I've never owned a mixed breed before and am really wanting to know what she is. Probably will be tempted to do a DNA test in the coming months. Anyway, the shelter thought she is 6 weeks old but if I had to guess I'd guess anywhere from 8-12. She still has all her puppy teeth. She's just over 5 lbs and quite a bit underweight and wormy (working on it). She has a ridiculously skinny tail, almost rat-like. My guess would be a chiweenie, or similar. Unless she grows a lot more. She seems petite though. Although, being in Mexico she could be a complete mixed bag. What do you think she is? http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.2163273008017.2134138.1432352206&type=1&l=f2c1af7644 Thanks!

Welcome to our designer mixes site. I am looking forward to hear many puppy stories and getting to know you.
