Breed Highlights

The Xoloitzcuintli, or Xolo for short, is an ancient and rare breed known for its distinctive hairless body, though a coated variety also exists. A symbol of Mexican heritage, this breed combines elegance with a calm and affectionate temperament. Xolos are attentive companions and vary in size from petite toy to midsize miniature to sturdy standard. With moderate exercise needs, they thrive in both physical activity and relaxation time with their family, making them versatile pets for various lifestyles.
