Holly - 2012-03-26 We just got a little black and white long haired apple head last Tuesday! He is the love of our lives - well, our cats are too - but he is such a sweetie! He is now 9 weeks old and is very smart! He learned his name (Zero - partly because he weighs next to nothing, and also after the ghost dog on 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' in just a few days. He came pee pad trained from the breeder, and is doing well with eliminating on the pads as well as outside when we take him. He's currently 1.5 lbs. His mom is 4 lbs and his dad is 9 lbs. He takes after his mom in colouring, coat and bone structure, so we think he will be small. We've seen 2 of his siblings and they are twice his size already - although, he's not the runt. Great little dog! Wonderful in the car, wonderful with other dogs and cats and super with other people - although he's become very attached to me since I've been off work for a few days. He's warming up to my husband quite nicely. :D

MICHA - 2012-03-25 I JUST GOT AN APPLEHEAD TODAY AND I ADORE HER. I NAMED HER COCONUT - SHE;S SO SWEET! I LOVE HER AS DO MY OTHER PETS (TWO LONGHAIRS AND A POMERANIAN and 3 KITTIES)!
Bob - 2012-01-30 I have an apple head who is coming into heat. We bought another male chihuahua who was representented as a toy but he is now 9 pounds, twice as big as my Mia. What would happen if I allowed them to mate? I love my Mia and do not want any harm to come to her. Would love to hear some first hand experience with this situation. I cannot believe I am the only one with this question. Thanks.

Charlie Roche - 2012-01-30 You need to take both dogs into a vet. It might be that they can not mate or it might be that that she will not be able to deliver naturally. I wouldn't go head and allow them to mate till you find out additional information.
Cassie - 2012-03-16 When breeding small breeds your male should always be bigger than your female. The male determined the size of the pups..
BRENDA MORRIS - 2012-03-06 I recently got an applehead male. He rarely want's to eat and when he doe's eat later on he will vomit is there something I can do to get this to stop?

Charlie Roche - 2012-03-07 I would switch food as possibility the food doesn't agree with him. I'd watch him eat as sometimes the eat so fast - the wind up throwing up. Feed him a little amount at a time and put a little yogurt on it to help settle stomach. If this doesn't work, I'd take him to the vet as I would be concerned about an obstruction. If he is active, playing and poop is normal then I would just think he is eating the food way too fast. Possibly holding off eating to make sure he is not going to get something better like toast or a cookie and if he doesn't get his little treats, he just wolfs down the food which causes him to throw up. Good luck - little yogurt on the food - or broth might be a good thing.
rebel - 2012-02-26 I have a female Applehead and she got caught by a 4 month old Chihuahua cross pom. I'm so scared if she will be able to deliver the pups ... can any one give me advice??

Charlie Roche - 2012-02-27 I would definitely talk to your vet as soon as possible. These little Appleheads frequently can not deliver naturally and a Pom/cross, even with another Chihuahua, might be hard for her. I'd see your vet right away.
Rusty - 2011-11-17 I have an Applehaead Chihuahua mix Terrier and she`s a little over six months old. She is so friendly with all kids, adults, other dogs. she`s very energetic. and so cute cause her ears still flop over at the tips. she was easy to train like sitting, hand shake, dancing around, lying down, but the hardest was training her to go potty outside and to also do her thing on the paper consistantly. I watch Ceasar Millano he is awesome.
DeeAnne Hedrick - 2011-11-06 Yes they are. I got a deerhead puppy when he was 13 weeks old. One parent was applehead and one was deerhead. I got lucky and got one of the deerhead puppies. I'm looking for someone that has a registered applehead female they want to breed and must be disease free. I just want one of the pups.
Susan - 2009-12-31 I have a long haired and short haired chihuahua. Two totally different personalities. The long haired (Matrix) is "soooooo cuuuute" as my daughter puts it. The short haired (Max) is the strong willed, independent stubborn one. Matrix is companionable and will roll over to have his belly scratched. Max will come by you only if he can crawl in between your legs or under the covers or sit on your chest. They really don't seem to like each other and constantly fight over toys and bones. Being a large dog owner all my life I didn't think I would be able to cope with small dogs, but they are great and grow on you and if you like to cuddle, they are the dog for you.

Mardi Brown - 2010-11-28 I also have a long haired and a short haired chihuahua. Your comments sound exactly like my two dogs! The short haired is stubborn and jealous of the long haired one, and is always stealing bones and toys from the long haired one. The short haired one is 8 and the long haired one is 2. I don't think they will ever be buddies.
Oleg - 2011-10-29 Hi, I am interested in a long haired chihuahua. Could you please send me photos of it. Regards,
Applehead Chihuahua is cute name, for special little Chihuahuas with an 'apple-shaped' head!
