What human food should chihuahuas stay away from?
I read in a book about chihuahuas that they should not eat pork because they can not digest it. Is this true?
Completely false. Only possible problem with pork is that it is a little fatty so you wouldn't want to feed excess amounts.
Big "human" foods to avoid are grapes, raisins, onions, and of course chocolate. Here's a few more: http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm?c=2+1659&aid=1030

High in sodium foods
