Chachi looks like he might be Corgi and Taco Bell's ankle-biter...sure does have Corgi ears. Corgi's are natural ankle-biters, it is bred in them for herding cattle and originally geese in Wales. They've been around since about 920 A.D. They also used them now for companion dogs, as they are very loyal and always want to stay right by their master.
Dolly you mentioned that you didn't know what they were....well, your new 'lil gal looks to be one. She's beautiful and red-headed to boot. When Trooper was little, we thot that he might turn out a red-headed Tri(his papa was), but it's a good thing with his name of Parkys "H" Troop(Trooper) Stetson, he turned up with a black Stetson on his head. ;-))
We thought about the name of Parkys "H" Troop Scout, but the Sire for the litter was WR the Genuine Stetson and then when I asked Greg what brand of hat the Cavalry wore, he said, "Stetson," ever since the 1800's. The name just seemed to fit better.
Mama_Bear is that the little cutie that you had in the playpen at the
FReeper picnic last Fall? Sure is a cute little rascal and sure has grownl!!
Close. Taco Bell is in his genes, but the other component is Pomeranian. His ears are pure Chihuahua - he is known as a "designer" dog, a "PomChi".

Yes, that's him. Almost all grown up. We are the proud parents of a PomChi going through his difficult "teenage" years. We are just crazy about him, but what a challenge this head-strong little guy is sometimes! We start intermediate classes with him at PetsMart next week. I have little hope that a whole lot is going to change though. He will do anything we ask him to do when we have treats to give him. When we don't, his attitude is "forget it! Not doing it and you can't make me". LOL. (Of course, we DO make him, but it has no effect at all on the next time we show up treatless and give him a command.)
