Now you will learn how to draw a Chihuahua step by step. This is one of the smallest dog breeds, and it is for this reason that the Chihuahua is very popular.

Due to its small size, this dog can be kept even in a small room. Chihuahuas are playful, inquisitive and active dogs. Chihuahuas get along well with all family members and other animals in the house.

These dogs are good-natured and balanced, but at the same time they are very brave and can bark fearlessly even at large dogs. There are several varieties of Chihuahua dogs. They can be short-haired and long-haired, and they also differ in their color.

In this lesson, the Chihuahua is depicted in a cartoon style and has unrealistic proportions. The legs are short and thin, the head is much larger than the body and the ears are very large. Thanks to such proportions, the dog looks very funny and cute.
