6 reasons why you should bring your Chihuahua to the salon regularly

Maintenance of skin and coat health
Regular professional grooming helps keep a Chihuahua's coat clean and healthy. Groomers use specialized shampoos and conditioners that provide optimal care for the dog's coat and skin, preventing skin problems.
Prevention of health problems
Groomers carefully examine your Chihuahua's skin, ears, eyes, and teeth during each visit. This allows timely detection of signs of infections or other health problems. Regular trimming of the claws prevents deformation of the paws, which is especially important for active and mobile breeds like the Chihuahua.
Melting control
Chihuahuas can shed a lot of fur, especially during shedding season. Regular grooming helps control shedding by reducing the amount of fur that settles on your furniture, clothes and floors.
Emotional well-being
Grooming can be enjoyable for your Chihuahua if done regularly and correctly. The grooming process includes massage, which promotes relaxation and improves the emotional state of your dog.
Socialization
Visiting the salon provides the Chihuahua with additional opportunities for socialization. Interaction with the groomer and other dogs at the salon can help your dog get used to different people and situations, which is an important part of their development.
Professional view
Regular visits to a professional keep your dog looking its best and ensure that any specific needs or problems with the coat or skin are identified and addressed in a timely manner. The Groomer can also provide helpful advice on home care for your Loyal Friend.

Chihuahua is one of the smallest dog breeds in the world, but at the same time it has one of the strongest characters. The origin of this breed traces its roots to the ancient civilizations of Mexico, and its name comes from the Mexican state of Chihuahua. These miniature dogs have pronounced personality traits and great affection for their owners. Chihuahuas are known for their bold and courageous nature, often forgetting their small size when faced with danger or defending their owners.

Characteristics of Chihuahuas include their diversity in appearance and a wide range of coat colors and textures. There are two main types of Chihuahua: short-haired and long-haired. Both types require regular grooming, although long-haired Chihuahuas may require more attention to keep their coats clean and healthy. These dogs are also known for their high energy and activity, which requires regular exercise and mental stimulation to avoid boredom and destructive behavior.

Chihuahua needs, in addition to regular exercise, include constant communication and attention from their owners. They are very attached to their owners and can experience separation anxiety, so it is necessary to give them enough time and attention. Chihuahuas also require careful health care, including regular vet visits and a controlled diet to prevent excess weight that can lead to health problems such as heart and joint problems.

Simple tips for caring for your Chihuahua

Regular brushing of a Chihuahua:
To keep your Chihuahua's fur always looking good, brush it regularly with a soft brush. This will not only help keep the coat clean and shiny, but will also stimulate blood circulation and strengthen the skin. Owners of short-haired Chihuahuas can do this once a week, and owners of long-haired dogs can do this several times a week.
Chihuahua bathing:
Bathe your Chihuahua when necessary, using a shampoo for sensitive skin to avoid irritation. Too frequent bathing can dry out their skin and worsen the condition of their fur. It is usually enough to wash them once a month or as needed.
Chihuahua dental care:
Daily brushing with a special dog toothpaste will help prevent tartar and gum disease. This will also help prevent bad breath.
Claw trimming:
Regular nail trimming is a necessity, as long nails can cause pain and discomfort to the dog. Use special claw cutters for small breed dogs to avoid damage.
Cleaning the ears:
A Chihuahua's ears need special attention to avoid the buildup of wax and debris that can lead to infections. Clean the ears once a week with a cotton swab soaked in a special solution for cleaning the ears of dogs.
Haircut for a short-haired Chihuahua:
Grooming is usually not necessary as their coat is short and does not tend to tangle. In the summer, some owners decide to trim their Chihuahuas to reduce the heat load on the dog, but this is not necessary.
Haircut for a long-haired Chihuahua:
Caring for long-haired Chihuahuas requires more attention. Their coat can tangle easily, so they need more frequent brushing, at least two to three times a week. A Chihuahua may need to be trimmed to maintain a neat appearance, especially around the paws, ears, and under the tail. This will only add to the appearance of aesthetics and promote hygiene, preventing the accumulation of dirt and residues in hard-to-reach places.

By following these simple Chihuahua grooming tips, you will be able to keep your pet looking great and ensure a healthy and happy life.

Frequently asked questions about the care of Chihuahua owners

In hot weather, it should be ensured that Chihuahuas do not overheat. Always provide access to cool water and shaded areas, limit the duration and intensity of walks during the hottest hours of the day.

How to train a Chihuahua to the toilet?

Toilet training a Chihuahua takes patience. Start by using a special litter box or puppy litter in a designated area. When you notice that your dog is looking for a place to go to the toilet, move him to the litter box. After successful use of the tray, reward him with praise or treats. Regular walks will also help train your Chihuahua to use the toilet outside.

Chihuahuas are one of the most popular dog breeds in the world, known for their small size, big eyes, and loyalty to their owners. They often become favorites of celebrities and even appear on red carpets with them. Their popularity as pets is no accident: chihuahuas are very easily attached to their owners and become real members of the family. However, in order for your little Ponytail to always look charming and feel comfortable, you need to know how to properly care for its fur.

On our page, you will learn about the peculiarities of care and haircuts for Chihuahuas with different types of fur. We will look at what tools and products are needed for grooming, discuss different haircut techniques for boys and girls, and share tips for maintaining the health and beauty of your Pet’s coat. Regardless of whether you are the owner of a long-haired or a short-haired Chihuahua, you will find useful information for the optimal care of your Pet.

Types of Chihuahua fur

Long-haired Chihuahuas have a thick and soft coat that can be wavy or straight. They look very impressive, but they need regular care to maintain their beauty and health. A Chihuahua’s thick coat can be long and thick, giving it an elegant appearance, and the undercoat that long-haired Chihuahuas often have requires special care. Daily brushing is a must, as the coat of long-haired Chihuahuas is prone to mats, so it needs to be combed daily with special brushes and combs. Regular bathing once every 2-4 weeks using shampoos and conditioners designed for long-haired breeds will help keep the coat clean and healthy. In addition, it is necessary to regularly trim the fur around the paws, ears and tail to prevent it from tangling and maintain a neat appearance.

Short-haired Chihuahuas have smooth and shiny coats that are much easier to care for than their long-haired cousins. They look very neat and elegant without the need for frequent grooming. The coat of short-haired sneezes is short and smooth, close to the body, and the absence of an undercoat makes it easier to care for them. Although short-haired Chihuahuas don’t tangle, they still need to be brushed regularly to remove dead hair and maintain skin health. Bathing once every 1-2 months or in case of soiling using shampoos for short-haired breeds will help keep the coat clean and shiny. They usually do not require regular trimming, but the fur on the paws and tail can be trimmed for a neat appearance.

Grooming tools and products

Proper care of Chihuahua fur requires the use of special tools and products. This will help keep your Pet’s coat in good condition.

Basic tools

There are a few basic tools you will need to care for your Chihuahua. Combs and brushes are essential. A soft-toothed comb is ideal for combing long-haired Chihuahuas, helping to detangle tangles. A soft-bristled brush is used for short-haired Chihuahuas, helping to remove dead hair and keep the coat smooth. A brush with wire bristles will also be useful, which effectively removes sneezes from long-haired dogs.

Hair clippers are used to trim the hair on the paws, tail and other areas where correction is needed. It is important to have scissors with blunt ends for the safety of the dog. Filing scissors help to create smooth transitions in the length of the coat, which is especially useful for cutting under a puppy or under a lion.

Electric trimmers are used to cut fur on large areas of the body, provide uniform length and a clean cut. They are suitable for creating various stylish haircuts in long-haired dogs.

Recommended products

It is important to use the right cosmetics for fur care. Shampoo for sensitive skin is suitable for dogs with sensitive skin, soothes irritation and prevents allergic reactions. The moisturizing shampoo is ideal for long-haired Chihuahuas as it helps keep the coat soft and shiny. The anti-dandruff shampoo is specially designed for dogs with thick hair, prevents the formation of dander and makes combing easier.

Conditioners also play an important role in fur care. The easy combing conditioner helps detangle tangles and keeps the coat smooth and docile. The deep conditioner restores the structure of the wool, making it softer and shinier.

Oils and sprays complement hair care. Wool oil nourishes and moisturizes the wool, makes it more shiny and healthy, which is especially useful for long-haired breeds. An easy combing spray is used before combing to make the process easier.

Additional products, such as grooming wipes, are convenient for quickly cleaning the paws, muzzle and other parts of the body after a walk. Wool powder helps keep wool dry and clean.

Using quality grooming tools and products will help keep your Chihuahua’s coat healthy and attractive.

The cost of cutting and grooming a Chihuahua

Chihuahua care includes not only home procedures, but also professional grooming, which can significantly affect the appearance and health of your Pet. Understanding the cost of grooming will help you budget better and ensure your pooch gets the best possible care.

The cost of cutting and grooming a Chihuahua can vary greatly depending on the region. In big cities, grooming services are usually more expensive than in smaller towns. On average, a basic package of grooming services, which includes bathing, clipping, nail trimming and ear cleaning, can cost from 1,000 to 1,500 hryvnias. In some cases, if the dog needs special care or a haircut for the exhibition, the cost can be even higher. For example, in the V.O.G DOG network of salons for dogs, the cost of grooming and cutting a Chihuahua in salons in Kyiv is fixed at 950 hryvnias. Professional care is guaranteed.

The cost of chihuahua grooming services depends on several main factors. First, the size of the dog affects the duration and complexity of the procedure. Although Chihuahuas are small dogs, their size can vary, which affects the cost of grooming.

Secondly, the type of wool is an important factor. Long-haired Chihuahuas require more time and effort to care for, as their coat is prone to matting and requires frequent combing and trimming. Accordingly, the cost of grooming for longhairs is usually higher than for shorthairs.

Thirdly, the condition of the dog’s coat significantly affects the cost. If the coat is badly tangled or neglected, the groomer will spend more time combing and restoring it, which will increase the overall cost of the service. Regular grooming at home will help reduce the cost of professional grooming, as it will be easier for the groomer to do his job.

Additionally, some salons may offer specialized services such as breed-specific haircuts or show grooming, which will also affect the cost. If you want your Chihuahua to look perfect for the shows, be prepared to pay extra.

Understanding these factors will help you better plan your chihuahua’s care and provide him with the level of care he needs without the unexpected costs.

 

Chihuahua haircut

Preparation for haircut

Before the haircut, it is important to properly prepare the dog. Bathe her 1-2 days before the procedure, using a shampoo that is suitable for your Pet’s coat type. After bathing, shampoo the coat thoroughly to avoid skin irritation and use conditioner for easy combing. Comb the coat to remove any tangles and make sure the coat is completely dry before clipping. Check the fur for parasites such as fleas or ticks and examine the skin for irritations or sores.

Next, we will describe only the most popular haircut options.

Haircut of long-haired chihuahuas

For a puppy cut, comb the coat to remove all tangles and determine the desired length. Start from the back by cutting the coat to the desired length with scissors, continue to cut the sides and belly, maintaining the same length of coat. Trim the fur on the paws, leaving small strands, and style a short haircut around the muzzle for a neat look.

For a haircut “under the lion”, comb the wool, remove all the hairs. Use the trimmer to create a “mane” around the neck, leaving the coat long, trim the coat on the neck, making it thick and lush. Cut the rest of the body shorter, shape the legs so that the fur is shorter, and trim the fur on the tail, leaving a “brush” at the tip.

Haircut of short-haired chihuahuas

For a “flatvek” haircut. Brush the coat with a soft-bristled brush, making sure the coat is completely dry. Use a trimmer to even out the coat all over the body for a smooth and even look, trim the coat on the legs for neatness, leaving a little longer around the legs for a decorative effect.

For a blending cut, use scissors to comb the coat, removing any tangles, and determine which areas need to be trimmed to create smooth transitions. Use thinning shears to create smooth transitions between different lengths of coat, trim the back, flanks and belly, leaving a bit longer on the back, shape the feet leaving a smooth transition to the main cut, and trim the tail.

Haircuts for Chihuahua boys and Chihuahua girls sometimes differ. Usually, longer haircuts are chosen for girls, and shorter haircuts for boys, for example, “under a puppy”.

 

Chihuahua coat care

Proper fur care will ensure the health and good looks of your Pet. Regular grooming routines will help avoid problems with the coat and skin, ensuring constant comfort of the dog.

Daily care

Daily grooming of a Chihuahua’s coat helps keep it in good condition and prevents the formation of mange, especially in long-haired dogs. It is important to comb the wool daily with special tools. Use a soft-toothed comb or a wire-bristled brush to remove dead hair and detangle.  In addition, daily care includes examining the skin for irritations or parasites such as fleas or ticks and addressing these problems in a timely manner.

Cleaning ears and eyes

Regular cleaning of the ears and eyes is an integral part of Chihuahua care, as these areas are particularly prone to contamination and infection. To clean the ears, use a special product for caring for the ears of dogs, which can be purchased at pet stores or from a veterinarian. Moisten a cotton pad or tampon with this product and gently wipe the inner surface of the ear, removing dirt and sulfur. Do not insert the tampon deep into the ear, so as not to damage the eardrum. Chihuahua eyes also require regular care, as due to their large size, they are prone to accumulation of secretions. Use a cotton pad dipped in warm water to gently wipe the area around the eyes, removing secretions and tear stains. Regular care will help to avoid infections and inflammations.

Additional tips from V.O.G DOG chihuahua grooming experts

Our groomers recommend using quality shampoos and conditioners designed specifically for dogs to avoid drying out the skin and coat. Second, it’s important to trim your dog’s nails about once a month to prevent overgrowth and damage to his paws. Use special scissors for cutting the claws and be careful not to damage the blood vessels.

Common Chihuahua grooming mistakes include bathing too often, which can dry out the skin, and irregular brushing, which can lead to mange and skin problems. You should also avoid using human cosmetics for dog care, as they can cause allergic reactions and skin irritation.

Adherence to these recommendations will ensure a healthy and beautiful appearance of your Lucky. Regular care of the coat, claws, ears and eyes will help to avoid many problems and ensure your Tail’s comfort and joy of life.
