My Photography...and my subject(what breed is she?)

CH@Dbee · 08-07-2008, 10:08 PM

im new around here guys and was hoping somebody could let me know what breed/breeds my puppy is. she is 7 months old and i got her about 4 months ago from a breeder that claimed she is a "chorkie" aka chihuahua and yorkie but im thinking thats not really what she is. im hoping some of the more knowledgeable people on this forum would give me their opinions on what she really is.

the "rat" dog is in her...i can see it too

a few people said maybe Pomeranian....

i surely dont know LOL

I see Chi and maybe Pom...you got her from a breeder? I hope you didn't pay much cuz I don't see yorkie in her at all. Or maybe she's like a puggle...none of them look the same and sometimes there is more pug than beagle or vice versa.

At any rate she really is a cutie...she doesn't look very big...how much doe she weigh?

i paid 350 for her....im not really worried about it because cause in the end she is awesome LOL its not a big deal on what exact breeds she is but itd just be cool to get some more peoples opinions that know more about this stuff than me.

last week at the vet she came in at a beastly 9.7lbs

What Meg said! Mine are all spoiled...up to a point. Then they just become obnoxious! Keep her slim and trim so she will be healthy and have a long life! She is a keeper that's for sure

meg&bernie · 08-08-2008, 10:12 AM

That's for sure....obnoxious. Mine is probably borderline. But that's what you get for not having any human babies and only having one dog! Oh well, at least he knows he's loved!

Cute, first of all.

if shes almost 10lbs now, probably top off at 12? 15lbs? Most people breeding yorkies to chis are using smaller parents than 12lbs. Maybe a bigger breed in the mix? Did you see either parent of the puppy?

Yeh, well you have only 1 who's borderline obnoxious; I have three!

At times they are difficult to like but I always love them.

also not smart to spend that kind of money on a mixed breed dog. But anyway. Cute dog good luck with her.

yeah my girlfriend just HAD to have one when we saw a chorkie a girl had at a car race. after we got home we looked and they were going from 300 all the way up to 600 bucks.

even if i would have paid 1000 for her i wouldnt be upset cause she is our baby and provides countless hours of entertainment and joy. she was worth the $350 we paid for her. i have just been wondering what breeds she REALLY is. we are really thinking she is a rat terrier/chihuahua mix now the more we have looked into it lately.

Dakota Spirit · 08-12-2008, 07:33 PM

I was thinking possibly some Rattie in there as well. Chi/Rat is not an uncommon mix either - especially when it comes to these sorts of things.

It'll be slightly easier to tell once she is older and grown into herself - in the mean time though I wouldn't bet on Yorkie. There aren't any characteristics that I see suggesting such a mix.

Enjoy your new puppy
