noun Chihuahuas · chihuahua

  1. The smallest breed of dog in the world, originating in Mexico and having large erect ears. The first time I saw a Chihuahua, I thought it was a battery-powered toy. Eyes too big for the face, ears of a large dog, took tens of steps to keep up, squeaked like a two-month-old pup.
