is my cosmo a mix ?

i never thought so.. if he was a mix.. i think it would a terrier.. like a jack russel.. or a rat terrier.. but i always thought he looked like a chi.. a unique chi.. and in my opinion one of the most beautiful chi's (all of the ones on this site are beautiful..so he is one of the beautiful )

I think cosmo does look like a mix - he has the perfect chi nose from the side but then face onwards he doesnt look like a chi?

He is still a cute tiny tots tho!


I honestly dont know what he could have been breed with but it must have been a real cutie :wink:

Wont your vet be able to tell you if he's a mix or not?

He looks like a deerhead chi to me. Plus if he was a mix he'd probably be bigger.

Totally Chi, in my opinion!

I always saw him as a pure chi! Kindof reminds me of Tequila and she has papers

he has the perfect chi nose from the side

I would say he is full chi just with a longer snout as snouts are usually alot shorter - when I look at him I have never thought hes a mix , but I agree with earlier if he is a mix probably with a terrier - what did the breeders say - or did you rescue ? :wave:

Looks all chi to me and a gorgeous one at that!!

He looks like a chi to me also. Just a longer snout than most.

I don't think so...I think he is a pure deerhead chi, but then again, deerheads vary in their looks...

I'm curious to know also what the breeder has to say. Does he have papers?

well to be honest i think he looks like a true deerhead but he could be who knows but in my opinion deer head chi most likely!

I think he is full chi and one of the best looking chi's i have ever seen (oh except for tyson of corse) :lol:

My mum and i are totally in love with Cosmo

I think he is a pure chi Nat but maybe his parents weren't the chi 'standard'? How old is he now? Because 7 pounds isn't big. My Buster is a little over 7 and he is small and definitely a pure chi. :wink:

Edited to say that I clicked yes by accident. I misread the question.

He look's like a pure chi to me. I'd be interested to know how you got him? If you got him from a breeder they should have showed you his parent's....anyhow he's c.u.t.e. no matter what!!!!!!

Nat, to me he honestly looks just like a deer head chi. He has the chi eyes, ears, build and size. His nose might be a bit longer than most, but to me he looks all chi.

Just wanted to add how much I loooove his markings around the face. Cosmo is a very handsome chi.

You wanna talk about big noses?

If Lily's a pure chi, so is Cosmo. Her snout just about goes on forever. :lol:

Looks like a pure chi to me...and a very handsome one at that !!

he's all chi to me. and we all know that my opinion matters by far lol... ok ok kidding! i just love him and his black muzzle he's such the hunk!!!!!

hey thanks all for your replys !!!
i bought him from a breeder who said he was a chihuahua , but i don't have papers ,only a passport so they can write what they want on there .....

Lovelychipupz; a vet can never rule out for sure if some dogs are mixes or not ....and again in belgium people don't know appleheads or deerheads ,they just think im' waffling out of my mouth

he's now 9 months old so i don't suppose he's getting bigger ...i also saw a few chi's on here that looked almost similar ( diesel and another one ,don't know the name, and also one at meetup pics) so that got me to think yes he is chi !! but i wanted to rule out for sure .........

thanks ladies (and gentlemens )

kisses nat

Maybe he just has a big nose so he can sniff out all the yummy treats before his sisters :lol:!

I thought the vet would have been able to tell you as they can always tell with our 3 dogs - i guess no-one can tell you for sure 100% it's just judgements based on the way they look really!

He's tiny, and everyone thinks he looks like a chi and so do you - and even if he werent really he's still wee cosmo
