Is it ok to cut the hair short on a long haired chihuahua??

I would think so in general. However, keep in mind the climate where you live if he/she is exposed to sun or cold.Their coat is their protection against the elements whatever they are. We had a sheltie for many years and we kept her in a "puppy cut" (shorter) to keep the shedding/hair problem down and she seemed to do fine.

Removing mats with scissors if done carefully is usually safer than clipping and again the important thing is regular brushing.
