pay attention to the behavior of their Chihuahuas. If symptoms such as frequent tongue thrusting and shortness of breath occur, they should seek veterinary assistance immediately to avoid delaying treatment.

The main reason why Chihuahuas have bulging eyes is due to the structure of their skull. Their skulls are small, but their eyes are relatively large, so their eyes appear to be more prominent. Although this feature is cute, it can also easily cause eye diseases, such as corneal ulcers and eyeball prolapse. Therefore, owners should pay attention to their Chihuahua’s eye health, check them regularly, and avoid exposing them to sharp objects.

The intelligence of Chihuahuas has always been a hotly debated topic. Although they are small in size, their intelligence cannot be underestimated. They have keen observation skills, can quickly learn new commands, and can communicate with their owners through their eyes and body language. Therefore, the IQ of Chihuahuas is by no means lower than that of other dog breeds. What they need is patience and correct training methods to realize their potential.
