Breed note

Chihuahuas are the world's smallest dog breed with a fast metabolism requiring small-breed, calorie-dense, high-protein nutrition in multiple small meals to prevent hypoglycemia. Omega-3 fatty acids support their coat (short or long) and skin health. Small kibble size supports dental hygiene, as toy breeds are particularly prone to periodontal disease. Avoid overfeeding as even small amounts of excess weight significantly stress their tiny joints.
