 Chihuahua Breed Reference - Chihuahua History
The Chihuahua shares an astounding number of zoological and historical characteristics with the Fennec Fox, a tiny little desert creature billed as the “world’s smallest canine.” The fennec averages only 1 to 1.5 kg.
Unable to agree on species classification because of features that do not conform to the fox family, scientists finally assigned it a separate genus, fennecus zerda.
Fennecus zerda has long, thin, well furred, and somewhat flat feet that enable it to scoot about over the shifting sands.
