Chihuahua + Dachshund Mix · Very small (5-12 lbs)
Chiweenies are one of the easiest designer breeds to groom. Smooth-coated Chiweenies need only regular baths, nail trims, and ear cleaning. Long-coated Chiweenies (from long-haired Dachshund or long-haired Chihuahua parents) need occasional brushing and light trimming. All Chiweenies need careful handling during grooming due to their long backs — never allow them to jump on or off grooming tables. Support the spine when lifting. Their tiny size means grooming sessions are quick and affordable. Focus on dental care, as both parent breeds are prone to dental disease.
