Absolutely not. This is WAY underweight. You need to find a vet with
chihuahua specific experience. I would recommend a very nutritionally dense
food (I personally like Innova EVO) and start putting some healthy weight on
these dogs. You should be able to feel a healthy dog's ribs and spine, but
not SEE them. I would have them checked for parasites and a blood panel
done.
