RE: [Chihuahuas] Tiny Chi baby & Tootsie

[marsha Taylor]

Someone else already sent a link for a copy of the chi weight chart, so I wont repost it, but like that person said, it is a guestimate. It has always been almost perfect on my own chis, but it was WAY off on the last pup I purchased. So it is not 100 percent. It is usually more accurate after 8 weeks of age. It does not take genetics into the equation, which plays a big part in a dogs adult size!!   Yes, solid black is rare in a chi. A lot of people would give an arm and a leg for a solid black. You will see a lot of blacks, but they usually have just a little of another color. Solid black is very rare.   Marsha     ----- Original Message ----- From: Sandra Early To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 10:13 AM Subject: [Chihuahuas] Tiny Chi baby & Tootsie You referred to a chart that could predict mature size. Tootsie is 14 oz. at 11 wks. What should her adult weight be? 10 oz of that is attitude! She's giving what for to my 13LB Chinese Crested Hairless, Pixel the cat and Dottie a 6 lb. 11 yr. old Chi. And yes she is absolutley solid black. I didn't know that was unusual! Sandy __._,_.___ " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends! Join today!
