Do you have more than one Chi/Small dog? Do they get along well?
I'm asking this 'cuz, My twin and I are both getting Chis, and I want to know if they get along. Or is they act like little devils with other dogs.

They should get along fine. try and get litter mates if you can. Chi's love their own kind and get along with each other very well. Good Luck.

Whether or not chi's get along is a complicated thing. LOL

We've had Jaelyn since last summer. She was our only adopted chi until a few weeks ago, but we foster chi's alot of the time. So there's usually an extra chi in the house. Occasionally there's another small breed dog instead. Jaelyn didn't get along with the girl chi's. She'd bite them on the tummy and bark at them. The energetic boy chi's we've gotten she barks at more and can be aggressive towards them.

Bring into the mix our new three year old male chi and she pays him no attention whatsoever. It doesn't help that if I'm not holding him he hides under my chair. He's very submissive. (Just what she needs.)

I think she's aggressive with our foster chi, Oliver, because he's very high energy and he gets her worked up. I think (and seriously hope) when he's adopted that she will go back to her semi-layed back personality since the only chi presence in the house will be Jaeran. (We need a serious break after Oliver gets adopted. LOL Plus we need to give Jaeran time to settle into the house and he can't do that with Oliver around.)

Whether or not chi's get along seems like a science. I will say this... if you both get two laid back/submissive chi's (not high energy) there is a much better chance of them getting along. Or if one of you gets a high energy/dominant chi try getting a submissive chi as your second one. If you get two high energy/dominant chi's chances are your house will be chaos. (Just like ours. LOL)

Just a thought, but if you're adopting puppies or young adults from the same litter there is a bigger chance of them getting along already.

I hope this helps you at least a little.

Thanks. I am adopting a one year old, and my sister is adopting a one and a hlaf year old.

It's never a for-sure thing, but I would say from experience that two Chis are more likely to get along than a Chi and another breed. They recognize the same breed and depending on their individual personalities, many Chis really like to meet each other.

My boy is pretty social with most dogs, but specifically seems to dislike almost all puppies of any breed except Chihuahuas (he also seems to have an intolerance concerning Boston Terriers specifically).

Do you know if they're from the same litter? Or are they rescues from different previous owners?

I have 4 Chi's and they all get along fine. As long as you take the Alpha role you can have peace with 20.

It would be great if you guys could rescue two Chi's that need to be rehomed together. But since you have one picked out already then I would definately make sure they get along first. If they are from the same rescue organization then this should be easy. It would be according which is Alpha and if both are? Also both coming into a new environment that neither has become territorial over yet is definately a bonus but it will depend on the Chi's themselves
