Vet says Chili is a purebred Chihuahua!

I took Chili for her first vet visit today. She had already seen one at the Shelter and got all of her shots, but I brought her to get a more accurate age and also because her breath could kill someone.
The Vet said "Finally, a Chihuahua that is not overweight!"
I told him I thought she was part Min Pin. He said no, she is a "Deer type" Chihuahua, they have longer snouts and are usually taller. They often resemble the Min Pin. I asked about the ears and he said sometimes they don't stand up without being taped.
The good news, She is only 5 or 6 yrs old!
The bad news, she has to have her teeth cleaned next week.
Boy, do they charge a lot. 8O :twitch:

Chili's newest pics can be seen on Dogster.

Doesn't it! :lol: (The Taco Bell dog was also a Deer Type Chihuahua)
I actually caught her while she was blinking. I kept focusing the camera which focuses using a red light. She was blinking a lot because I took a ton of pictures trying to capture the essense of Chili. :lol:

Ginny, She is very happy being a follower. :wink:
She will eat her bones right in front of the other dogs. They will come over to see what she has, but they don't bother her.
Rags wouldn't even let Peanut eat his food on the floor, I had to put it on the kitchen table :roll:
So I guess the Sheepies approve. 8)

Darcy, Sorry I don't remember the commercials, what was it for?
Sounds funny :lol:
pearl drops....the chick at the end of the commercial used to lick her teeth and moan at the same time 8O
Now I remember! 8) :lol:
I love her ears like that! CUTE
I don't normally like Chihuahuas, but this one is a cutie. I think it's the longer snout I like........and those ears! I hope she remains svelt and has many years with you.

WWOOOOOOOWW She is a cutie :kiss:
I loved the last pic :lol:
Awww a little cutie and how wonderful to be able to find out all that and the fact she is not as old as the shelter said she was. :D
She is adorable!
She is a cutie and I am glad she is fitting in so well Elissa.
Thanks :D
The more she relaxes here, the more her personality emerges.
She is a silly, little, happy, sweet, loving girl.
I feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful dog.
She's not yappy, only barks if someone is at the front door.
She is looking good. I can't remember - did you know if she was an owner surrender or a stray?
She was a stray with a collar and ID on her.
The information on the collar was old info and nobody came in looking for her. If she had been my dog I would have been at the shelters everyday looking for her. She is just the sweetest little girl.

She is now microchipped :) and wears a collar with ID.
Awe, I'm glad you got such a sweetie.
