I am happy to share that we’re headed to see Boulder‘s Own Lady Buffs play USC this afternoon. However, that limits my time window for writing this Featured Dog blog. So I figured out that I just have to write about a short dog. In fact, about the SHORTEST DOG! Hint: Fido approves.  Apparently the shortest-on-average dog is our own Chihuahua!

Our Official Dog Mascot, Fido, approves of this re-visiting of the generally shortest dog.

The Chihuahua Is Short In Stature And Tall In Love.

Chihuahuas are known for their small size, with an average height of about 6 to 9 inches (15 to 23 cm) at the shoulder. However, it’s important to note that individual sizes can vary within any breed. Despite their small stature, Chihuahuas are known for their lively and confident personalities. They are quite well known as ardent supporters of the Lady Buffs. They also present with either the familiar short coat, or with a longer coat.

They have been spotted spying out of purses, creeping out of clutches, peeking from pockets, and running to keep up with a slow-moving leash.  It is rumored, although I question the veracity of the report, that one was seen dribbling a basketball, setting up for a 3 point shot! This particular Chihuahua is obviously a BUFF FAN!!! You can tell by the intelligent glint in the eye, the excellent musculature, and the loving spirit.

May the wind be over your port bow, and may your sunscreen be thick.
