Abby - What breed is she?

[Catsi]

Just for fun. :-)

Really an excuse for me to show off beautiful Abby.







And a fairly awful photo of me with Abby to demonstrate her size.


And just one more... coz she's cute...

I posted the same picture twice and now I cannot edit...

She's cute!

She looks like a long haired chi to me.

^ Thanks guys! She is precious indeed.

She definitely is a spunky little mite. There is attitude there for sure - maybe not a full on terrier-like tenaciousness, but there is certainly a spark there. A little bit full of herself.

She has a longer muzzle than many chis I typically see and she is bigger and more solidly built. She is actually a very strong little dog - I've never been worried about her being too fragile and we do a lot of physical activity.

I realise that she's not a purebred or even a well-bred dog (and the photos probably don't really reveal too much), but does she look like a decently put together dog in general conformation? I have nearly no knowledge in that area. I'll probably have to get better pics for that purpose though.

Many, many chihuahuas do a lot of physical activity and are not fragile. As far as her being bigger and more solidly built, I think you usually see chihuahuas that are bred to be as small as possible
