Subject: [Chihuahuas] First time poster long time lurker!

I must first say I love all the information I get from this group!  I have a 2 
1/2 year old Chi named Roxie.  She is the princess of our house seeing as she 
is the only dog and the only girl besides me!  My reason for posting is I have 
a strange question.  When we purchased her she was the only girl in a litter of 
boys and the boys were all tan Taco Bell looking Chihuahuas.  She is black with 
tan markings kind of like a rottie.  We picked her out paid for her and then a 
couple weeks later we picked her up.  After we had gotten home I noticed that 
the tip of her tail was broken.  About the last 1/2 inch of her tail bends in a 
crazy way.  When I took her to the vet for her checkup and shots the vet 
checked it out and said there were no problems with it, it didn't hurt her and 
shouldn't be a problem.  We will never show her and it only makes her more 
endering to us so that was never an issue.  I really hadn't thought about it 
until recently my brother got a
 beautiful little girl Chi and her tail is exactly the same way!  He had asked 
the breeder he got her from and they didn't know of any accidents she had had.  
So my question after that long round about way is, could this be something that 
is genetic?  The two are in no way related mine was purchased in Louisiana and 
my brothers in Colorado but the brakes are exactly the same!  
Anyway here are some pictures of my princess!  Christmas last year and a couple 
of years ago she was only a few months old in the second picture.  If you look 
closely in the second picture you can kind of see the break in the tip of her 
tail.  Thanks in advanced for any help.  Like I said I have learned a whole lot 
from you guys and enjoy reading all the posts!
