What exactly do you mean by "kinda not normal"? Can you explain what your seeing or maybe take a picture?

Take it to the vet! There is nothing wrong with a checkup, even if the pup is healthy. Have you tried to find the owners?

Have you called the shelter, called local vets.. to see if anyone has reported a missing chihuahua? Have you had her scanned for a microchip? If you have, and you plan on keeping her, she really SHOULD have a vet check, whether she looks healthy or not. If the dog is that young, the puppy shots may not be finished.. who knows, they may have not been started... that is very important..

So absolutely, the pup should be seen by a vet.

As what everyone else has advised... Maybe lack of funds is holding you back? Is there an animal charity that can help with costs? Her tummy could be anything but even worms can kill a pup of that age or at least leave it with a lifetime of trouble. Well done for taking care of the pup until it can be returned to its owners. (let's hope it has loving and worried owners out there somewhere).
