Are Chihuahuas mean dogs?

Chihuahuas are not mean, but they can sometimes be perceived that way due to their confident, bold personalities. Many small dogs are often described as being more aggressive than large dogs. But it’s important to be aware that this behavior is usually driven by fear or insecurity rather than true aggression . If a Chihuahua seems mean or overly aggressive, it’s often a sign that they haven’t been properly socialized or may need more confidence-building training. With the right care, Chihuahuas are friendly, loving companions.
