Chis with floppy ears are not the standard in the breed, but they can still be pure bred Chihuahuas and have ears that lay down instead of stand up. Long haired Chihuahuas have their own lingo for their hair. Their tail hair is called the Plume. The hair on their legs is called Furnishings. And the hair falling from their ears is called Fringe.
