Special attention should be paid to raising Chihuahuas in summer. The weather is hot and there are many bacteria and parasites. Therefore, Chihuahuas are prone to heat stroke or infection of parasites and become sick. To ensure the health of Chihuahuas in summer, special care should be taken in terms of care. For questions about how to care, you can refer to the following:

First, no matter if you have a long-haired Chihuahua or a short-haired Chihuahua, you must keep doing it every day Comb the back hair. Short-haired Chihuahuas are easy to groom, but long-haired Chihuahuas will take longer to groom.

Second, be careful when brushing Chihuahuas, and the dust and dirt on the hair must be removed. At the same time, the hair that has fallen off but adhered to the dog fur should also be thoroughly cleaned.

Third, we do not advocate frequent bathing of Chihuahuas, but it is necessary to bathe them in time. In summer, according to the physical condition of the Chihuahua, it can be bathed once every 7-10 days. Simply put, Chihuahuas often go out to exercise, so the number of baths can be more frequent. Note that, especially for long-haired Chihuahuas, it is easy to stick to some dirty things on the hair, so be sure to brush and bathe it in time to clean it.

Fourth, when preparing food for Chihuahuas in summer, it must be fresh and delicious. In summer, all food is easily perishable, so check the freshness of the food before preparing it for Chihuahua. Those expired, rotten, and stale food cannot be eaten by Chihuahua.

Fifth, in addition to a healthy diet, prepare enough water for the Chihuahua every day. Likewise, the drinking water should be kept fresh. The water should be replaced in time, and the dog's water basin should also be cleaned and disinfected in time to ensure that Chihuahuas drink healthy water.

We do not advocate shaving Chihuahuas in summer, but proper trimming of long-haired Chihuahuas is fine. Note that the sweat glands of the Chihuahua are mostly concentrated on the soles of the feet, so the hair between the toenails must be trimmed in time to help the Chihuahua’s body dissipate heat, avoid heat stroke, and ensure the health and safety of the Chihuahua.
