I think you may have a Deer-Head Chihuahua.
Looks like a Short Haired Chihuahua , so cute!
Your dog looks so much like a Deer-Head Chihuahua to me. I think it could also be mistaken for a short-haired but I would day dear head for sure.
Please tell me, why does it matter? It's a beautiful dog. I would take it in a skinny minute. Sometimes we pay too much attention to detail. And sometimes we misinterpret those details.
I had a pure bred chihuahua. I would have loved her just as much had she been a mongrel.
I had another chihuahua mix. Shortly after I got her, I took her to a vet for a checkup. They asked the dog's name, I said 'Dog'. (I called her dog initially while learning a little about her nature. I decided I would give her a 'real' name later that suited her nature. She came to know her name as 'Dog' and I never changed it).
They also asked what I fed her. I said 'What I eat'. When I got a copy of the bill, it contained a profile on the dog which included her name and diet.
Her name was listed as 'No Name'. I wanted to call them and tell them, 'My dog's name is 'Dog', not 'No Name'. But I didn't.
They listed her diet as 'table scraps'. I wanted to call and tell them I did not eat table scraps. I fed the dog what I ate. For the most part, a nourishing, balanced low fat diet But I didn't.
So much for details.
By the way, calling her 'Dog' was so easy. When I took her for outings, people would ask her name. I would say 'Dog'. They would smile and say 'OK'.
When I took my pure bred for outings, people would ask her name. I would say 'Chiquitita de Chihuahua'. They would reply, 'Say whut'? 'Why such a big, big name for such a tiny dog'?
(I wanted an impressive name for her pedigree records).
So much for details.
My family has had several Chihuahuas - all were lovable dogs but I'm not sure we ever wondered which 'breed' they were.
There are differences of course but most are minor:
I guess we've had at least one of each and I agree - is there a reason you wish to know the breed?
They are usually all very good companions and need to be loved for just being there.
