I want to have a CHIHUAHUA

It seems like I need a new dog to make me feel new deep inside. We have a senior dog here aged 10. I was thinking to have a chihuahua that would be suitable for my taste lately. Here is the catch, I am not sure if I will choose an apple head or a deer head chihuahua. As I was looking at this photo, I am rooting for an apple head type. What do you think is best? Can you help me out to decide? Image Credit: loveyourdog.com

What's the breed of your senior dog? I prefer the dog in the second picture

@Nawsheen I am planning to have an apple head but not sure. There are some facts that make me have a second thought.

The senior one is mixed breed. The second picture is a deer chihuahua.

I have no clue what either an 'apple head' or 'deer head' should look like I like the little black and white one.

Oh, ok. Now I know the difference. Here in El Paso the deer head is the more common chihuahua

@rebelann It seems you like a deer head then, isn't it?

We owned both types when I was growing up and both types are friendly and loving pets. (Both types are also what we call "yappy" dogs. They'll start barking at any sound or smell they don't recognize and they don't stop yapping for a long time. Their barks can be high pitched and, I guarantee, will get on your nerves if you're already tired or frustrated about something.) I'm NOT trying to talk you out of getting a new puppy. I just think you should be aware that though they're wonderful pets, they do have drawbacks. May I suggest, if there is a dog shelter in your city that has some in it, that you go, see and play with some there before making up your mind? Sometimes, it isn't the shape of the head that will attract you to a particular pet, but how the prospective pet responds to you, personally. Good luck choosing one and, when you do, please take pictures so we can see him/her, too.

I am still exploring it. I do hope I can choose the right one. Speaking of barking much will make me irritated. Perhaps a mixed one will be fine. Not sure yet though.

@DaddyEvil I asked a friend to find me one with a good personality.

I'm afraid I don't like chihuahuas much. The only ones I've known have been snappy little things. But I'm sure they're not all like that.

Oh, my. I hope I could find a good personality that will not destroy or keep on barking. It is not what I wanted.

@Shavkat The Maltese crosses are very popular here but perhaps they have too much fur to be happy in a humid climate.

All your pets end up dying, I don't think you need another dog.

At some point, you are right. I just only want a companionship.

@Shavkat If an animal isn't well cared for, you shouldn't get one.

I love the black one but the brown one is the typical chihuahua face. They are both adorable though

I don't know what to choose because they both look good. Let us see if you got a new one

The deer head is preferable.
