She's beautiful. J I hope you get to adopt her. I have two Chihuahuas at home and both are from rescue groups.

She is a Merle short hair. She is at the Rat-terrier rescue and they think she is part Ratter. She looks like a Chi. They don't say her size or age - I'll be talking to her foster mom soon. My grandmother had a Ratter - great dog. I was just reading about the Merle. Some of you have them. Do you know if deafness and blindness is there right at the beginning, if it is there, or if it is something that comes on? Has this ever been a concern of yours? I've been looking around at the rescue dogs in my area and she really interested me. Because she is a rescue she will be neutered and that is OK by me. They say that Merle Chi's are not pure-bred and are all on the large size. Here's Lilly. <http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/17806393> She doesn't look big - but in the end that isn't a factor for us.
