Chihuahuas are little dogs, with great big hearts and a Macho streak!

Is this common and does it have any kind of a ...

This past Wednesday Morning, I assisted my Chihuahua, in the whelping of her three healthy, beautiful baby girls. I noticed on all the puppies, that they all have a distinctive ridge of raised hair, along their backs. The ridge runs along the spine as a tapering line. It looks like the line, that The Rodesian Ridgeback has on it's back, except it's on Chihuahua Newborns. Thanks! Have A Great Day!!!

Never give up on someone you can't go a day without thinking about. 

Congratulations on the new puppies! I have 2 female chihuahuas I am totally in love with. I had them spayed because the vet told me it was dangerous for them to have puppies because they are so tiny to begin with. It would have been nice to have had their puppies; one big happy family.

If you're worried about your puppies and the ridge, call the vet. Better to be safe than sorry.
