Stupid question! I know!

A lot of people have been asking me lately if my baby is a full breed chihuahua, I mean I have seen her parents, her mom is a full black long coat chi chi and her dad is a short coat tan chihuahua.

Don't get me wrong at this point I don't care if she's a full breed or a mix, I love her so much and I can't imagine my life without her I find it quite interesting to actually hear some opinions of people who have chihuahuas and love them like I do :)

I do kind of get it that people usually associate chihuahuas with the short coat tan version with big ears, but I just wanted to hear some opinions about my Cookie :)

I hope you will be able to see the pictures of her in this thread! If somehow they won't pop up you can see some pictures of her in my album :)


And she is a little big for her age I think! She's 10 weeks old now and she's just over 3lbs.

Thank You for your replies everyone :)

I might have to ask the lady I got her from what is the parents weight atm and how old are they. All I know she is definitely not going to be a skinny little chi chi :) More like a chunky cookie :) ha ha!

It's funny that you mention that she looks like a teddy! When I first saw her I wanted to call her Teddy! (I didn't know back then if she was a girl or a boy) but when I found out she was a girl my husband just went 'She's white and brown, she looks like an oreo...we should call her Cookie' and that's what we went for :)

She looks like a chihuahua to me too. You're right, people often think of chihuahuas as smooth coat and tan and assume anything else is a mix or not a chi. And a lot of people are generally clueless about breeds. I have 2 smooth coat chis and I get questions all the time too. Btw Cookie is so cute!!

Yup looks liuke a full LC chi to me.

I agree with the ladies some people dont know that Long Coat chi's are a thing lol. I get asked it with Neeva all the time right now as she looks like the smallest fluffiest german shep pup youd ever see. ;)

Your baby is such a cutie though! beautiful pup. :)
