Diff lines mature at diff times as well. By standard sized parents do you mean
they were 6lbs or under as per the AKC standard for Chihuahuas? Even with well
bred dogs whose parents, grandparents and great grandparents etc were all
Champions a sport can always be a throwback to a distant relative or set of
genes on both sides. A BYB pup you never can tell until full grown as often a
grandparent was a different breed. Two different vets at 2 diff times told IMPS
a found pup was a MinPin. Both pups grew into Dobermans..lol. And many shelter
pups of mixed parentage have grown much larger then expected so been returned
do to condo etc restrictions. Temperament in pups can change too as well as
structure so your best bet if you want a certain size or temperament is an
older pup or adult. Many purebred Chi pups that look pure Chi have grown into
Chihuahua/dachshund mixes. Or MinPin/dach mixes. A friend bought a Maltese with
AKC papers from a fairly well known breeder and the pup grew into an Eskie mix.
