With numerous videos showcasing the demonic exploits of trembling balls of fury a.k.a, many have been left to wonder why the breed is popular, or why it wasn’t listed on the dangerous dogs registrar.
Known for their beady little eyes, quivering bodies and gremlin-like snarls, chihuahuas are undoubtedly the angriest dog breed to exist – marked especially by a serious case of the Napoleon complex.
Though there are reports of the odd few nice chihuahuas, a good portion seem to be real-life cretins from hell.
But those who own them seem to think the constant yipping and snarling is funny, knowing that there’s not much power to that bite.
Chatting to a few people on the street, our reporter discovers that many people share this opinion.
“Angry little fuckers”, says Steven [32] from Betoota Grove.
“I’m pretty sure everyone I know has been bitten by one.”
Another woman, Anita Wiley [23] says she can’t stand the argument ‘that’s how you raise them’ and instead suggests they’re just an inherently vicious breed.
“The nature vs nurture debate is bullshit. I had one as a kid and we raised it with love.”
“Didn’t stop him from biting me on the chin.”
Adding that chihuahuas only get away with it because they were highly unlikely to kill someone, as opposed to large dog breeds with a bigger bite force, Anita says the intention to harm is still there – only, they can’t follow through.
“I know a chihuahua would kill me if they could.”
More to come.
