FAQs

How much does a Xoloitzcuintli puppy cost?

Xoloitzcuintli puppies typically cost between $2,500 and $4,000 when bought from responsible breeders, with prices influenced by size, lineage, coat colour (red Xolos often being pricier), and breeder reputation. Adoption fees for rescued adults tend to be much lower, around $100 to $300. While specific UK availability is not well documented, acquiring one there may require contacting specialized breeders or breed clubs.

Are Xoloitzcuintlis good family dogs?

Xoloitzcuintlis are intelligent, loyal, calm, and affectionate dogs that make excellent companions for the right family. They generally handle low to moderate exercise well and are relatively easy to train. However, they may not be ideal for homes with very young children due to their lower patience for rough handling and tend to bond closely with one person, requiring consistent attention.

How much exercise does a Xoloitzcuintli need?

Xoloitzcuintlis require low to moderate exercise, which can usually be met with daily walks and playtime. They appreciate activities that stimulate them both physically and mentally but do not have excessively high energy needs, making them suitable for owners who want a dog with moderate exercise requirements.

Do Xoloitzcuintlis shed a lot?

Xoloitzcuintlis, particularly the hairless variety, have minimal grooming needs and shed very little compared to many other breeds. Their coat is either hairless or very short and dense, so regular wiping with a damp cloth is usually sufficient to maintain cleanliness. This makes them a good choice for those seeking a low-shedding dog.
