| Yes I think that too when he's wet. I think it's the shape of their head and how skinny they are! |

| Welllllllllllll. I'm thinking he seems a bit too Chi looking wet but oh well, whats done is done and I wouldn't even give him back anyway . It's just he was so much money to begin with and the thought of overpaying and getting a mix for all that money makes me a bit ILL. He does have all his papers and pedigrees , but I'm not so touched that I don't know how that can be worked |

| Ive seen yorkie chi mixes and even though they had the yorkie coloring you could really tell they were a mix. The face was much thinner and the ears longer than a yorkie. Also the leg hair was not as long.

| Thanks everyone... I just was so surprised when she was soaking wet and looked so different... well not different, but so much like a Chi. Oliver... I'm not sure what you mean. I think it perfectly reasonable that someone might be shocked or upset if they thought maybe they were taken in by a mix. I don't mean anything about the dog... but about a breeder who would do this. I also don't understand what you meant about a person questioning there Yorkie ????? If someone saw a yorkie wet for the first time and suddenly it looked like a wet Chihuahua .... what would be so strange to ask questions if they were a newbie? |
