How smart is Our Chihuahua?

My wife made him a tiny little sweat-shirt to wear. Apparently He didn't like it.
He managed to get it off AND hide it somewhere (we still havn't found it).
Does this indicate He's smart, or just a smart alec dog?

Smart - and obviously p***ed off with being treated like a doll, lol,.

Smart boy - try buying him a little Tshirt next time or a vest that velcros around him - more comfortable.

Some major misconception on here with the answers, chihuahuas are very smart, that's why they were used in circus acts so much years ago - glad they don't do that anymore, but chis are known to be bright.

As to "the only dog that burrows under the covers"??? You've never had a dachshund obviously. These guys burrow under covers all the time. They were bred to dig and burrow and that's what they love to do.

Lots of smart dog breeds around, people just don't give them credit enough - or take the time to understand why they do the things they do.

Sounds like the dog must have a little smart alec in him. Oh and by the way chihuahua's are not the only dogs who get under the covers. My rat terrier and I am sure many other breeds do the same thing.

Yes, chihihuas are also the only breed that is smart enough to get under blankets when its cold. A tool using animal? Very smart.
