He was running scared down the street in heavy traffic. Really nice. Hes actually about 6 years old so he's not really a baby but hes my little man. (09/05/2006), People instead of saying you are going to BREED your dogs that you buy from pet stores (which is bad enough as it is..), why don't you just FIND this mix breed in shelters there are plenty of them! Your pup is really cute!! Also, i've been having major separation anxiety and crating problems. It has not helped that the "little one" is a bit under the weather (coughing attacks/tonsil infection due to the terrible conditions in Spanish Dog Pounds/Spanish Death Camps). She is 13 weeks old and weighs just short of 10lb. Where he sits and cries until I make him feel better. (04/26/2007), Here are my three babies. She has plenty of toys, water, a pee pad and an open crate and enough room to move around. She is going to be two this year. She loves people and other dogs. :) (09/17/2007), Here is a picture of my angel, Raoul Duke. We've had no problems with house training him and having him sleep alone. Do your homework, you must be ready for some work with this breedif you can make the commitment, the payoff is wonderful. They so yell at me to get another pup, but I won't. I love him, He's very funny, and every day he is playing with his toys. (05/24/2007), Here is a pic of our Cocoa..we are not quite sure is he is ChiPin or not, but we were told he was full Chi. I was wondering if they could be related? (09/22/2006), We have a Minpin and a Chihuahua. I was constantly being told he looks like a mini pin. Please help!!!! (07/09/2007). You will never regret getting one.Cambria - Stitch's mom, PS That's Stitch with her Aunt Amy over at her friend Jason's house who had that bee costume. (04/14/2007), This is my baby. They are min/chins, all are black with tan markings. A mix is the best dog to have. I have the misfortune of living next door to someone who has 7 minpins. Take the time to properly train your baby. I did figure out that if my ChiPin is pregnant, she will have pups near the end of Feb.07. Does anyone know a breeder/rescue where I can get one? Her name is Contessa and she is a riot. What a great dog! We think he is an angle and he is very grateful for his new family. this is my baby hercules!! (01/16/2007), this is my Miniature Pincher / Chihuahua Mix, her names nicki, in this pick shes about 6 but now shes 8 shes a load of fun and the whole family loves her (01/16/2007), Hi! (08/22/2006), Well I was a member of the Grant County Animal Protection Society and a foster parent. Pincher mix. she is about 6 years old. He loves other small dogs and the dog park. Of course, my usually uses them instead of going outside.LOL. ", You are correct, it's nose is too big for either breed, very very cute dog though, whatever it is! Nothing is safe! They are brother and sister from the same litter. We are having some problems with the adjustment to the "New Dog" in the pack. I love him, but he wont fit the carriers I got when he was newI think he is even going to get bigger! (07/11/2007), we were told by a vet that ours was a chi pure bred, but after looking at him more closely as he grew, we realized that his colors and his his ears were that of either a rot, or a min pinwe know now that it is a chipin mixwe love him either way! By the way, Stitch looks adorable. (07/22/2007), I'd like to let all of you know, that every single one of your babies are the cutest ever. (10/08/2007). (09/04/2007), We thought our dog was a dachshund-chihuahua-terrier mix. I am quite frustrated with the potty training aspect though. It was the best decision I've ever made! They will gain weight rapidly. (09/13/2007), Hi I really want a minpin/chi. This is turning out to be a wonderful cross, even though they are only 3 weeks old. Chiuahuas are also yappers and aggressive if not trained right. (10/22/2007), My puppy was abandoned by my husbands work. She is doing great the puppies are about 1 week old. Should I be worried about her gaining weight? The problem is they dont like to be told what to do! He's wonderful, can't say enough good things! I hope you can be as fortunate to find your Nacho too. And I think she would have a little tummy on her by nowdue date would have been around 02-23-06. best dogs ever! The 2nd pup, Zena, we found in Missouri. (03/26/2007), hello, I think I also have a min pin Chihuahua mix he looks like a min pin but face of a chiuahua, wish i knew more about them too (b)(/b)(b)(/b) (03/27/2007), I just wanted to let you know that Chihuahuas are usually one person dogs (for example some do not like men at all) so be careful because your dog could get that trait. every now & then.Denise,S.C. Alpha all the way. He is getting better, now he only cries for about 10 minutes or so & then in the morning when he hears us moving around. But she is just so very little. If he wants something he has found a way to get it. Prince is about 6 pounds. Here is a more recent picture of my puppy, Coco. I think he is cuter than a purebred chihuahua and a purebred min pin. She also eats hannah's food but she don't mind.they steel each others toys and treats. She has catfish whiskers on her chin, I HAVE ADORABLE FEMALE PUPPIES HALF MINIATURE PINSCHER HALF CHIHUAHUA THEY WERE BORN ON MARCH TH. His favorite toys have squeakers in them and he tears them up until he gets the squeaker out and then it is a "dead" toy!When he was 4 months old, we used small treats to teach him tricks. She is 2 and a half and very playful. Bye! Your little Hercules is adorable. He is doing beautifully. Shipping shouldn't be a problem. He's adorable either way! I think the picture says it all. (09/04/2007), In response to the chipin photo, I agree that Layla and Marley look similar to him. She is 3 months old and very cute! They are so adorable! However this walk thing every two hours is new. When i saw your dog i thought they must be family. He has accidents when the weather is bad, so we are really praying for better weather. (11/17/2005). I wasn't sure exactly what he was until I saw this forum. They are fun and lovable no matter what! To make a long story short; thanks to a great vet and lots of prayer she was the only survivor of the litter. How do I tell if my "chihuahua" is a chi / min pin mix? (b)(/b) (09/16/2007). they love playing with your clothes! He has made an excellent addiiton to our family. Her best time is when the kids are chasing her and she runs circles around them. I'm guessing that he is also. BUT! Anyways, I got him when he wondered into my yard, I got very attached to him and we tracked down the owners they said we could have him. She is my sidekick. He is one year and 3 weeks old. We have 4 females and 3 males. People also say he looks like he has shepherd, except for his sizeAny ideas? and 5 lbs. I am from Phenix City Alabama. and looks just like many of the chi/pins on this page. there were 5 but lost one. I also have another Miniature Pincher named Rusty. What do you think? He is with me in the house everywhere I go and if he is not he is in the trash or doing something he shouldn't, which is rare. (07/29/2007), I have a Chi/min pin and I have enjoyed this puppy named tiny since day 1. Where I live they wont allow Dobermans so I got myself a mini pin I love her alot and she is only 3 pounds so she is very fragile but she also can be very aggresive she has nipped at my husband and my son she is very ovrly protective of me and her space as she growls at my older dog if he tries to cuddle with me to close to her space. It's so funny. But I know she's got tiny legs and does tire after awhile. He gets along with every dog he meets (he even tried to get fresh with a pit), loves to play, and of course is the biggest cuddle pup ever. He runs away from her. But all in all, we totally love our "Papi." We names her Nitro because she was so full of energy. I am not sure why Paco does not have a tail. Anyway if anyone can let me know or post some recipes or email some I would soooo appreciate it. Also, dont leave food or water out will cause him to be picky. That way if she doesn't use the pads, its easier to clean up. Chiquita also loves going out and visiting new places! What do you guys think? (10/07/2006), We are the proud parents of 2 Chipin's( Chihuahua / Min. I own Sugar and my daughter owns Maxx a < Registered Min Pin> If you are interested contact me at Calikattt AT aol.com Thanks. We've never seen another, so it's great to see there are other people blessed with this spastic little angel. I don't mind a couple of times a day, but sometimes it's 6 or 7 times and she doesn't even have to go. i had doubts that my puppy was a full chihuahua because shes pretty big for a chihuahua- shes 4 months, and 5 pounds. I think he could be a chihuahua/min pin mix, at 14 lbs. He tends get a little aggressive towards larger dogs, small dog complex I guess. This dog is great! They all have really big ears, two of them are pointy, standing straight up and the boy's ears flop over (very cute). (06/02/2007), We were told he's a full chihuahua. They told me that is was a full breed chihuahua. I don't want to say no because she just gives me the saddest puppy face, but I can't keep walking her like this. I highly recommend these dogs, he doesn't have the shakiness of nippy habits of a chihuahua he is very good with children. i've had her for almost 2 months now, and she still hates her crate. His parents were both registered (mom was the chi and Dad was the Min Pin).This has been the most remarkable dog I have ever had. (03/25/2006), Rusty is my minpin/chi and he has been a blast.

We are trying to crate train & that is our only difficulty. When I first got him I trained him to do everything even do his business in a cat box. It was funy because someone sold him to us as a chihuahua, and we realized a couple of days later there was no way he was a chi-chi (we have a chi as well) but a mix! She is Black and brown markings like alot of these pics you have on her. or What Did I do? My question is.Does anyone have any suggestions on feeding. We were told that she was pure Chi. They said they would all like to come live with you because you must be a GREAT Mom for feeding your baby that way! I'm afraid that it may have happened last night, but the male (Chia) is still wanting the ChiPin!How long are the females in heat? When my now 6 month old pup was only 4 months he was already 7 lbs. Mine did it on 1 foot! I had a chi (JoCe) as a child and loved her - she wasn't barky or unsociable at all like some people think chis are, and some are. Somebody is spiold! (05/13/2007), I have a beautiful 3 year old mix. I think the main thing to remember, and this is for any dog, owners need to set the rules early and stick to them. Although if there are any out there that need a home, I will never close the door. her ears are cropped!! They are also very aggressive by nature WHEN NOT TRAINED RIGHT. If so, how long before puppies? Very hard to train still learning she is almost fully litter train`d but has accidents She is my dog only and hates men LOL gr8 with other dogs and the grandchildren she has a lot of energy she sleeps under the blanket every nite with me even when it is 90degrees out there she has to be underneath, but she is very precious to me she is part of the family now, we love her to bits she is spoiled so bad she wears a custom made 14k gold dogbone with 7 diamonds on a chain around her neck! Here is a picture of her with Gizmo (a paplion). It is VERY toxic to this breeds system and causes severe illness. The difference was that we consistantly trained him (yes was always yes and no was always no) and the other's were allowed to be undisciplined and the boss of the owner. Be happy, you've chosen a great mixed breed. I got him for approximately $60. the people before me spoiled him terribly. He has also taken puppy socialization classes and basic obedience classes, but they keep telling me general things; I was just wondering if anyone else on this page had an answer since you would know the "breed" more! Our dog tends to be a little hyper at times and can be quite stubborn. They are wonderful. I adopted him from a rescue shelter in Florida. He's a really energetic fun guy. (03/06/2007), Here is an updated pic of my -supposedly- min/pin. So i knew her since i was 3 or 4 years old. What do you think? I am very excited. Shes only about 1 1/2 month old. My mother in law wants to get a similar dog, do you know where we could find one? Roscoe is 19lbs of solid muscle yet I have seen his brother's and sisters as small as 2-4 lbs. He is not as high strung as the purebred breeds. He has behavior problems because we think he was kicked and hit. (08/24/2007), We adopted our dog, Enkidu, and were told that he was a chihuahua mix. This was very unexpected and a shock to me and my fiance lol. Heres a few more of my pupsorry, shes new to the family & Im like a new mom, (b)Editor's Note:(/b) She's adorable! I lost my chihuahua 1 year ago and have still not gotten over it. Have fun with your babies, they stay that size and sleep all the time only for a moment. I really really want to know!!! We've even trained him to wait at the door before going out. He appears to be a chi/pin based on pictures everyone has posted. Her name's Koko, but my friends and I have nicknamed her "The Sausage". nkygirl721 AT aol.com(09/19/2007). Can any one give me a bit of information regarding Chipin behavior. I am a vegetarian so this whole cooking meat thing is new to me. If you know of a breeder, please let me know. (01/17/2007), Bas..a Chia has a shorter nose than yours does, also according to the AKC, Chia's should not weigh over 6 lbs (at least for competition). I've had multiple other chihuahuas that have been potty trained no problem, but just like they say, Min pins's can be very hard to potty train, and I found that to be very true with my little one.I wouldn't trade him for the world though, you might just have to put in a little extra effort in that department :) (10/03/2007), This is a picture of my Deuce. It's true, dynamite comes in small packages! (08/08/2006). She does however believe that she is as big and strong as my Shepperd,and Tyson knows who the boss is (hehe)! Let him be a joy to you AND your neighbors! I can't wait to see what the puppies look like. What should I do? :( mia is loyal and loves to snuggle but sometimes very stubborn! HAHA! Despite this, I would recommend this loving breed to anyone. His name is Mathis. For the past year she has been great at either going on her pee pads, or going to the door to show me that she needs to go out. We think he's too cute for that. He even wants to drink milk when he sees her drinking milk. Can someone tell meif they happen to have puppies, will they be 3/4 Chi & 1/4 MinPin? If so, please contact me at bleonti(at)gmail(dot)com. i loved her from the first time i saw her. I can post pics again when they get older, but the way yours looks, I truly believe it may be a chi-pin. She's officially mine! i dont care i love him anyways.he is only 2 lbs 13 ounces so a lot smaller than a min pin?? so i feel like she was cheated out of her chihuahua characteristics. I'm looking for another pup same colors, same mix. Because his front feet turn out like dachshunds do. I try to feed her every day, but she only likes wet food. She's 23 months old and FREE, but she has not been spayed. Is there and Concerns we will need to know about with her giving birth? What do you guys think? i am so fortunate to have gotten her she is the best dog i have ever had the pleasure to share my home with. (01/17/2007), Jenniferthe paws look too big for a Chia, but I could be wrong. I do believe he is a a Chihuahua/M. She is my best friend and I never thought I could love an animal as much as I love her!! SHE IS SMART, SHE NEVERS BARKS. I adopted her from a shelter when she was 3 months old. His normal weight is right at 5 pounds.Thanks for any suggestions and comments. does anyone have some cute pics of puppies I am getting mine today she is 8 weeks old. But..after seeing this site.I think he is ChiPin for sure! Hunter is about three months old and we went to our first vet appointment together today. if you dont control him on the leash he will take control him/her self. (Ours love themat least until they tear them up, LOL) Our ChiPin (puppy,7months) will come from one end of the house to the other just to go to the pad..and that is waking up while in my son's bed! She is only 7 months, she loves to eat a lot but yet she is so very skinny. Both mine are brown (same color), but with some black on them, mostly the toes and a stripe down their back. You never know what the next week is going to bring! She will get something out of it and take off with it. She was born with Cocidia, which is an infection in the intestines that is passed down from the from the mother. (02/08/2007). It takes him awhile to warm up to new people, but other than that hes awesome! He has a gorgeous face, and is very socialized. i have a lot of pictures of her and i love everyone else's pictures. just learning about chinpin is a breed. We had adopted both pups through petfinder . When you purchase a pup I suggest that you see both parents. We adopted Abby for a shelter. (03/27/2006), I have a minpin/chihuahua Mix. We've never seen another, so it's great to see there are other people blessed with this spastic little angel. They require exercise just like any other dog- socialize them with other dogs adults children- there is nothing like a dog that you cant take anywhere. Sassy Ann was saved fromed a backyard Breeder! You will fall in love with it I promise. She has double dewclaws in her hind legs, and her ears always stay as you see in the picture! Smart dog. Can see by the face she is a smarty pants and will quickly take over if you let her, but she is beautiful. He's very protective of us and the children who stay with us. She is great with my kids unless they start horseplaying she will bark at them to make them stop she is like my babysitter.We also have an american bulldog puppy who is her best friend most of the time, she lets him know she is boss. We have 4 puppies, and they are ADORABLE at 3 weeks old. She is the best. I've seen a few others that have the same colors as him. (11/18/2006), I have a 1 year old Mini Pin/Chi. I'm sorry to babble. (09/04/2007), This is a photo of my baby boy, Marley. He's about 2.5 yrs old. Hey, this is Gabby my baby, when I got her I thought she was a chihuahua, but see looks now more min pin, so i think she must be a mix.what ever the case she is the cutest, sweetest, little angel to me that is. Zoey, our 1st we found in Georgia. (09/28/2007), I have a Min Pin. One answer to the question on crates, "i leave my puppy in our second washroom when i leave for an 8 hr work day. (06/26/2007), OH MY GOD you have the same dog as me! Weird huh since the Female is 100% Minpin and the male is 100% tan Chihuahua. I MEAN EXSPECIALLY SINCE THEY WOULDNT GIVE US PAPERS ON HIM OR LET US SEE HIS PARENTS, I JUST THINK IT'S KIND OF WEIRDluke (the tan one weighs 6 lbs) and fudgy-well hes a little over weight for a chihuaha -hes 12lbs and 8 months old. She gets separation anxiety because min-pins are very owner-oriented. (10/29/2007), This is my baby, Bazil. I love her to pieces, she has such a personality and has been fairly easy to train so far. We also have a 15 month hold Shiz Tzu, Eyore, and it's so funny to watch them play, and they get along great, although Contessa thinks it's great fun to chase him and grab his toys when he's not looking. (01/17/2007), Angieon training your puppy to go outsideI've used PeePee pads. From the day we brought him home, we held him and spoiled him like a baby. (08/12/2007), HI, THIS IS A ACTUALITY PHOTO'S TOBBY AND ALSO THIS IS CANDY, THEY ARE MY LOVED CHILDREN AND THEY MAKE HAPPY MY LIFE CONSTANTLY. I've got her on a healthy diet now and I've been walking her every day for like a 10th of a mile (weather permitting since I live in the NW). Marley is actually a chihuahua/yorkie mix (chorkie), but he looks a lot like many of these photos. Some people say min pin, some say italian greyhound, and others say jack russell. We adopted him at our local humane society. She is fine! She is FABULOUS! Your dog will make a wonderful forever friend if you will dedicate his first year to specific, consistant training. (03/27/2006), Brewzer turned 2 this month and could not be a happier dog! Buddy loves to lick a lot and when ever my friends come over buddy tinks on them because his excited! We just got a little chihuahua/miniature pinscher mix, he is 9 weeks and almost 2.5lbs. The Said She Was A Chihuahua Mix But I Think She Is min Pin Mixed With Chihuahua What Do You Guys Think, I have a 8 year old Chorkie Chihuhua/Yorkshire mix and I just got a Min Pin Chihuhua. any information reguarding this breed would be helpful. (02/01/2007), I am wondering as well. He does not care for children. Does this mean that the pups will be smaller? would like to take him out more often without him barking at everyone ! (07/14/2007), These cuties are Paco and Greta. (10/22/2007), I just adopted my little guy "Tazzie" (Tasmanian Devil) yesterday from my local animal control shelter. (04/06/2007), hi!! Loves to snuggle. He truly is a cute dog.
