Tiny Chihuahua Puts Rowdy Canine Brothers in Their Place During Hilarious Playtime Showdown

Small but mighty dogs have no fear. Size literally means nothing when it comes to putting the hammer down on unwanted shenanigans. Just ask Lucy the 2.6 pound Chihuahua who has self-appointed herself as Sheriff of Fun Town and she's about to put an end to her dog siblings' roughhousing.

Don't mess with Lucy around these parts. This adorably tiny package doesn't hesitate to get between her two big brothers, Frankie and Gus, and it's so on-brand for Chihuahuas everywhere. Take a look at how she handles the situation like a total champ!

In the October 7 clip shared by @frankiegusandlucy , the pint-sized diva takes no prisoners when it comes to playtime. Notice how she disciplines the two pups for breaking the house rules then forces them to kiss and make up? That's something only a pup like Lucy could enforce.

This little feisty fashionista rules all and of the trio's 191k followers, and many pet parents of Chihuahuas can relate to the way she commands a room.

"My 6 pound Chi mix is always the referee for my two 22 pound cats- she always jumps in if they try to start to tossle. She keeps em in line LOL," one person shared.

"So it IS a chihuahua thing! Ours learned to make the big dogs play with him by barking & nipping all their paws. It worked… and he hasn’t stopped doing it for 10+ years," another said.

"So Real!! I have 2 Pibbles (Noodles n Baby) and a Chi-weenie who is the Alpha. Nothing happens un this house without"Shadow-Mob boss-Chupacabra) giving the ok. My old roomie named her 'Pesce', and Baby 'The enforcer,'" another added.

Looks like Lucy isn't the only Chi who runs the show—it's universally known small bigs have big personalities!

Why Do Chihuahuas Think They're the Boss?

It seems every Chihuahua like Lucy commands a room with their presence. This is may more to do with their history rooted in power. The American Kennel Club says that when the Aztecs came into power in the 11th century, these little pups became the status symbol for the nobles, becoming a national treasure.

Their personalities, which likely evolved bigger and bigger over time have always made them great watchdogs. They'll bark at any danger or anything that makes them anxious, serving as the perfect pocket-sized, loyal, companion.

Fiercely loyal to their bonded people and full of energy, Chihuahuas tend to take the authoritative figure because why waste all that sass?! They know who they are and what they want, so you've gotta love them for it.

As for Lucy, keep slaying, Queen!
