Height is measured at the withers, the top of the shoulders. The head and ears extend above that line. The American Kennel Club breed profile gives 10-14 inches (toy), 14-18 inches (miniature), 18-23 inches (standard). Choose the sex or size variety above where the source separates them. A range describes the published listing, not the height of every individual dog.
Ranked by the tallest height its standard names (23 in), the Xoloitzcuintli is the joint 128th tallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the tallest dog breeds ranked.
Drawn at the same 10 in: Lancashire Heeler, Australian Terrier and Cairn Terrier. Same drawing, different listings: a Xoloitzcuintli’s, a Lancashire Heeler’s and an Australian Terrier’s figures are each the lower end of its range.
This is a published species or breed reference, not a prediction for an individual animal. Where a range is supplied, both ends appear with the reading. Shoulder height and head height are kept apart when comparing animals.
All 30 non-sporting dogs by height, tallest first, or every dog breed. To compare your own dog, measure it at the withers.
