Is my Chihuahua racist?
I have found throughout the years that she hates Golden Retrievers with a passion!
She has never had a bad experience with one, and I've been her mommy from the start.
She also hates Golden Labs since they look somewhat similar... to her anyway.
In the past few years she will go out of her way to start a fight with one of these dogs.
This never happens with any other breed.
I have owned plenty of dogs and have never seen a dog hate a specific breed like this.
What would you call it?
What can I do about it?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

But boy, she did not like red-heads. The mere sight of anyone with red hair sent her into a tizzy. No idea why.
I found the following quote from this website
QUOTE ----
This breed is territorial, believing deeply in the pecking order, and will bully each other to establish their place in the order of dominance in their family group. Normally these issues resolve themselves, but if you find two of your pets are Alpha males/females, you'll likely have to resign yourself to keeping them separated.

Perhaps she is just a bit confused on which breed of Alpha females she needs to "take care of".

M$I've heard about it from others.

M$Dogs can see colors. They see fewer than we do: a dog rainbow would be dark blue, light blue, gray, light yellow, darker yellow (sort of brown), and very dark gray.

M$I thought of using that word in my question... but then I thought that people would think it's a typo. Maybe eventually 'breedist' will be used in these situations.
Since you are a chihuahua hater, would you be referred to as a 'breedist' or just anti-squirrel and rat? ;)
I tend to like rats. And I do say nice things about Chihuahuas when questions about banning Pit Bulls etc come up. But I am a Patriot, dedicated to thwarting Tufty and all his minions! Some have invaded my attic... I'm biding my time.....
