Interesting facts about the history of Chihuahua

In 1904, the American Kennel Club recognized the Chihuahua variety for the first time. There are two types of Chihuahuas, short hair and long hair. The standard standard weighs 6 pounds and does not exceed 9 inches in height.

It is the smallest dog in the world, and the world's smallest live dog world record holder is the Chihuahua named Boo Boo. Although its true origin may never be known, the history of Chihuahua is very attractive.
