chihuahua

A four legged insect with a tail that barks like a dog. It has massive self esteem, picking fights with anyone regardless of size. Supposedly, its eyes work like microscopes that make everyone else look tiny, explaining its fake bravery, though it will back off whining if confronted. It has a member way too big for its body and often needs a concrete block to reach larger dogs during mating. The real trouble starts when the act is over and it stays stuck, hanging like it is on a crane. Because it gets worked up and loses its temper so easily, it is common for them to die of heart attacks (coger cuerda is a Caribbean expression for getting angry or easily provoked).

Hey Victor, stop petting that rat. Man, I thought it was a chihuahua! Damn, where is that Rottweiler running off to? The neighbor's chihuahua chased him away.
