Best Chihuahuas Tier List

This Mad Chihuahua tier list ranks dogs by how hard they push your Bone-to-Cash engine and how critical they are for Index completion. Use it together with the Tier List Hub, the merge guide, and earn Cash fast whenever you are unsure where the next purchase should go.

Mad Chihuahua’s official loop is clear: Chihuahuas drop Bones, you deposit Bones for Cash, Cash buys more Chihuahuas, merges unlock higher tiers, Lucky Boxes add extras, and the Index tracks all eighteen unlocks. Tiers below map onto that loop instead of pure aesthetics.

Ranking key

  • S — Core income or must-keep merge targets. Build around these.
  • A — Excellent secondary income or ladder pieces you should duplicate on purpose.
  • B — Fine to own for Index; merge extras.
  • C — Early stubs or low impact; merge upward quickly.

Names follow the Index progression from starter mutts up through late showpiece Chihuahuas. When Dojo Empire renames a dog in a patch, match by Index order and Bone rate rather than old marketing titles.

S-tier — protect and duplicate

Top-ladder show Chihuahuas sit here once unlocked. They drop Bones fast enough that a single protected dog funds several lower buys. If a Lucky Box hands you an S-tier you do not own, keep it. If you already own it, decide whether a duplicate helps the next merge or whether Cash is better spent filling a missing Index slot — see complete the Index.

High mid-ladder merge bosses also earn S when they gate multiple later dogs. Losing one to a bad inventory clear can set you back an entire session. Never sell or delete these.

A-tier — intentional duplicates

A-tier dogs are the workhorses of efficient packs. They produce respectable Bones, appear often enough in Lucky Boxes to plan around, and form clean merge pairs into S-tier. During mid game, your Cash should bounce between:

  1. Completing an A-tier pair for a merge.
  2. Buying the cheapest missing Index dog that still raises income.
  3. Saving for the next S-tier unlock cost.

If your board is full of A-tier singles with no pairs, stop buying new lines and finish merges first (how to merge).

B-tier — Index fillers with modest income

B-tier Chihuahuas matter because the Index demands all eighteen. Their Bone rates are acceptable but not exciting. Keep one of each for collection, merge extras, and avoid spending event Cash solely on B-tier cosmetics. When a code drops free Cash (Codes Hub), prefer A/S progression unless you are one B-tier away from an Index reward threshold.

C-tier — merge fuel

Starter Chihuahuas and the lowest shop tiers live here. They exist to begin the Bone drip and to be merged. Do not hoard ten C-tier dogs “for the aesthetic” if they block Lucky Box opens or higher purchases. Convert them upward as soon as a pair is ready.

Stage-by-stage buy plan

Hour one

Buy any available starters, deposit constantly, redeem codes via how to redeem, and complete your first merge. Follow Getting Started for the exact sequence.

Hours two to five

Shift Cash into A-tier pairs. Open Lucky Boxes when your inventory has space (Lucky Boxes guide). Ignore photo cosmetics until income feels automatic.

Index push

List missing Index dogs. Spend on the cheapest missing entries that also help merges. Use boxes to target gaps rather than gambling when you already own duplicates of S-tier.

Prestige / flex

Once the Index is complete, stack S-tier income dogs, practice pack tricks on the Players hub, and watch Updates for rate changes that might reshuffle this list.

Common tier mistakes

  • Saving forever for one S-tier while ignoring cheap pairs that would unlock it faster through merges.
  • Opening every Lucky Box instantly on a full board, then deleting an A-tier by accident.
  • Treating every new shop dog as S-tier because the model looks flashy.
  • Ignoring deposit timing — even S-tier dogs waste value if Bones sit uncollected.

Synergy with other pages

This tier list is a spending compass. Execution still happens in the guides: merge discipline, Cash routes, box timing, and Index checklists. After each major patch, re-read this page and the Tier List Hub summary so your mental ranks stay current.

Strong packs look loud in photos, but the quiet truth is simple: protect S, duplicate A on purpose, keep one B for Index, and burn C upward. Do that consistently and Mad Chihuahua’s eighteen-dog Index stops feeling like a wall.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for Mad Chihuahua players.

What makes a Chihuahua S-tier?

High Bone income, critical merge gates, or both. S-tier dogs fund the rest of your pack and should almost never be deleted.

Should I merge two S-tier dogs?

Only when the resulting tier is worth more than owning two income engines. When unsure, keep both until you read the latest updates.

Are starter dogs always C-tier?

Early shop dogs usually start as C-tier fuel. Their job is to begin Bones and feed the first merges, not to stay forever.

How often is this tier list updated?

After meaningful economy patches from Dojo Empire. Check the Updates hub for the patch that triggered a rerank.
