There is only one breed of Chihuahua, but the variation within the breed is amazing. These tiny dogs have long coats, smooth coats, a diversity of coat colors, and even two distinct head shapes (an apple-shaped head or a deer-shaped head.). They weigh a feather-light 4-6 pounds, and stand only 6-10 inches tall. Chihuahuas are low-maintenance dogs when it comes to grooming, but they can be high-maintenance when it comes to training. They can become devoted to a single person and become protective, which can make living in a house with children a challenge. This isn't to say Chihuahuas can't make great family dogs, but the personality of the dog and the patience and training by the family are important factors. #CityPetsVets #YourPetsPersonalDoctor #NycHousecallVet #NycVeterinarian #Chihuahua #TinyDog #NycDogs #NycChihuahuas #SmallDogs

Did you know cats really do get stuck in trees? It's because they are built for climbing up, but not so much for climbing down. Their retractable claws are curved and their hind legs are stronger than their front, which makes them agile climbers going up, but that same physiology makes it difficult to maneuver down. #citypetsvets #yourpetspersonaldoctor #nychousecallvet #nycvets #nycveterinarians #catfacts #caturdayfacts #caturday #nyccats #catsofnewyork #catinatree
