Nice Dog Chihuahua
The Chihuahua is the smallest breed of dog in the world and is named after the state of Chihuahua in Mexico.
Description and standards
Breed standards for this dog do not generally specify a height, only a weight and a description of their overall proportions. As a result, height varies more than within many other breeds. Generally, the height ranges between six and ten inches. However, some dogs grow as tall as 12 to 15 inches. Both British and American breed standards state that a Chihuahua must not weigh more than six pounds for conformance competition. However, the British standard also states that a weight of two to four pounds is preferred and that if two dogs are equally good in type, the more diminutive or smaller is preferred. The Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) standard calls for dogs ideally between 1.5 and 3.0 lb, although smaller ones are acceptable in the show ring. Pet-quality Chihuahuas (that is, those bred or purchased as companions rather than show dogs) often range above these weights, even above ten pounds if they have large bone structures or are allowed to become overweight. This does not mean that they are not purebred Chihuahuas; they do not meet the requirements to enter a conformation show. Oversize Chihuahuas are seen in some of the best, and worst, bloodlines. Typically the breed standard for both the long and short coat chihuahua will be identical except for the description of the coat.
Chihuahua breeders often use terms like miniature, teacup, tiny toy, or deer headed, to describe puppies. These terms are not recognized by the breed standards and may be misleading.

Thinking of buying a tea pot chi-russell?
Okay, so now that the title has got your attention, I am not really thinking of getting the dog.
But I was reading the pets for sale bit in the paper and saw someone selling a litter of ‘gorgeous tiny teapot chi-russells for sale.’ I’ve heard of teacup puppies, and know there is no such thing, but since when have there been teapot dogs?! And what size compared to the actual breed standards would they class these as? Also, the seller was trying to sell these pups at £500! Do people actually go along with this? Any other opinions appreciated. Thanks.
Chances are, the seller is either trying to market something ‘extra rare’ or they’re simply confused and using the wrong byb-term.
If the dog actually stays smaller than normal (which there is no ‘normal’ for a mixed breed) it’s likely to be unhealthy–however these dogs usually grow to the same size or even larger than the expected size…normal for runts.
And yes, there are people stupid enough to fall for this scam. You’d be surprised just how many.
