Do you have a new puppy? And does she bite too hard?
Puppies are going to bite. It's part of their survival skills needed in the wild. But, you don't want her biting your fingers, right? With her little razor sharp teeth!
Well, with consistency and time, I can show you how to get your puppy to stop. The first part is to determine for yourself how much or how hard you will allow her to play bite.
Yes, it doesn't have to be all or nothing. Some play biting, playing tug of war, rough housing, is totally fine. But you will need to teach her what's acceptable.

a beautiful lady drinking red wine and hanging out with her chihuahua’s? you’re everything I want to be! 😂❤️
my name is tara okay 🐶😍🍷😍 😂😂😂! Get your sweetie pie and have a glass of wine with me and mine 😊 then it’ll be 2 pretty ladies!!
Me toooooo!!!
Living the dream!! ❤️
She is so hard to train
Found your channel a month before getting my puppy. She's been with me for 2 days, and she's 4 months. She's already benefiting so much of your tips! so am I
Yay, I'm so happy to hear my videos have been helpful to you and your sweetie pie. Congratulations on your new baby. ❤️
You have an amazing personality that I admire. I love the way you explain everything.. You don't just sit behind a desk and talk, You actually show us. A lot of people learn better with your video's because you are so hands on & you made me feel like there's hope. I just found your video's but i've had my chihuahua a month she was born oct 1st and already i'm feeling like maybe i'm not cut out for training a chihuahua after all. But i don't want to fail her so i'll watch all your video's. Thank you for not being boring.. And you are adorable...
I babysat a miniature toy chihuahua for three weeks. His name was Charlie. I will never forget Charlie. My first encounter with Charlie was wow are u a real dog? His look set me down. Charlie was so much fun. At the time I lived on 160 acres and lost my beloved dog to a complication. Anyway the animals were encroaching, I looked at Charlie and said " You may be little but u still pee like a dog". Away we went. We would race across the big front yard together, and I would reverse my backpack stuff him inside and trapse into the field. The stubble was bigger then Charlie. He loved every minute of it. I have wanted a Chihuahua ever since. Love u Charlie, I know ur gone now but my heart is with U. Thank u!
Good to know. I’ve had 3 chihuahuas and none of them bit. I honestly didn’t know it was a problem. Thank you so much for the tips.
She’s adorable
Ikr! My whole family loves her 🐶❤️
I love the way you communicate with your sweetie pies
Brian Strawder 😆 thank you. For some reason chihuahuas seem to respond well to “baby talk”.... or maybe I just like to talk to them like they’re babies 😂
I’m a chipoo papa and I’m cracking up at your tone bc she really gives me a love/annoyed/frustrated balance being so cute and sweet and then a demon dog lol aaaah. Thanks for putting in this work, it’s encouraging
😂😂😂 yes absolutely I know the feeling. It’s a good thing she’s so cute 🥰 keep up the patience and consistency and she will be a wonderful companion for many many years
I got my cutie September. He was 8 weeks old. Anyway I’ve been saying no bite since then and now he is 5 months old. He hasn’t completely stopped biting but he has gotten a lot better. He’s so adorable. He’s a dear head. So cute. I can’t stop kissing him and everyone in the house feels the same way ❤. I try to teach him to sit by doing the push him backwards with a treat like you showed in your video but so far he’s just too excited to do it. So cute 😂. I have him in a crate that I bought from chewy with a little fence around it. He sleeps in his crate at night because I’m so afraid he will fall off my bed. Anyway I also bought a pan that has a dip in the front so he can walk in and do pee pee. I put a pad in it. I love the setup I have and so does he. He plays all day around the house and sleeps all night. He comes out of his crate pees on his own and goes right back to sleep. I’m very surprised and happy that he learned all of this so fast. So cute 🥰. Once in awhile he’ll have an accident and pee because he’s playing so hard and forgets. So cute 🥰 anyway we love him to death ❤😂😍😘🥰😃😂
😍😍😍 he is a treasured sweetie pie and will bring you love and joy for years to come
You're so funny and the advice is much appreciated!
This is PERFECT timing!!!
My 4 month old is in the biting stage,
And she bites so hard on "dad" that she's drawing blood! (Of course, he likes to get her riled up, even though I keep TELLING him NOT to!!!😡😡😡)
I have been telling her ,"No. No bite." and have been giving her a chew toy instead!
It's good to know that I'm doing ig correctly!
THANK YOU, KELLY!
(Now if I can figure out how to get DAD to listen!🙄🙄🙄)
I learn a lot from your videos they make my world a better place to live in love them all
Maria Lacsamana I’m so glad you find my videos helpful. Thank you for letting me know ❤️
All great advice as usual. My little 1 yo white short haired chi sweetie pie Luna occasionally likes to bite and fight. I just tell her I don't want a fighter or a biter and like you say, give her a toy she can do this with. Actually, her bites are very gentle as long as I do not resist but I don't want her doing this with any of my visitors, lol!
Lol! A fighter or a biter is a good saying.
I'm glad my advice helped, hopefully Luna will stop her biting ways! 🤗
Thank you! We just adopted a 2 year old Chi and he loves play bitting. We've been following these steps and yout video gives us reassurance.
Athara26 yay!!! Stick with it, he will get it. It took Sabrina about 6 months of consistency and now she never bites me. She’s still naughty with the other dogs through chasing them around biting their ankles 🙄 learning respect for the other sweetie pies will be our next project. 😂
Don’t give up on your boy. Patience, leadership and a strong bond are key. The more he trusts you, the more he will want to please you. Good luck 👍🏻 🐶😍
@@SweetiePiePets Thank you ❤ It has been a rollercoaster but, overall, he is such a good boy. Can't wait to see the video about respecting the other sweetie pies:)
We just picked up our lil' girl. Thank you for your videos, they have been super helpful preparing for our little one!
You are so welcome. Congratulations on your little sweetie pie
I love all the information that you give about chihuahuas
I am ready to bring a chihuahua puppy home for my birthday in February. Im so excited and can't wait!! Ive been watching videos on RUclips but i have found your videos the most informative do i have instantly subscribed 😉 even though I have had a chihuahua before he was a mix with a little Jack Russell. I'm not sure if there will be much difference with a full breed chihuahua but im more than happy to learn as much as i can before i bring my fur baby home. Thank you for your videos ❤xxx
You are so welcome 🤗 I’m glad you find my content helpful. Best of luck to you and your new sweetie pie ❤️
@@SweetiePiePets 💕💕💕
I've literally been studying your channel, leading up to getting my sweetie pie, Ozzie. Thank you soooooo much.
You are so welcome and best of luck to you and little Ozzie ❤️
You’re so helpful I get my first chihuahua puppy in July!
Oh my gosh I'm so excited for you ❤️🤗Congratulations.
Sweetie Pie Pets thank you! Do you have a video on just toys I should get?
I was gong to yet mine in July as well but the current owner said we can pick him up today but his stuff hasn't arrived so I'm getting him this Saturday!!! Hope you have fun with your Chihuahua puppy as well.
I want to be the crazy "Hippy" lady with "10" Chihuahuas, that is my dream and so it will be!! Love you Kelly, you are so glamour!!
😍😂😍You sound like a fun lady to hang out with! Follow your dreams and become that happy hippy crazy Chihuahua lady!!! 🐶❤️
Grace van Eeden LOL I’m not the crazy hippy Chihuahua lady but we are the crazy hippy “dog” couple who has 9 dogs!!! One is a Chi, a Boston Terrier, a Beagle, a Walker Coon Hound, a Rat Terrier, & 4 Mix Breeds. Six of these sweet babies are rescues that were dropped out on our road, we found them, brought them home & have had them ever since. They are all happy dogs now & well fed. 😘💕🥰
SHE LOOKS LIKE MY LITTLE BABY. HARD TO TELL THE DIFFERNCE. LOVE THIS VIDEO ALSO. LOVE THEM. KEEP ON KEEPING ON THESES WONDERFUL VIDEOS.
It's so nice to see Sabrina they're my life , my inspiration esp. In this trying times thanks Kelly
Exactly ❤️ I love them now more than ever 🥰
I love your advice. Thank You for sharing your video.
Yes I have one! Chihuahua cross, male, yes chew toys everywhere. No bite is always but he's made me bleed four times. I believe that was my fault. He's four months now getting a little better, but yes I keep telling M, that's his name that I'm the boss....patience. Thank you!!!
Lori Shelstad good job!! 👍🏻 keep up your consistency and keep letting him know you’re the boss just like that. Good job 👏🏻 thank you for being a wonderful chihuahua mama. Keep up the good work and give M a hug from me and Margo ❤️
Thanks for the great advice, I guess I'm probably not going to change my dominant 9 week old in a matter of days. Patience while being calm and assertive is a great approach.
🙌🏻 yes!!! Right now she’s the equivalent of a human toddler so just be consistent and she will eventually understand ❤️
I really enjoy your Chihuahua videos very, very much I'm a proud owner of one I would love to have more in the future I watch your videos every week thanks a looot!!!
Maria Lacsamana you are so welcome. I’m super happy to hear you’re getting something out of my videos. I appreciate your encouragement. Thank you. ❤️

I love your babies 💜
So sweet 🐾
Free2be MeBarbie I’ll give them extra love today and tell them it’s from you 😍😊
Love all your vids
I'm glad you like them! 🐶❤️
I have a male - he has a strong need to bite and destroy everything in site. I have lots of chew toys with different textures - still he prefers me. I have tapped him on the mouth when he bites and say no - it does "slow him down" I know how to deal with chewing my previous dogs Irish Jack Russells - major chewers - however my Chihuahua wins ... I pray for his continued learning daily. My skin can't take much more. Whaaaa
I love 💕💕 all of your puppies, if I could only afford one
Thank you so much for your video! You've been very helpful!
Glad it was helpful! 👍
Loved this
Thanks!! It’s fun!! ❤️🐕🥰
I just got Qupid Quin (God of Love) a little over a week ago. He is a 9 week male (dominant) I had to really work with him on rolling him onto his back - he did not like that until I scratched his belly LOL. He is an animal - he runs around like a crazy man, very smart and funny. After having two Irish Jack Russells I found I am really ready to train him. I already have him playing fetch with "get it" and "come" WOW like I said smart.
I’ve learned so much from you! Thank you so very much!! And you always make me smile! 😃
my three month old deerhead chihuahua wont stop chewing and biting on people and items and i feel like ive tried everything. its been a month and it can be very discouraging when you see no difference. when i say "no bite" he begins to lunge and ignore his toy but I'll continue to be consistent with training methods
Yes consistency is important, best of luck
thank you Kellie it was a very helpful video for some people bc ii cant afford a puppy so I am ur number 1 fan forever
skye rogerson oh my goodness you are going to be an expert and then when you finally get a puppy, you’ll already know all the tricks 😎👍🏻
Brilliant 👍😊
My Chihuahua has shown many sign that he would be a great medical alert dog for me but, he has quite a few unwanted behaviors for a service dog how can I get them out of him
Hello, to eliminate unwanted behaviors, it might be good to get some training classes. I hope it works out that he can be a medical alert dog for you.
Loved it
Thank you! 🐶😍
OMG! Thank you so much for making this video. Great information that I will begin using immediately. My little Luna is a biter when playing. However, there are times when she bites so sweetly and softly. Do you think it’s okay to let her do this?
It's pretty normal for them to tease each other with soft bites so as long as she always keeps them soft and loving, I would just let her do it.
linsam1962 Our year and a half old male Chi does the same thing. We play with him and he bites when playing but when he bites to hard or gets too rough we say “ no you’re biting too hard or you’re playing too rough” , we also stop playing if he doesn’t stop being too rough & tell him why we stopped playing, they’re smart so they catch onto it pretty quick. He still gets excited or carried away playing sometimes & gets too rough so we have to call him out on it with “ you’re playing too rough” , he usually calms it down & also the same with biting too hard. It amazes me how smart he is. Good luck!!!!
Diane Oliver he sounds like a very smart sweetie pie indeed 😍
Sweetie Pie Pets Will do. Thank you. 🐶
Diane Oliver Thank you, Diane! 🐶
Thank you 😊 I have the same tea cup and she bites a lot I’m going too try this method before this method my mom gave advice to you a water spray bottle like if my tea cup was a cat 🐈 lol It worked for few times but I would like to try this instead my tea cup is 12 weeks old much appreciated
Thank you so Much for Doing this Video Because Tito my Puppy is biting me everyday 😭 This will help So much Have a Magical Week
⚫🎀⚫❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
JAMIE'S DIZNEY KINGDOM 😱 naughty Titi!!! 😂 You’re so welcome and I hope it helps. Hugs! 🐶 ❤️
@@SweetiePiePets Hug's ❤️
😍Margo and Sabrina.😘 I did exactly what you said ,with Dempsey. However, he does a kind of pretend 'I'm going to bite your nose ' , when he wants me to play. He sits on the arm of my chair or on my shoulder a lot and when he's bored with snoozing or looking out of the window he stands really close to my face and stares at me.😂😂 I ignore him so he gives a little whimper, then I ignore him again he does his daft noises and sometimes gives a big sigh. I love it! If he catches a hint of a smile that's his signal for tail wagging ,bouncing around and putting his mouth to the end of my nose. I do my scary Zombie growl and he runs around the furniture.😂😂 One happy Trish and one happy Dempsey. Sometimes I start the playtime off, by doing a deep voice ' Here I'm coming to get you!' Because of how we bonded he has been easy to train. He's so funny. Love to you all. Keep safe 💖🙋🐶
EXCELLENT!!! Dempsey is the lucky boy with a playful mama 😍😍! He absolutely LOVES his pack leader 🐶❤️ that bond though! Nothing compares to the human/chihuahua bond 😍😍😍
Trish Traynor lol Oh my gosh, how cute! As I read your comment, my brain was picturing it, like video 😀👍🏼 are you a writer?? Like author or journalist.
Our chihuahua Doby whimpers and whines. it’s not annoying, but really unique and soft.
Does your chihuahua rub the side of his face and neck on your face? Ours started that months back when he was 4 months lol it’s cute and good lil sweetie pie lovings!
I’m asking questions because I’m curious what part is chihuahua and which part is personality lol
@@Audrey-fu7bi He stands on my chest with my mouth lined up with the back of his ear, and I whisper to him what a clever boy he is, and make up stories for him. If I stop talking he licks my nose then goes right back to his original position for more whispers. He makes me laugh so much. I have never, ever raised my voice to him. What would be the point of scaring him and breaking his spirit?.
Trish Traynor so precious, our pup does almost exactly that! How adorable it’s a chihuahua thing!
Training of all dogs, chihuahua's also, is extremely important.
💯
Your great
Thank you, James! I really appreciate the channel support. ☺️
I love your personality ❤ I have question. How do you know if your chihuahua puppy will be long or short hair?
SincerelySara OOOOO!!! Excellent question! Stay tuned and I will make a video about it. 😍
Love your videos & of course your adorable fur babies!!! I have a question, our Chihuahua is a year & a half & he has this habit of scratching us when we’re on our phone or watching TV when he wants our attention, how do we break him from scratching us, ( it kinda hurts & leaves scratches)???? Also we had him neutered when he was 7 mo., he was already hunching his toys, thought neutering would stop it but he still does it, any way to stop it?? He is the cutest funniest little guy, has so many funny little quirks & habits; he keeps us laughing. Love your videos they’re so informative.
Our pup is a scratcher, too, but I have asked a lot of questions, so I felt bad asking more. So happy you asked 😂 Great questions!
@@Audrey-fu7bi Both of our 5 month Chihuahuas SCRATCH our arms and legs. They are very active and continue to play " fight and bit" with us. I am going to have their nails professionally done ( dremel tool).
I know it's a bit pricey, but well worth it.
I can clip their nails without any problem BUT their nails are sharper than ever!!!
Linda Masson I understand. I know they make nail caps for cats, to keep them from scratching, but I have no clue about dogs or if that would even work.
I hope filing helps, you will have to let us know. Maybe I’ll try it.
My chihuahua is too feisty for clipping and filing but I have managed to clip his front nails (a few times) over 2 days time haha! Might have to take him to a groomer when they open again.
I wondered about Pet Smart, they supposedly do nails.
@@Audrey-fu7bi Yes, Petco also. We are lucky to have a great GROOMER ( we have Schnauzers also). When you call to schedule an appointment, ASK first thing if the GROOMER uses a dremel tool on pups nails!!!! Call in your area, be sure to let them know you want nails trimmed with a DREMEL TOOL ONLY.
Wishing you the best.
Linda Masson thank you! I wish you the best, too!
Great vid
Thank you so mich! Appreciate it.
Tips for teaching a chi puppy to come when called?
I haven’t watch all of your videos yet., So I don’t know if you already made this one or not., I want to see all of our Chihuahuas and their names. Please make a video like that. Thanks 😍
Well, we don't necessarily have just one video naming and introducing all of them at once but each video shows their name and dog! Maybe I'll make a video like this in the future! 😁👍
I keep thinking she's going to knock over that glass of wine !
Christine Morris I haven’t done it yet but I’m sure it’ll happen some day. I’ll try to capture it on camera when I do 😆
Hi Kelly, luv this tutorial….this works as I’ve done it with only a couple of my Chis & once they learn this they can do the same with treats & then learn to “wait” for the “OK” release word for feeding time….It is consistency & once they learn it they are the better for it. Also stuff less toys are a good play toy as well. They can go to bed with their favorite 1 or 2, LOL 🦴🐾🐾🐾🐾🦴
Love it 😊 thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Hi, I just found your channel a few days ago. We have a 14 week old sweetie Pie named Koda. He is awesome, but has the issue of biting. I have been binge watching and was just saying to my husband I did not see a video on biting and then this popped up in my notifications. I am on the right track, the issue is the other members of the home thinking it is funny to get him to bite. ugh. I also have an escape artist, any suggestions on that topic? Thank you for this channel.
Yvette Betzwieser oh wonderful, I’m so glad you joined sweetie pie pets ❤️ I hope this technique works well for Koda. Yes you’re so right, the whole house needs to be consistent with his training so he is not confused! Hopefully everyone can get on board with his training.
Koda’s an escape artist, huh? I’ve had a few of those myself. Are you looking for crate solutions that are inescapable? Or just to in general find ways to deal with his wanderlust? If you need an inescapable crate, my favorite is this one: amzn.to/2QeFygZ
If he’s just a curious boy in search of adventure,, I recommend to leash train him and take him out on plenty of adventures with his family. Turn it into a positive activity with his entire “pack”. We enjoy bike rides and walks which help them exert plenty of energy!
I hope that helps. Give Koda a snuggle from me and my sweetie pies! 🐶❤️
@@SweetiePiePets Thank you for getting back to me. I actually have one of those fences on order and should be here on Friday (ordered after I saw in your video). I hope that he can not figure out how to climb out of this one. I believe his issue is he does not like to be left alone, (luckily for him, I don't like leaving him alone, but sometime you just need to) that seems to be the only time he tries. Thank you again for all of your knowledge and experience.
Thank you for this. I'm experiencing it with my 3 months chi. It's not too late to train her, right?
Haha my rock is like a piranha my poor fingers
Rudy Franco 😆 their little teeth are so painful!!! Is your sweetie pie’s name “rock”? Lol
My female 2 month old chihuahua likes to get on me and paw and bite at my face and neck. I do as you said and she hasn't gotten any gentler. Her claws and teeth hurt as you know i'm sure.
Be patient and consistent. 2 months is very young, the age of a human baby and so she will need consistent training as she continues to grow and develop into the toddler age. Getting a puppy is a very big commitment. It can take up to a year of consistent training before they fully understand their boundaries. Keep up the good work 👍
You are hilarious I love your videos I’m happy you recommended red wine while training. If it doesn’t work just get drunk and lay on the floor n your puppy rule 😂
😂🍷🐶
My boy were awful biter when he was puppy... everyday my hands were full of scars and new small wounds...
little devil... 😅😂
so every time when he started to bite too hard I made little sound, quit the play and left the room for while.
Dogs don`t want to hurt their pack members so he will understand to be more gentle if you show him
" stop you hurt me, dont bite me so hard " and quit the play. Keep repeating it until dog will get the hang of it.
It will take time
at least doing this made him stop biting and nowadays he play gently
So I have a Pomeranian who is use to being the only dog and now we just got an 8 week old teacup chihuahua and my Pomeranian refuses to play with her... like running away, staying on the couch, not coming down while she’s running around. What can I do? I want them both to love each other and play together... thank you 🙏🏾
Hey there, so first off, don’t loose heart. Usually it takes time and eventually, they become best friends.I recommend to ignore the Pom while you get down on the floor with the baby. Feed the baby tiny bites of finely chopped chicken from your hand. Eventually the Pom will want some so badly she will likely join you on the floor. When she does, share the tiny pieces with her too. But ONLY when she’s playing nice.
Sweetie Pie Pets thank you soooo much!! I’m so excited to try! I love your content btw, always makes me smile 😊
@@badgebunny87 let me know how it goes. 🤗
AWSOME video
Thank you so much for watching it and supporting my channel. I appreciate hearing from you.
I have a new Chihuahua puppy Lexi. She’s my first Chi and she’s only 9 weeks old. I love her so much! I’m having trouble getting her to sleep in a crate. She wants to be with me all the time and of course the potty training is not going very well because of it. How can I get her used to being in a crate without crying?
Tamara Petrie hello and congratulations on your new sweetie pie. So first off, keep in mind that nine weeks is still very young and she may well need a lot more time to adjust to her new surroundings. Likely she’s used to being with her mommy and littermates all the time and this is the first time she’s had to learn self soothing techniques. It can take several weeks before they become comfortable being in a crate alone.
Give her lots of reassurance and love and a little baby talk (mine seem to love that for some reason) but when it is bedtime, put her in her crate and let her cry it out. If you come in to check on her when she’s crying, that reinforces the crying so I recommend as long as you know she’s safe that you just let her cry it out until she gives up. Usually about three days of that and they stop crying in their crate.
You also need to make sure she’s eating enough calories to make up for all the energy she spending complaining 😆. Make sure to keep Nutra Cal on hand and to monitor her daily intake.
Hope I answered your question and good luck to you and your sweetie pie 🐶❤️
Sweetie Pie Pets thanks so much for your advice. I’m going to try it! I love your channel!
Tamara Petrie Try getting a Baby Blanket and keep it next to you a lot during the day so it picks up your scent & put it in Lexi’s bed with her at night. Also get a small stuffed animal that is made for a baby or dog so it doesn’t have eyes, nose etc... that she can choke on, & do the same as with blanket & put that in her bed too for her to cuddle with. Make sure her bed is in a warm area away from air vents, away from fans & direct contact of air conditioning, Chis like to be warm but not hot. Try these things & hope they help. Good luck with your new baby.😘💕🥰😍♥️
My chihuahua nam is yoda
Thomas fan 21 please tell Yoda that Sabrina says hello 🐶❤️
Apollo only bites during play time. When he does this I say no, he will stop and look at me, then I give him a treat.
He is 7mos now and he still play bites but stops when I tell him to.
Cara Dion what a good boy ❤️❤️
Let’s get the algorithm going! 🥰👍🏽🤩
She was whooping Sabrina's ass thats how she stopped that 😂
Awe, that would be so sad and if I did that, Sabrina would never trust me again! I love the feeling I get when my dogs trust me because I know I had to earn their trust. I always try to keep in mind, it’s the human’s job to be a good pack leader.
I need to find advice on stopping an adult rescue chihuahua from biting when he’s scared or mad.
My advice is lots, and lots, and lots of patience and calm assertive leadership demonstrated by you, his human pack leader. He has obviously been neglected or abused, and has a lot of trauma to work through. Punishing him or yelling at him when he does, this will only increase the behavior. He hast to learn to trust and respect humans, and that can only be done through consistent, kindness, patience, and gentle love ❤️
Hi, I recently I adopted a Chihuahua. She is just 8 weeks old and she is showing so much aggressiveness I am shocked! As soon as I pick her up she starts growling and bitting! I put her down so she can calm down and hold her up again and there we go....growling and bitting. I am extremely concerned she will grow up like this. Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Greats video
Thanks so much, Tom. So glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the channel support. 🐶😍
I just picked up my chihuahua yesterday and I already love her so much!! She whimpers whenever I leave the room so I have to stay there until she falls asleep 😅🥺 her name is Latte and she’s the sweetest girl 🥰🥺
Awe❤️❤️❤️ so precious!!! She already loves her mama so much 😍😍 Latte sounds like a very special girl indeed 🐶❤️
Sweetie Pie Pets Yes!! 😍
Kaylee Wisman She’s already got her Mama wrapped around her tiny little paw!!! LOL You are in for the most wonderful journey of your life & she will become pretty much the most important “person” in your life. Talk to her the same as you would a person & when you scold her or tell her NO explain why you scolded her or said NO. The more you talk to her the more she will understand & learn, Chihuahuas are very smart. They are also very funny & will keep you laughing with her antics, and they are impossible to get or stay mad at cause they’re so cute & adorable. Congratulations on your new Baby Chi, enjoy the journey! LOL♥️💙💜💚😍😘
Omg so cute dogo
Thank you 🐶😍
Sweetie Pie Pets your welcome
I have chew toy in my hand and she goes after my hand saying No and saying no bite doesn’t work what do I do?
To be honest if I followed all you do I would be so zapped after the wine I probably would'nt care if they bit me hahahaha
Lol, no biting allowed
I have 4 kids (2 are 2 year old twins) and she has been getting aggressive (biting and growling) a bit after she got her first vaccines which is fine and now when she feels maybe closed in or like my toddler twins are being too rough . How do I make sure it doesn’t continue ? I also know I need to teach the boys that the biting isn’t her being funny and that it means to get away. But I want the dog to like everyone and don’t want her growing to not like the twins. Also, her ears arnt sticking up and she’s 12-14 weeks says the vet
Hello, I recommend to keep her in a little habitat area similar to the setup in this video: UPDATE: Potty Training your Chihuahua 100% Fool Proof Method | Sweetie Pie Pets by Kelly Swift

She is trying to tell the 2 year olds she wants space but they are all 3 having difficulty communicating with each other since they’re all babies.
Her own little habitat area will help her feel safe and in control.
Then bring her out of the habitat enclosure 3-4 times per day for 10 minute training session. She must wear a harness and a leash for the sessions so you have control of her. Have the kids sit down on the floor and remind them to be calm and quiet. Sudden moves and loud noises are scary to a tiny dog. Give the kids tiny prices of chopped chicken to hand her as rewards for being good and following commands. At first she won’t know how to follow any commands, but that’s the point of the training sessions. She needs to learn to trust everyone in the family, including the two year olds. These sessions will help. Keep it calm, positive and consistent and she will eventually get it.
I want to breed my 2.5 pound chihuahua Midge, she has a beautiful fa ce! What do you think?
Hello, it’s very, very risky to breed such a small female. I have 19 years experience breeding chihuahuas and I wouldn’t breed a female that small.
Thankyou Kelly, I just weighed Midge again and she is now 3.2 pounds. Do you think this is a better weight for breeding? I would only attempt with a long term mentor with the breed. I also take what you say very important and appreciate your experience and knowledge. Please let me know your thoughts. She is so gorgeous, but if you still feel risk involved, I will not pursue. Thank you Kelly...
Omg, we've had Nina for 2 months now and have worked with her everyday........ saying no bite but its like she attacks us she weighs 3 lbs a little chihuahua her bite is bigger than her size HELP!!!!
I have a Chihuahua pup she will be 6 weeks old on the 8th of September I'm texting her how to set at the moment and she is doing great but her Attention span is really short. how do I get her to pay attention?
Oh how fun!! So it’s best just to work within the confines of her attention span. Puppies have short attention spans just like kids do so keep her training sessions short for now. It’s more important for her to learn to LIKE the training sessions so keep them short, upbeat, and fun for now. As she has success, you can extend the time of each session. Best of luck ❤️
Thank you . She is already so smart but I know she can be at her full Potential . If you have anymore tips let me know thank you
Hi
I'm kinda wondering something. when two of my female dogs each hade a litter and they grew old enough to be by themselves we kept two males. they were half siblings because they hade the same dad and they used to love each other to death. and before I was forced to give them up they were constantly fighting, even after they were fixed. can u tell me why they went from loving each other more then anything to wanting to kill each other?
It sounds like they both wanted to be alpha male. If both boys have a dominant personality it will be very difficult for them to get along. If one had been a girl they likely would’ve gotten along better because dog etiquette allow for one dominant male and one dominant female
@@SweetiePiePets that dose make sense but I was kinda curious why it was still happening after getting them fixed. it was just kinda wierd to see them go from loving each other to wanting to kill each other.
@@rainbowlightning5156 yeah, even after getting fixed they still maintain their basic personality. I’ve had a few myself over the years that just do not get along. Years ago we got a dog named April and for whatever reason my Tina absolutely hated April. No matter what I did they would not get along. Eventually we had to rehome April because Tina just wasn’t having it 😢 Then we got a different dog named Jewel and she had a much more laid back personality. Jewel never tried to dominate Tina so the two of them got along just fine
@@SweetiePiePets so their views of each other will change overtime even tho they were fixed. That's so sad, I wish they got along
Omg I need help. My chihuahua is now 10 weeks old and won’t stop biting our hands. I yell No! And it makes him more angry and bite harder. We picked him up at 8 weeks so maybe it was too soon? Help please
Some of them are quite stubborn and strong willed and for those, i recommend getting him into some obedience classes right away. They offer classes at petco and a few other pet stores.

Shock collar. I'm dead serious if you get one that isn't pronged it works miracles
Hi Kelly. As usual I'm loving your fun informative videos!! I was wondering, Im getting my puppy chi in July, but Ive heard so much about chihuahua aggression. I really feel it may have a lot to do with how we raise them and a bit of personality. I was wondering whats your opinion and how to prevent it. Early socialization perhaps??
Hello Cybella bella and congratulations on getting your sweetie pie in July! I'm so excited for you.
Yes, early and consistent socialization is key to prevent a Chihuahua from developing bad habits. Hopefully you're getting your baby from a family breeder who hand raises their puppies and gives them tons of daily love and attention from day one. This is essential for trust building. Your Chihuahua needs to learn to trust humans - especially her own humans who she should also view as her pack leader. In the wild, the pack leader is well respected. Generally it's because they've EARNED the respect. You can earn that respect by doing trust building exercises with your sweetie pie from the moment she arrives. Talk softly and lovingly to her and show her the ropes. Correct her in a calm, assertive tone when she makes a mistake - but only if you catch her IN THE act. If you find she made a mistake when you didn't notice (such as making a tootsie roll behind the couch) just clean it up and act like you didn't notice. She won't understand the problem if you try to get after her later.
Dogs often follow the lead of their pack leader (you) so maintain that calm, positive energy, give her tons of love and affection, and she will WANT to do whatever you tell her.
Aggression often comes from unsocialized dogs who have never had good leadership.
I wish you and your sweetie pie all the best. 🐶❤️
@@SweetiePiePets Thank you so much!!
@@cybellabella6222 You're so welcome! 🤗
👍👍👍👍
Mine bites when I kiss her. Like attacks me and she’s at 7 weeks. Chew toys and all! I don’t know how to stop it because she’s so young.
How do I teach my dog to not eat her poop
Great idea
Oh poop!!! I hate when the eat it. 🙈Thank you so much on the video suggestion. I do need to address this. Here's the product I use: amzn.to/2UsaXO2
Sweetie Pie Pets thank you
Please give us 5 minutes of all of them together just doing their own thing.
Some of my videos do just that. We call them “crack videos” 😂

Why the wine and not water? Not a good look.
Who says it's wine? Look again!
Chihuahuas were bred from foxes 😮😮
I was scam by Adopt a playmate she claim she had a Yorkie and after I agree she come with dog on flight and sent email saying dog was stuck in Mexico and could I ay $580 insurance refundable and it didn't sound right to me so I wouldn't pay that but lost my money for the purchase of the dog
Oh my goodness I am so sorry to hear that. It is very scary to buy a puppy site unseen. There are so many scammers out there 😢
