Help identify this breed!

Posted : 1/18/2011 11:43:26 PM

Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum. I need help identifying the breed of the dog in the pictures shown. Thank you. :)

Edit: Thank you everyone for the help & compliments! :) To those who asked, this is not my dog (yet) but I'm considering adopting it from a friend of mine.

Probably a Chihuahua/Pomeranian mix or maybe a pet quality longhaired Chihuahua.

I know, I know....it is a "Fluffy chestnut ball of furr" dog Big Smile

ETA: So very cute is it yours?

Pom/Chi mix would be my guess as well. His head and eyes looks very chihuahua but the long coat, color and tail look Pomeranian. cute!

Is this your dog?

I'd say that's a longcoated Chihuahua. Pet bred, and the dilute colors like chocolate and blue are very "in" with the BYB set right now.

Same thing I was thinking, Gina.

That's 100% cute dog. I agree with others on the long hair chihuahua.

The first pic makes me think Longcoat Chihuahua.... the second says Chi/Pom... very cute too.

I agree that he looks like a purebred longhaired Chi from pet lines.

Definitely looks Chi/Pom to me. So cute!

The ears, eyes and coat look chihuahua to me, but the nose looks more Pom like. I agree it could be a pet quality long haired chihuahua which would explain the nose. Cute dog either way!
