I have a chihuahua and she's 4 lbs 10.5 oz. She is 4 years old and has an underbite with a snaggle tooth. Her ears don't stand up like other chi-chi's and so people are always asking, "what kind of dog is that?" The vet told me I could have her ears cut and pinned to make them stand but I thought that would be selfish of me. Why would I put my dog through pain just so she'd look more like a chihuahua? Besides, the ears, the tooth, and the small stature totally match her personality... she's a little hellion and she takes no bull from anyone! :) She's the cutest little nugget of joy. Her sister is a 70 pound collie mix. They are best friends. On our walks we constantly get comments about how ridiculously cute the pair are. How about you, what kind of dog do you have?
