Appearance

The one main thing they frequently have in common is their upright ears, although some are known (rather bizzarely) to have very floppy ears, but of the same shape as a Chihuahua's when held up.
They are generally larger than Chihuahuas, yet smaller than Yorkshire Terriers. They have the size of a mini Yorkie perhaps. They have a dark tan fur coat, mixed with grey, and have large eyes. They usually weigh between 4–6 lbs (1.8 kg – 2.7 kg).

If one of the parents is a long-haired Chihuahua, the Chorkie will have a fuller coat than one who is part short haired Chihuahua. Dogs who are partly short haired often have very short (almost non-existent) hair on their belly and a wirey coat that requires a lot of brushing.

Personality

Chorkies are affectionate and energetic dogs, combining the trademark traits of Chihuahuas and Terriers. They are playful (especially with toys), and enjoy 'playing fetch'. Some prefer being total lapdogs and will sit with their owner for as long as they are allowed. They are very attached to the owner that they took to first. They will guard them, and get a bit jealous when their owner gives attention to another person or animal. As with fashion-concious owners of 'toy' breed dogs, owners frequently take to dressing their dogs in clothes.
