How to Prevent Chihuahua Puppies Problems
It is much easier to prevent problems in your Chihuahua puppy than correct them. The most common problems are the following:
Nipping
As Chihuahua puppies start to teethe, they feel the need to sink their teeth into anything available... unfortunately, that includes your fingers, arms, hair and toes. You may find this behavior cute for the first five seconds... until you feel just how sharp those puppy teeth are. This is something you want to discourage immediately and consistently with a firm "No!". Then, replace your finger with an appropriate chew toy. Your Chihuahua does not mean any harm with a friendly nip, but he also does not know that his friendly nip can hurt.
Crying/Whining
Your pup will often cry, whine, whimper or howl when he is alone. This is basically his way of calling out for attention to make sure that you know he is there and that you have not forgotten about him. He feels insecure when he is left alone, when you are out of the house and he is in his crate or when you are in another part of the house and he cannot see you. You cannot train the dog to stop making noise, you should train him to feel comfortable when he is alone and thus removing the need for him to make the noise.
This is where the crate with cosy bedding and a toy come in handy. It is extremely important that the crate is never used as a form of punishment, or the pup will have a negative association with the crate.
Accustom the pup to the crate in short, gradually increasing intervals in which you put him in the crate, maybe with a treat, and stay in the room with him. If he cries or makes a fuss, do not go to him, but stay in sight. Gradually, he will realize that staying in his crate is all right without your help and it will not be so traumatic for him when you are not around.
Chewing
Chewing goes hand in hand with nipping since a teething puppy is always looking for a way to soothe his aching gums. In this case, instead of chewing on you, he may like to chew on your favorite shoe or something else that he should not be chewing. This is a normal canine behavior that does need to be discouraged, only redirected. Your Chihuahua just needs to be taught what is acceptable to chew on and what is off limits. Consistently tell him NO when you catch him chewing on something forbidden and give him a chew toy.
Conversely, praise him when you catch him chewing on something appropriate. In this way, you are discourging the inappropriate behavior and reinforcing the desired behavior. The puppy's chewing should stop after his adult teeth have come in, but an adult dog continues to chew for various reasons - maybe because he is bored, needs to relieve tension or just likes to chew.
