Chihuahuas are a small but proud breed known for their companionship, loyalty and affectionate nature. They are feisty, little dogs that love life and attack it with a gusto. According to the American Kennel Club breed standards, the dog should be well balanced and not weigh over six pounds. The head is the most distinctive feature. The eyes are full and round and convey a saucy expression. Ears are large and erect and should flare to the sides at a 45 degree angle when relaxed. This particular Chihuahua fits all those characteristics, ten year old Speedy Gonzales.
