How rare are all black chihuahuas?

Question

I have an all black chihuahua pup, are they rare? I have never seen one.

Answer 1

You mean like oreo color? When there's not much light they look black and in the light they look like chocolate? If soo...I have one like that! and i think they're kind of rare because i don't see that many of them either.

Answer 2

Pretty rare I guess. I have raise chis for over 8 years and have never had an all black. There is always some white on it somewhere, chest, feet, tail. Also rare is an all white. Want to join a chihuahua group?

Answer 3

Solid black is a dominate trait. However since chihuahuas are allowed to have white in them, there is often white on them somewhere (often a chest stripe or white feet for example). It would take a solid black chi to breed solid black puppies. White is a on a different gene from black so it is active even if a dog has the solid black gene. Dogs like labradors are not allowed to have white so that gene says no white and the black is solid.

Answer 5

very long hair is nice but requires servicing and u have to grow it out for a long time

Answer 6

My brother has a black one. The dog's mom was fawn and the dad was black. Black is what the color of pups she had. Black is dominate over fawn.

Answer 7

It's all merely a matter of personal preference. I actually have short hair and guys like it. And i prefer a person with short hair over a guy with long hair because long hair tends to make guys look as well girly.
