I never even knew about AKC standards until I got my Tia.. then I found out that the chi's across the street that I loved so much were TOO big to meet the standards plus they were DEERHEADS.. it didnt stop me from loving them though.. but their owners moved out this week so I wont get to see them no more.. waaaah...

Chihuahua's are the only breed I have ever seen obsess over a dogs weight!! Would anyone say that dog is too big to be a Yorkie, or that can't be a Pekinese it is too heavy!! 2 lbs. or 10 lbs it is still a chihuahua!! Perhaps it can't be a show dog but do people say," Oh that dog doesn't have a good top line, it can't be a chihuahua." or, " Your dog is not a chihuahua, look at it's incorrect bite!" Good grief, who does it matter to? I have small ones, thin ones, fat rolly polly ones, but I'm not going to show them so who cares? Just love and enjoy their great personalities. Next time if someone questions you say, " Oh your right it isn't a chihuahua it's a Great Dane, just a little on the small size. A teacup Great Dane to be exact!"

I was at the pet store this morning with my three little ones... this lady came over and was all ohhhh and ahhhh over them, then asked what breed they where. Of course I replied Chihuahuas. She kept arguing with me about it saying they are too big to be chihuahuas, that chihuahuas can't be over 5 lbs. Don't get me wrong... all of my little ones are larger chihuahuas. Chip is 7..2lbs, Dale is 10.5lbs... he is over weight and Gidget (my new little girl) is 7.9lbs. I know both Dale and Gidget have a little bit of weight on them they could lose but I don't think either of them would be or look health under 5lbs. Both of them are on a diet weight now so we are working to loss some of the extra weight. When Dale got fixed he went from 7lbs to 12lbs, so far he has lost a couple of lbs. Chip on the other hand looks skinny at 7.2lbs. I am wrong that it is normal for chihuahua to weight that much.
