Apple vs deer head chihuahua
The Chihuahua is easily identified by the shape of the head which is either apple shaped or a deer head (because it looks like that of a deer). The apple or deer head shape does not imply two breed but rather just one breed with different shapes of the head. Therefore the apple and deer references are an unofficial or layman’s way of referring to the Chihuahua breed based on the shape of the head.
The Chihuahua has one of largest variations of all dog breeds in terms of their sizes, shapes, coat length and colors.
They come in a broad range of colors such as black, sable, fawn, rare whites and blues, chocolate, brindle, tri-colored etc.
Some Chihuahuas have long bodies and long slim legs which makes them taller than those with compact bodies and shorter legs.
The breed standard expects the Chihuahua’s body length to be longer than the legs but the deer head Chihuahua has slightly longer legs than the body length.
Deer head Chihuahua can get as big as 10 to 12 pounds but the breed standard states that when the size is over 6 pounds, the Chihuahua stands disqualified.
The snout of the apple head Chihuahuas are shorter with a pronounced jaw line than those of the deer head, which are narrower and longer. However there are some apple head Chihuahua that have long snout like those of a deer head.
The deep “stop” (the 90 degrees that can be seen between the forehead and the snout) of the apple head Chihuahua makes its eyes appear more pronounced than those of the deer head Chihuahua which has a sloping forehead. The chihuahua cross with poodle is called the chipoo.
