So, the "apple-headed" Chis are more within the Chihuahua breed standard than the "deer-headed" ones. If you ever watch an AKC conformation show, you will see that the Chihuahuas shown look very different than most pet Chihuahuas out there. Some breeders who breed strickly for pets don't go by the standard and so a lot of the Chihuahua look has changed throughout the years. Not that we don't love them all the same, no matter what they look like! But all dog breeds need to have a standard so that a Chihuahua will look like a Chihuahua and a Pug will look like a Pug and so on, and so on.

Or why they're not just all apple heads or all deer heads? (My chi lack of knowledge showing again. LOL) You know, before we adopted Jaelyn I'd read tons of books on Chihuahuas and visited tons of websites to try to learn all I could about them and make sure they were the right breed for us... and it wasn't until the day she arrived and still up to this day that I realize I still don't really know anything about them compared to all the knowledge that's out there.
