@Jason Reyes That is a fat lie, if you did some research you will find out that is a lotta bollocks. Malamutes ancestors are no older than 2k-3k years and the modern malamute was bred out of alaskan sled dogs and european dogs during the 1920s.
Saw male "sholo" in grocery store today in Southern California...everyone but me knew what breed it was. He was the calmest animal I ever met! He came to my wheelchair & put his face on my arm. I felt so happy... I've never had a pet dog but if I could I want one like "LaLa" today. Great video.
My childhood dog was a xolo. Sweetest little guy ever. Love you Raffi, you were always such a good boy. If there is an afterlife I'll be glad to see you there.
My little guy (4.5 lbs) was a "coated" Xolo. After 11 years together, 24/7, I just don't know what I am going to do without him. I think he was 4-5 yrs old when I rescued him. He passed away three weeks ago. His ghost haunts me. I see him everywhere. He was the most steadfast, "velcro," magnificent companion. Careful falling in love with a Xolo.
Also it's important to say, according to the Mexica Legend, the first step when began your trip to the after life, (that takes 4 years) is cross a river, in order to to that, you need the help of one Xolo dog, if in life, you hurt or be cruel with dogs, they will not help you and you will stuck between the living and the dead. Also the skin color was important, if they have dark skin you'll not be able to follow in the dark, if it a ligth tone, they dont want to help you, because they will get stain. That's why this blue gray or chocolate color was appreciated.
@@shericontrary2535 Yes and no, xolo in Mexico is pronunciated (at least from what i've heard in my 21 years of life) "Sholo", the "sh" sounds like the beginning of the word "shoal". However, cholo is pronounced like the beginning of the word "chest".
I read somewhere that they only guide you if you where good with dogs is that rigth? Also, i'm not mexican, nor a religious man, but DAMN i would love to be surrounded by these beautiful dogs 😁
I recently had to put my Xolo down after a very long and loving life due to health complications. One of the most intelligent and emotionally sound dogs I have ever had/met. He had one of the strongest personalities ever. He was incredibly loyal. Will love and miss him forever.
we've started getting these in Australia and I've got a coated standard size. In the few months I've had him I can already say how loyal and smart he is!!!
I'm Australian and have absolutely fallen in love with this breed. And if it's if the breeder is who I think it is. I absolutely love her breeding methods.
10:28.....This is the most beautiful creature I have ever seen. I've never seen this breed before this video! I physically cried at how resplendent this creature is!! 😍😍
My Xolo died 2 months ago & she was the best friend I've ever had.....😢 I miss her every second of every day! Xolo's are VERY SPECIAL pups! I still have 3 other dogs but the bond just isn't the same....they are great, just not like my Monster girl was😥 It always felt like Monster & I had 3 dogs..... Y'all are so lucky to have the best breed of dog ever! 🐕
good job for you doing your research!!! not lots of new breed owners do this. make sure to keep up on exercise and mental stimulation and your dog will be very happy and healthy! very cute name also!
This video made me cry happy tears :) I had a beautiful street dog who passed a year ago, aged 17 ish. You basically described my boy, right down to the satellite ears and the ability to shoo you off to bed when you’re about to get a migraine. He looked similar to your dogs too, only he had a lot of fluffy, sandy coloured hair lol. Thank you for telling us about your beautiful dogs, it must be a huge honour to share a bond with one xx
I have one for 6 yrs, I have had a lot of dogs. And I must say that she is the most loving dog i have ever had. Mine has black hair. Also an excellent watch dog.
My fur nephew is a mini xolo that my sister rescued seven years ago. Most of the time he lives in the city, but occasionally gets to play being a farm dog. Even taught himself how to herd sheep after watching his BFF (an Icelandic sheepdog) do it. He is SO smart. If A = B, and B = C, he knows that A = C, too. Living with him is more like having a roommate than a dog. :)

Ohhhh thank you. I wanted u to do one about them, i have one at home in the caribbean we call it chyen fe in creole which litteraly means « iron dog » they are believed to be spiritual beings who protect you and your house from anything spiritual. And trust me with mine i have seen things with my xolo. He tends to look directly in your eyes ( it almost seems like you are looking at a human) , they feel when you are sick and just stick on you to warm u up. . I love mine so much ... thank u again zeke
My dog once talked to me in a dream and told me my grandma was ill and would die the next week, he told me to buy her red roses, and the week after she passed away, she said red roses were her favorite.....
My Xolo Boy Timmy who lived to be 15 has come through "the veil" more than once, with a Xolo Bark, scratching and tongue clucking. I know he is around me still. Yes, you have to live with a Xolo to understand their uniqueness.
I have never had any close contact with German Shepherds. My Xolo washed himself like a cat and had very little odor. His paws did have scent but basically he was a very clean dog. In his older age he needed a little help keeping his backside clean more regularly. @@UnleashedEsX
Hairless dogs really are the BEST dogs I've ever owned....the kid in my profile pic is the best friend I've ever had.....smartest, sweetest & surly the funniest! 😁
My wife and i were traveling Baja and stayed at at camp site. I woke up early to head out with my chocolate lab for his morning walk, outside our rig was a xolo. My first thought was the dog from the movie “i am legend “, or it was sick. It turned out to be super cool dog,big and muscular. He and my dog played and ran around like buddies......i have wanted one ever since but it gets -30 in winter here so not to good for a hairless dog lol
Believe it or not, xolos are actually fairly popular in the Scandinavian countries and Russia. They need clothes and booties for when it's cold out, but otherwise they adapt pretty well. Just don't expect then to spend a lot of time outdoors during the winter. XD
Xoloscuintle the dog that according to the mexica/Aztec tribes would guide through the underworld until you reach the Mictlán (resting place) it is astronomical the resemblance of the Egyptian underworld god "Anubis" two different cultures separated by thousands of miles but with the very same correlation about death 💜
Got my Xolo from a shelter but he has hair on his head, his tail and on the paws. He looks so old because of no hair on his face. He has only 3 paws as his left front paw was amputated after a Truck hit him. He was nearly 1 year at a shelter. I love him very much - he is the boss now of our 4 other dogs. He is our "police dog" - if the others play to harsh, he divides them so nobody is accidentically hurt. He has only three legs but he runs fast - little speed is his his only problem. The others willl lower theur runspeed when playing together so he can have joy playing together. He is very protective - if my gardener go to near to me he growls (seen him twince ) He accept strangers if i tell them to enter but he is very protective if they dont keep enough distance to me - he growls. I love my Xolo from the shelter. I see him, he licks my hand, i fell in love with him at the shelter. We was friends at first sight. He is a very friendly dog to our other dogs, my husband. But i see he protects his friends.
This is my favourite dog breed. They're amazing. The Mexican people believe that they can treat rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune disease, because they are so warm! It is also believed that the common chihuahua is derived from the Xolo. Which, if you look at the breed shape (not size) makes sense. The head is very similar, as is the chest. So what probably happened, was that the village smaller dogs evolved into the chihuahua and developed more fur over time. This may also be why chihuahua are also very protective and make good "alert dogs" as well as seizure alert dogs. The Xolo also has very little known breed illnesses, due to their lack of human breeding for a long period of time. Anyways, great dog. I love them and what they mean for their culturem
I had a coated fall in my lap. She was abandoned and the shelter didn't know what they had. I feel so lucky. She is amazing! Im training her as a service dog for PTSD, anxiety and health monitoring. Her instincts are unreal. I've only had her for six weeks and she's learned so much.
Just a lil fun fact, there’s a Mexica god called Xolotl, one of the many that were associated with death, and it was inspired, obviously, by this dog. That’s how important they were.
They are amazing. Super intuitive and very dignified. I have met a few but never had one as a companion. They have amazing presence. I wouldn’t be able or want to have one in Canada. I prefer the standard but perhaps a coated dog. I really appreciate this documentary.
Oh, they’re gorgeous .. I wish I were younger, I would love to have one. Your presentation about them was fantastic...humorous, informative, devoted...very real. Thank you so much.
Oh yeah I'm so getting a xolo when I get my own home. They are so beautiful. When I was a little girl probably 7 I had the change to meet and pet one at a museum in Mexico city and I fell in love with the dog, he was so beautiful and something about the breed being so closes to my ancestors its just so beautiful and I want to expericed what my ancestors did.
They really have Egyptian faces, they have the look of Egyptian pharaohs. Really cool. I'd love to have one, one day but I don't believe in breeding only rescuing.
@@birblover6423 Thanks for the tip! I live in Scotland so it might be a bit hard to get one over here but at least now I know! And if I ever have the money to do it then fantastic. Thanks :)👍🌸
@@spoderman5481 I have never heard of it,but I'll check it now. Cool name. You can also look croatian breeds such as tornjak,posavac hound and istrian hound
I own 2 xolos and all they do is sleep all day! They are my shadows though and my best friends! I have a toy and miniature size, I used to have a standard size that looked like the black one in the beginning. Chili my miniature boy chased down a black bear that was in my backyard last spring and he doesn't have teeth lol so don't know what he would do if that bear fought back.... maybe he freaked out the bear by the way he looks! #xolomama #xoloitzcuintli
I have a Mexican hairless (the one in my profile picture) & people tease me she can scare off robbers by them thinking they're seeing a real live chupacabra! 😳😳😳😳😳 I happen to think she's beautiful.....she's the best friend I've ever had & I couldn't love that little gargoyle more! 😉
That was an amazingly informative video! The cultural artifacts and the folk art paint a fascinating tale of how we bonded with dogs a long time ago. Here's how it played out with these dogs in the American continents. These dogs are super cute and smart, too :) Great footage, Zeke!
awww so glad i found this video. we have a beautiful “toy” Xolo, her name is Luna Paloma Blanca We lived in the Hill Country of Texas, so it wasnt too far of a drive to fetch her from very South Texas. She is the best dog we have ever had. She is a super healthy 15 yr old. Oh and yes she has the intense Xolo stare to yr soul and back. She was extremely easy to train.
I’m expecting a baby female Xolo spring coming up. I can’t wait to have a dog from my Mexican/Aztec roots. Can’t wait to haven’t beautiful Goddess playing and roaming my home and my life 🥰 💕
I own the coated XOLOITZCUINTLI and just love my guy. He is the most devoted and intelligent dog I have ever owned, and I have owned quite a few in my 7 decades.
Such a great video showcasing this unique breed and it's long standing companionship steeped in Mexican history. I like to think of this breed as an Ancient Dog God
Hi, I know I am a bit late bit apart all those things xolos are real survivers, when spain invaded the mexican natives thay saw xolos as living proof of "false gods" and tried to hunt them down to extintion
I love my little mamas Yaretzi. I’ve had dogs as a kid but she’s definitely my favorite. I’ve been told she’ has a big personality and it’s so true! Very loyal indeed ♥️
Nearly got a standard xolo several years ago, sadly the breeder and I disagreed over castration, so as I wouldn't have an uncastrated dog, the breeder decided not to sell. So ended up with a rescue mut, and two months ago got my doby puppy. After the lose of the best doby in the world (maybe a little biased) 8 years ago, I eventually could open my heart to another. 💕 This video made me think of what might have been. But am happy as a pig in pooh with my two current nutters.
I have a xolo and he is super smart...within 3-5 days we will learn pretty much anything...high energy...when I have to do something around the house he knows and sits next to whatever I have to do like if I need to sweep he would sit by the broom if I’m tired he sits next to my bed...the ears are very informative for them I know what he wants based off his ears
My uncle in Mexico saved a xolo from being sacrificed and sent it to us in California. At first he was so shy and scared but he learned that we cared for him. My uncle ended up rescuing another xolo(female) so we jump at it. They bred and we got 3 hairless and 3 coated. One of the hairless ended up not making it. But we still have them. Everyone that looks at them ask us if they’re hyenas lol but the 3 coated Xolos look different 2 look like a black Labrador and gold Labrador and one like a German sherperd(he has long crazy hair) and they get surprised when we say they are all the same breed. They are all lovable and we love them! And yes they are really warm when you cuddle with them lol
Stop lying if you were native you’d know their name was the Mexika, not aztecas, and also there’s not that many full native nahuas around, they were raped, and more killed than groups like the maya, and purépecha
I've noticed a lot is true about this video. My mini is good at running chickens around. And she responds to me with a touch usually. Very good at keeping you warm. Doesn't really like other dogs or people yet very gentle when handled. She has a little grey hair on her head and tail. She definitely loves sunbathing and outside. Her teeth are bad but I feed her meats and cut it up small. She's very loyal but independent.
If you own one of these dogs you literally own a relic. This breed is ancient
they're so rare even Mexicans get excited to see them (im Mexican)

So are the people from where they come from but in the USA , they’re demonized as illegal aliens and I’m not talking about the dog
@@thedawg1632 Because the people that immigrate from Mesoamerica into the U.S. illegally *are* illegal aliens. Cmon man
Bull E World and you guys are smuggling drugs and prostitution.. if you know America don’t like you why come over here? That’s common sense!

I felt so happy... I've never had a pet dog but if I could I want one like "LaLa" today.
Great video.
That’s awesome
Lovely 😊
Ps. His name is Yali but I call him Ya Ya
Great
And unfortunately that was a fake service dog which is illegal in the US
I miss my xolo best dog ever. Passed away at 21yrs old.
Love you Cena
Michelle Jackson Espinosa i got dogs too
21 ? you lucky man
Geez! 21!?! That’s incredible!
My chihuahua only made it to 13. R.I.P
Xolos are one of the most ancient breeds in the world so they’ve evolved naturally rather than artificially, which is why they’re so healthy.
Normally I kinda hate hairless animals but these are straight up regal
We call my little Xolo a princess because she is so elegant. She moves gracefully and sits like a queen. They really are something else.
-_- hate is a string word never hate a animail
@@wildtonic1794 I hate people like you :)
Xolos look so awesome! I think their regality comes from looking like statues and since they look like Anubis, it works.
We got a Sensitive Sally over here
First thought on seeing the thumbnail: It's Anubis!
Ikr xD
They do look like hairless jackals
My Xolo's name is Anubis lol we call her "Nunu" for short
@@SillyLittleDeadHead aww
@@SillyLittleDeadHead aw where did u get her? I really want one 😔
My childhood dog was a xolo. Sweetest little guy ever. Love you Raffi, you were always such a good boy. If there is an afterlife I'll be glad to see you there.
In aztec culture Raffi will guide you in the after life
Ima cry man ... chill
Raffi is waiting for you in the afterlife so he can guide you!!
Your dog won't be just your dog if you see him again in the afterlife... he'll be your spirit animal.
Didn't your parents love you?

I have one only 5 lbs he's now 10 years old .. rescue as well 7 years ago he is the boss under me in our pack..He is a best
did he shed?
Extraordinary looking breed. They look Ancient...
native native . It’s because they are
They are ancient since Aztec civilization
They look like the dog statues from Egypt
native native they were in the Mexican Ancient Aztec Empire
Kinda like Anubis
Not sure why this was recommended to me but I did watch the whole damn thing at 4 am.
😂😂😂😂
doing the same as i comment this
It’s 4am right now and I’m watching it 😂
lol man same
LOL!
Also it's important to say, according to the Mexica Legend, the first step when began your trip to the after life, (that takes 4 years) is cross a river, in order to to that, you need the help of one Xolo dog, if in life, you hurt or be cruel with dogs, they will not help you and you will stuck between the living and the dead.

So the ones who ate their Xolo dog got stuck in limbo.
A darker dog they say, the dog has more experience helping souls, a lighter toned dog is still inexperienced
@@V.E.R.O. good!
Only advanced souls could see the dark Xolo.
Anibus does same
These dogs will guide your way to the Mictlán according to the Aztec culture.

Does she sell them?
Tell your Tia I’ll send her $200 meet me in Tijuana 😆
Can i get one?..i live in cali

I was not expecting to like these, but man those completely hairless ones are attractive! Great video!
Fun fact there is a mexican soccer team called after them:
Xolos de Tijuana
Play in Liga MX
I’ve been watching videos about Xolos all morning. My husband and I just paid our deposit for one and I couldn’t be more excited.
How did it go with your xolo? Let us know sis !
Where do you get one ?
Would like to know any updates interested in one my self would like some advice

They are amazing. Super intuitive and very dignified. I have met a few but never had one as a companion. They have amazing presence. I wouldn’t be able or want to have one in Canada. I prefer the standard but perhaps a coated dog.
I really appreciate this documentary.
Oh, they’re gorgeous .. I wish I were younger, I would love to have one. Your presentation about them was fantastic...humorous, informative, devoted...very real. Thank you so much.
Thanks to this video I just gained respect for this breed.
I ran into one of these today and asked the owner about her. The most amazing dog ive ever seen! wow these dogs are beautiful
I've always thought Xolo's were such cool looking dogs.
Oh yeah I'm so getting a xolo when I get my own home. They are so beautiful. When I was a little girl probably 7 I had the change to meet and pet one at a museum in Mexico city and I fell in love with the dog, he was so beautiful and something about the breed being so closes to my ancestors its just so beautiful and I want to expericed what my ancestors did.
I'm a subscriber, and I have been waiting for a documentary about xolos for ages thanks man.
They really have Egyptian faces, they have the look of Egyptian pharaohs. Really cool. I'd love to have one, one day but I don't believe in breeding only rescuing.
Jen Dark Energy 384400 in southern Mexico a good amount end up in shelters :).
@@birblover6423 Thanks for the tip! I live in Scotland so it might be a bit hard to get one over here but at least now I know! And if I ever have the money to do it then fantastic. Thanks :)👍🌸
You're too cheap to buy an expensive dog, don't beat around the bush lol.
@@xxxxOS so you do believe in breeding.
@@xxxxOS left a hefty donation, doubt.
These dogs are beautiful, and lovely personalities
My dream dog😫 I cant wait to adopt one one day and purposely name him Dante
Very well informed, honest, thorough profile of an uncommon breed.
One of the most striking looking dogs I've ever seen. Beautiful!
Imagine going to your friends house and their dog says you have cancer
real goon 🤣
Lmao
😂😂
I thank the dog
Then I totally get why they named the dog wmd. Yeah, not weapons of mass destruction. Wonder if they can detect the rona? .
Beautiful dogs they're so majestic
I need one of these dogs. I think they'd be the perfect therapy dog for my wife and I!
16:26 omfg I want one they look like Anubis and I'm allergic so it would be a very good thing maybe :D HE'S ABSOLUTELY STUNNING
Im so happy you found your breed. I hope you get yours. Love hugs and happiness🌹🌺❤
I’m glad that dogumentary does less popular breeds. Hope that one on the Abruzzesse mastiff will be out soon
Yeah me too. I am hoping to see some of the croatian breeds here
@@matkotalic823 I'm hoping to see the Tazy, it's a sighthound from Kazakhstan
@@spoderman5481 I have never heard of it,but I'll check it now. Cool name. You can also look croatian breeds such as tornjak,posavac hound and istrian hound
@@matkotalic823 I've only heard of the Tornjak out of the 3 breeds you mentioned, but I'll check out the other 2.
@marvin mastiff called "cane da pastore maremmano abruzzese"
I own 2 xolos and all they do is sleep all day! They are my shadows though and my best friends! I have a toy and miniature size, I used to have a standard size that looked like the black one in the beginning. Chili my miniature boy chased down a black bear that was in my backyard last spring and he doesn't have teeth lol so don't know what he would do if that bear fought back.... maybe he freaked out the bear by the way he looks! #xolomama #xoloitzcuintli
Where did u adopt them
How much did them cost?
I have a Mexican hairless (the one in my profile picture) & people tease me she can scare off robbers by them thinking they're seeing a real live chupacabra!
😳😳😳😳😳
I happen to think she's beautiful.....she's the best friend I've ever had & I couldn't love that little gargoyle more! 😉
@@goatkoala573 if you want a pure breed around 2k if your lucky to get one for 500 pick him up asap cause these dogs are really really rare
she mentioned they chew everything, is it possible she just didnt train them well enough? how do yours go? cheers
My grandfather had one in Mexico and the dog were pretty much unknown and now I see an article or video about Xolo's everywhere. Lol
Compared to a lot of other hairless animals, these are really good looking dogs.
I used to have one when I was a kid.
He use to do my math homework instead of eating it.
Hector Aguilar no one gives a fuck.. don’t be a dick
Kkkkkkkkkkk
I was there so can back this up
16:29 damn this one is amazing
Very beautiful dog! I have a soft spot for hairless dogs!
This is the coolest breed. In literally every way
That was an amazingly informative video! The cultural artifacts and the folk art paint a fascinating tale of how we bonded with dogs a long time ago. Here's how it played out with these dogs in the American continents.
These dogs are super cute and smart, too :) Great footage, Zeke!
I’m from Mexico and have never considered this breed but now I think I just might.
awww so glad i found this video. we have a beautiful “toy” Xolo, her name is Luna Paloma Blanca
We lived in the Hill Country of Texas, so it wasnt too far of a drive to fetch her from very South Texas. She is the best dog we have ever had. She is a super healthy 15 yr old. Oh and yes she has the intense Xolo stare to yr soul and back. She was extremely easy to train.
I have a three year old...found it one the side of the highway in Mexico....most amazing dog and I have had dogs all my life....
I saw one of these only one time in my life. It was a service dog! It was beautiful
I’m expecting a baby female Xolo spring coming up.
I can’t wait to have a dog from my Mexican/Aztec roots.
Can’t wait to haven’t beautiful Goddess playing and roaming my home and my life 🥰 💕
What gorgeous dogs!
I own the coated XOLOITZCUINTLI and just love my guy. He is the most devoted and intelligent dog I have ever owned, and I have owned quite a few in my 7 decades.
Such a great video showcasing this unique breed and it's long standing companionship steeped in Mexican history. I like to think of this breed as an Ancient Dog God
Love the history and info. Thank you. I have a Standard Xolo, 8 months old and watched this when researching before I got her.
I have a toy xolo dog! He is super sweet, and really cuddly. I really recommend the breed, they are so lovely to have and overall great companions! :)
I love my mastiffs and bully breeds but I would love to one day have a xolo. Future dream dog. They are gorgeous and I love how smart they are.
16:24 Jeeezz!!
* So ancient
* So Anubis
* So beautiful..
* a Living beautiful Statue ❤❤❤
Hi, I know I am a bit late bit apart all those things xolos are real survivers, when spain invaded the mexican natives thay saw xolos as living proof of "false gods" and tried to hunt them down to extintion
Not anubis! Anubis was a damn jackal . And jackals were brown not black I think
I just love this breed and have 2, thank you for a good and fair presentation.
Xolos are my dream dog soon i will have one 😊
Keep dreaming buddy
Such magestic dogs. Thank you for this documentary, it is been very interesting
I love my little mamas Yaretzi. I’ve had dogs as a kid but she’s definitely my favorite. I’ve been told she’ has a big personality and it’s so true! Very loyal indeed ♥️
I have Dobermans and this sounds like a great breed :)
Haley Tate exactly the same
Dobermans and Xolos are my two dream breeds. Would love either one day or both! Beautiful looking animals.
I keep saying that my next dog will be a dobe. But it might be a Xolo.. Dobes and xolos are my 2 favourite breeds.
Moving to tijuana next year and kinda wanna go traditional with one of these
Don't the police out here rob the shit outta you and the fucked up streets fuck up your cars axles
Nearly got a standard xolo several years ago, sadly the breeder and I disagreed over castration, so as I wouldn't have an uncastrated dog, the breeder decided not to sell. So ended up with a rescue mut, and two months ago got my doby puppy. After the lose of the best doby in the world (maybe a little biased) 8 years ago, I eventually could open my heart to another. 💕 This video made me think of what might have been. But am happy as a pig in pooh with my two current nutters.
Best video I’ve seen up to now about this breed! VERY informative and nice 👌🏽
My grandparents had xolo dogs, they only have one now, the others passed away, but she's so sweet and her face is like a puppy ❤️
1:23 amazing looking dog! Looks so ancient with powers
I have a xolo and he is super smart...within 3-5 days we will learn pretty much anything...high energy...when I have to do something around the house he knows and sits next to whatever I have to do like if I need to sweep he would sit by the broom if I’m tired he sits next to my bed...the ears are very informative for them I know what he wants based off his ears
hairless + well-trained = my perfect future pet
My uncle in Mexico saved a xolo from being sacrificed and sent it to us in California. At first he was so shy and scared but he learned that we cared for him. My uncle ended up rescuing another xolo(female) so we jump at it. They bred and we got 3 hairless and 3 coated. One of the hairless ended up not making it. But we still have them. Everyone that looks at them ask us if they’re hyenas lol but the 3 coated Xolos look different 2 look like a black Labrador and gold Labrador and one like a German sherperd(he has long crazy hair) and they get surprised when we say they are all the same breed. They are all lovable and we love them! And yes they are really warm when you cuddle with them lol
Do your uncle and you breed them? I want one.
Beautiful dogs!
Hope to get a working/herding smooth collie and rough collie video!
I like this lady 👍🏽
Thank you for being responsible breeders and for the informative video!
Awww yess 😍 i have two Xolos
Shout out kay Lawson for keeping the dog breed alive and spreading their history.
I absolutely think the xolo are gorgeous! I will be doing more research and reaching out!! Thanks for this amazing video! ❤️
Very interesting breed. Thanks for this profile. Very informative.
As someone with Aztec heritage, I feel such a strong affection for this breed. Looking at them makes me somehow feel more connected with my ancestors.
They probably feel Specially connected
to us 😉
You should get one.
I thought you all were extinct. Pretty cool.
ThatDudeJCrash 😂
@thatdudecrash
Nope. We’re still here!
Stop lying if you were native you’d know their name was the Mexika, not aztecas, and also there’s not that many full native nahuas around, they were raped, and more killed than groups like the maya, and purépecha
I've noticed a lot is true about this video. My mini is good at running chickens around. And she responds to me with a touch usually. Very good at keeping you warm. Doesn't really like other dogs or people yet very gentle when handled. She has a little grey hair on her head and tail. She definitely loves sunbathing and outside. Her teeth are bad but I feed her meats and cut it up small. She's very loyal but independent.
