Chico is a male chaweenie. Part chihuahua, mother was full chihuahua. Dad was dachshund. 8mo.old. Sweet, lovable, playfull. Paper trained, will go outside if u take him. I have become ill and cant take care of him as he should go on walks and play. Also my 2 larger dogs are not accepting him. Great watchdog. Minds very well. Would be easy to teach him tricks. Think he would do great with children old enough play with him.
