When I bought Katydid ,I questioned why her mother was so long and the breeder said it was because females are longer so there's room for babies. I guess that could make sense. Kathy

I'm wondering if Jaelyn's size is typical compared to other chi's, mainly in the chest area. She weighs 3 1/2 lbs and she's 8 inches long (from neck to tail). However her chest area is 13" wide and her hip area is 10" wide. Is this normal or is she unique? Sometimes it's difficult to buy her clothes because her length and chest width don't match an outfits sizing measurements.
