Here at Hockenhaus we raise the "Deer Head" or "Deer Type" chihuahua. WHAT IS A DEER HEAD??
A deer head chihuahua in our opinion is the way to go when it comes to chihuahuas! Instead of the traditional "applehead", the deer head chihuahua has a narrower and longer head and muzzle, has longer legs and no "bulgy" eyes. Typically, the appleheads are more prone to eye problems and also prone to more respiratory problems because of their noses being shorter and compact. The Deerhead has a much longer muzzle, therefore less problems! Deerheads are also less prone to eye protrusions. They basically look like tiny, tiny deer!
This is one of our females Sasha. She is a beautiful red/rust, smooth coat Chihuahua. She is standard size, and weighs 5 lbs.
This is Sophie. She is fawn and white, smoothcoat. She is what some people call a "Tea-Cup Chihuahua". She weighs 3 lbs and is very petite.
Our male, Spike is hard to photograph with an average camera. He is very tiny! He is also what people like to call "Tea-Cup". He is black and white, smoothcoat and he weighs 3lbs.
