Are Chihuahuas easy to housebreak?
My experience has been that it is a little tougher to get a Chihuahua housebroke than it is a bigger bred. It takes diligence, patience, and lots of paper towels!! It can be done, though. It is up to the new owner to carefully watch their new puppy’s behavior to see when they are looking for a spot to potty and to take them out on a regular basis. There needs to be lots of rewards when the job is done outside. Chihuahuas don’t like the cold weather, so it is much tougher in the winter months to train a puppy to go outside. I have had several clients train their new pups to litter boxes. All the pups leave here pad trained, and possibly outside trained if the weather is warm.
