orange dog breeds :: Article Creator 12 Dog Breeds You've Probably Been Mispronouncing All Along Creativebird/Getty Images Xoloitzcuintli (show-low-itz-QUEENT-lee) Even if you master the "xoloitzcuintli" pronunciation, you probably won't see this rare dog breed walking down the street. But if you do, the itz is pronounced "eats." Luckily, this doggo has a fetching nickname that's perfectly acceptable to say: xolo, pronounced "show-low." The xolo is a popular dog breed in Mexico known for its temperament and signature hairless, hypoallergenic coat. "A xoloitzcuintli is a goofy, playful breed that likes to be with their family," says dog groomer Caitlin Wright, who has owned a xolo herself.
