Are short hair and long hair chihuahuas the same breed?
The official terms are smooth coat and long coat. They are the same breed genetically, but they are judged in different categories in dog shows. A smooth coat only means that it has short hair, the hair can actually be soft and smooth or wavier and coarser to the touch. There is no difference between a long coat chi and a smooth coat chi, except in the look.
