uñas agudas. Son mansos; son domésticos; acompañan o siguen a su dueño. Son recocijados; menean la cola en señal de paz; gruñen y ladran. Abaxan las orejas hacia el pescuezo en senal de amor. Come pan y mazorcas de maíz verdes, y carne cruda y cocida. Comen cuerpos muertos. Comen carnes corrutas.
\nCriaban en esta tierra unos perros sin pelo ninguno, lanpinos. Y si algunos pelos tenían, eran muy pocos.
\nOtros perrillos criaban, que llamaban xoloitzcuintli, que penitus ningún pelo tenían. Y de noche abrigábanlos con mantas para dormir. Estos perros no nacen así, sino que de pequeños los untan con resina que se llama óxitl, y con esto se les caye el pelo, quedando el cuerpo muy liso. Otros dicen que nacen sin pelo, en los pueblos que se llaman Teutlixco y Toztlan.
