I think he looks like a regular chihuahua. I've seen a few others with black masks.
And FWIW I'll be the one to chime in.. no such thing as a "designer dog!" The term is just used by BYB's looking to make a buck... there's no such breed as a chug. Just a chihuahua mixed with a pug. I understand it's a cute way to shorten the name, but I would be very very careful using the word around most people as it can give them the wrong idea that cross breeding is a good thing. But, it can also be a good way to educate people about the fad of designer dogs as well, which you can then mention that shelters are full of them! I look for any opportunity to open peoples' eyes about the reality of "designer" dogs.
