Chihuahuas shed very little hair, making them a great choice for those who dislike excess hair in the house.

Collies shed a lot of hair each year, so frequent brushing is essential for reducing shedding and maintaining coat health.

Chihuahuas are decent watchdogs - they'll alert their owner if something seems amiss.

Choose a Collie if you want a top-notch watchdog. This breed takes guarding seriously, and may not require much training, though obedience or guard dog training can improve their skills.
