Is it hard to become a pharmacist?
If you have a passion for the field, the question of difficulty will not be a factor. Read the below.
The following is written by and according to the U.S. Department of Labor and particular to the education and training required for pharmacists.
A license is required in all States and the District of Columbia, as well as in Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. In order to obtain a license, pharmacists generally must earn a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree from a college of pharmacy and pass several examinations.
Education and training. Pharmacists who are trained in the United States must earn a Pharm.D. degree from an accredited college or school of pharmacy. The Pharm.D. degree has replaced the Bachelor of Pharmacy degree, which is no longer being awarded. To be admitted to a Pharm.D. program, an applicant must have completed at least 2 years of specific professional study. This requirement generally includes courses in mathematics and natural sciences, such as chemistry, biology, and physics, as well as courses in the humanities and social sciences. In addition, most applicants have completed 3 or more years at a college or university before moving on to a Pharm.D. program, although this is not specifically required.
Pharm.D. programs generally take 4 years to complete. The courses offered are designed to teach students about all aspects of drug therapy. In addition, students learn how to communicate with patients and other healthcare providers about drug information and patient care. Students also learn professional ethics, concepts of public health, and business management. In addition to receiving classroom instruction, students in Pharm.D. programs spend time working with licensed pharmacists in a variety of practice settings.
Some Pharm.D. graduates obtain further training through 1-year or 2-year residency programs or fellowships. Pharmacy residencies are postgraduate training programs in pharmacy practice and usually require the completion of a research project. The programs are often mandatory for pharmacists who wish to work in a clinical setting. Pharmacy fellowships are highly individualized programs that are designed to prepare participants to work in a specialized area of pharmacy, such clinical practice or research laboratories. Some pharmacists who own their own pharmacy obtain a master's degree in business administration (MBA). Others may obtain a degree in public administration or public health.
Licensure. A license to practice pharmacy is required in all States and the District of Columbia, as well as in Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. To obtain a license, a prospective pharmacist generally must obtain a Pharm.D. degree from a college of pharmacy that has been approved by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education. After obtaining the Pharm.D. degree, the individual must pass a series of examinations. All States, U.S. territories, and the District of Columbia require the North American Pharmacist Licensure Exam (NAPLEX), which tests pharmacy skills and knowledge. Forty-four States and the District of Columbia also require the Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Exam (MPJE), which tests pharmacy law. Both exams are administered by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP). Each of the eight States and territories that do not require the MJPE has its own pharmacy law exam. Besides requiring the NAPLEX and law examination, some States and territories require additional exams that are unique to their jurisdictions. All jurisdictions also require a specified number of hours of experience in a practice setting before a license is awarded. In most jurisdictions, this requirement can be met while obtaining the Pharm.D. In many States, applicants must meet an age requirement before a license can be obtained, and some States require a criminal background check.
All States and U.S. territories except Puerto Rico permit licensure for graduates of foreign pharmacy schools. These individuals must apply for certification from the Foreign Pharmacy Graduate Examination Committee (FPGEC). Once certified, they must pass the Foreign Pharmacy Graduate Equivalency Examination (FPGEE), Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) exam, and Test of Spoken English (TSE) exam. Then they must pass all of the exams required by the licensing jurisdiction, such as the NAPLEX and MJPE, and meet the requirements for practical experience. In some States, applicants who graduated from programs accredited by the Canadian Council for Accreditation of Pharmacy Programs (CCAPP) between 1993 and 2004 are exempt from FPGEC certification and examination requirements.

Can an adult chihuahua be trained?
I may not be perfect, but a good dog training system is one of positive reinforcement. This means whenever a dog does what you want it to, you give the dog treat and praise. When a dog does something bad, you simply say no in a stern voice.
Yes they can, but of course since they're land animals they're not all that proficient at it like a seal or otter is. They can and will cross rivers if they have to to get to other grazing lands.
Are long haired dogs better for allergies than short hair?
No, actually, short haired breeds, such as the Chihuahua, are a better choice for somebody with allergies. Long haired dog breeds, such as the Pomeranian or the St. Bernard, shed more hair more frequently, which will create more of a problem to some one allergic.
Are chihuahuas well behaved dogs?
NO! Of course not. There really isn't such a thing as a "bad dog" just bad owners. It all depends on how you raise them just like people. Do not think of them as pocketbook dogs but regular pets. Treat them just like a big dog. Don't carry them around and they will be the nicest pets.
you need to take it to the vet. If not it probably needs dewormer. might have worms. or it might be vomiting because it ate something that's not good. there could be so many things so that's why it' better to take it to the vet.
What if a pomeranian and a chihuahua had puppies?
Then you would have a mixed breed/hybrid, or whatever you want to call it of a pomeranian and a chihuahua

My chihuahua just had one puppy?
This is called a singleton puppy. It is not unusual for a dog to give birth to one puppy, but it is uncommon. The average litter is about six puppies, but some dogs may have more or less.
Singleton puppies lack the companionship of literates, so they often grow up confused about their position in the "pack", may be over-playful because of the lack of playmates it had as a puppy and may be a little snappy because it didn't have siblings to test its "strength" on (which is a perfectly normal thing for puppies to do).
This behaviour is not the fault of the puppy. You can try to find a sibling for the singleton puppy by adopting a stray puppy.

Is it dangerous for small chihuahua and a male toy fox terrier to have puppies?
It depends on the size of the female. Small female Chihuahua's are very likely to need Cesarean Sections, you should NEVER purposely breed a female Chihuahua to a male dog (of any kind) that is larger than her. Chihuahua's should only be bred with extreme care and preparation for the worst.
How many babies do chihuahuas have in one litter?

What habitat is perfered for a chihuahua?
What are you talking about? Chihuahuas are lap dogs. . . they belong with their owners, in homes... you know, like under a roof?
It depends on the chihuahua. The female chihuahua I had was smart, calm, sweet, and protective, letting you know if their was a stranger at the gate. They are definitely a dog I would recommend to someone looking for a smart, sweet, little dog. A friend of mine has a teacup chihuahua, and she is a hyper as ever. I think she might get easily stepped on, so I don't know if a teacup would be great recommendation :)
Anyhow, overall, from what my experience, I think that the general chihuahua smart, sweet, usually calm, sometimes wants to be a lap dog. Hope this helps!! :) -- Tasha (HorsesRockLol)
