The Chihuahua (pronounced Che-wa-wa) comes from Mexico, where it has not been bred to a Standard. it is the smallest of the canine family, weighing from 23 ounces to 4 pounds. The legs are very slender and the body slight. The head is round, with pointed nose and large, outstanding ears. There is a characteristic SOFT SPOT ON THE TOP OF THE SKULL. 

The coat is short and fine. Fawn is the most desired color, black, also recognized, while pure white, though rare, is highly prized.
