Beni is a miniture Chihuahua weighing in at 4.5 lbs. In this pose he looks to be in full attack when in reality he is in full stretch with a big yawn.

Beni's charms include his small size, outsize personality, and variety in coat types as his outer coat is gray and looks dusty and the undercoat is dark charcoal. He's all dog, fully capable of competing in dog sports such as agility and obedience, and is among the top 3 watchdogs I know. He loves nothing more than being with his people and requires a minimum of grooming and exercise.

Great capture perfect POV! If he only weighs 4.5 pounds you have made him look big enough to take on any pit bull. A fun photo, thanks for sharing.
