What are some supplies I will need for my chihuahua pup ?
I am going to be a new owner of a chihuahua puppy. I would like to know some supplies I need to buy to make my new chihuahua feel right at home. She is not pottie trained so I know I will need wee wee pads.

A chihuahua can never be left outside. They are way to fragile. They are the smallest recognized breed. That said you need:
a few blankets (heated or kept in warm area of house)
bowls for food and water (water at all times)
puppy food (I prefer Natural Selections)
puppy pads or newspaper
collar with name tag and contact info
microchip (from doctor with new shots to go with)
treats for training
stuffed animal for cuddling
chew toy for fiesty moments
harness for outside walks
coat and boots if cold out
dog carrier for car rides
tooth brush and nailclippers (this can also be done at a groomer or the vets)
and lots of hugs and love ready to go!!
Good luck!!!!
Sweater. Heated blanket if staying outside. Nail clippers. Tooth brush and tooth paste this breed gets bad breath and bad gingivitises. Leash. Microchip. Collar with ID tag and license. Food bowl and dog house. A dog bed if you don’t want him or her on the sofa or furniture. A clicker for training.
And if your like my mom or my friend a diamond collar form tiffany’s and a coach collar to match.
Have fun with your puppy!
GOOD QUESTION
1.YOU ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THE PADS
2.[FOOD] BUY DIFFERENT KINDS OF PUPPY CHOW TO SEE WHAT THE PUPPY LIKES BEST [WHEN I MEAN WHAT IT LIKES BEST I MEAN WHAT IT IS MOST COMFORTABLE WITH. RETURN THE FOODS NOT EATEN AND BUY MORE FOOD OF WHAT THE DOG LIKES TO EAT. IF THAT IS TO MUCH TROUBLE THAN BUY ONE KIND OF FOOD AND LET THE PUPPY EAT THAT. MY OPINION IS TO BUY THE DIFFERENT KINDS BECAUSE YOU SAID YOU WANT IT TO FEEL RIGHT AT HOME .] ALSO BUY FOOD BOWL.
3.[WATER] LIKE US DOGS GET THIRSTY SO BUY A WATER BOWL. [ WHEN DOG IS POTTY TRAINED LEAVE BOWL OUTSIDE .ON SUPER HOT DAYS GET ICE CUBES AND ROLL THEM AROUND TO COOL THE PUPPY OFF BUT MAKE SURE IT WON'T STICK TO THE DOG'S TONGUE.]
4. [BED] MOST DOG OWNERS HATE TO PUT DOGS THAT ARE NOT POTTY TRAINED IN THEIR BED SO IF YOU ARE THE SAME BUY A SMALL BED THAT IS WASHABLE SO IF THEY PEE. IF NOT KEEP A POTTY PAD IN YOUR BEDROOM.[ DON'T CHOOSE TO BIG OF A BED] http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2753731
5.[TOYS] http://wwhttp://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3201196w.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2751746

IF CANNOT AFFORD TOYS JUST BUY SMALL STUFFED ANIMALS THAT CAN FIT IN ITS MOUTH.
6.[CRATES] IF YOU GO TO WORK AND DON’T WANT TO RISK IT PEEING ON THE FLOOR BUY A CRATE SUCH AS THIS ONE.

[ DON'T MAKE THE CAGE TOO BIG OR IT WILL PEE BECAUSE IT WILL GET NERVOUS BECAUSE TO MUCH OPEN SPACE.]
7. BUY CLOTHES BETWEEN MEDIUM AND SMALL FOR WHEN IT GETS TOO COLD.
8.COLLAR AND LEASH TRY TO GET SMALLOR MEDIUM LARGE IS TOO BIG.
9.LAST OF ALL CLIPPERS,DO SHOTS , AND OTHER YOU CHECK UP WITH VET.
MAKE SURE YOU GET THE SHOTS IF YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE HER/HIM TO THE DOGGY PARK
I HOPE I HELPED YOU WITH YOUR QUESTION (:
