Hairless Dog Breeds and How to Care for Them

7. Hairless Chihuahua

Hairless Chihuahuas are not considered an official breed. Some Chihuahua breeders purposefully breed Chihuahuas without fur, but many are a result of over breeding in an attempt to produce specific coloring in furred Chihuahua's coats. They are cute and often favored by dog lovers with allergies, and they behave similarly to regular Chihuahuas. They are loyal with lots of energy, but as with Chihuahuas, they can sometimes snap at children or strangers that they find threatening. A big attitude in a little body, they have lots of bark and can be quite temperamental.
