To chihuahuas mouthing is just a way of expression - by taking your hand in his mouth for getting your attention, but in a far gentler way than a bite. Though mouthing is not biting, it can grow aggressive in your chiwawa to be tolerable. In addition, controlling this habit gets more and more challenging day-by-day so it is better to get rid of this habit at an early stage.

Mouthing can become a technique for chihuahua puppies to try to control you, permitting them to take that first step towards assuming a leadership role inside your house.Here are some steps that might help you to train and socialize your puppy.

Just like babies, a teacup chihuahua goes across the teething process. It is a common habit of puppies of all breeds to use their mouth to investigate the things around.

Be sure to give your chihuahua plenty of things he is permitted to chew on. Huge rawhide bones and carrots can be placed in the freezer and given to a teething puppy. Braided fiber bones dipped in chicken broth or water and then frozen are also a good option.

If your puppy is chewing on you, the moment the pressure increases use your "hurt puppy' noise leaving your hand in his mouth. Once the pressure is released, gradually remove your hand.

If you wish to have good relation with your long haired chihuahua simply treat him as you treat your child.

Praise the pup for his good habits. Pups respond eagerly and quickly to rewards that propel. You can also train him to act on your orders.

If your chihuahua puppy doesnt follow what you say, or is getting more and more nasty with people as well as you, its serious then. And he will continue doing the same until you train him not to.
