More about us


So you want to know more info on our breed:
The Chihuahua is possibly one of the cutest breeds(yep), small enough to be considered a pocket pet. They make excellent lap dogs and are great with children(good kids only!:). However, with small children we always recommend supervision because of this breeds small size. Because they never weigh more than 5 or 6 pounds and are from 6-9 inches high, they are an excellent choice for apartments or condos. They come in two coat types including long coat(Pinky) and short coat(Lola). There are many variations to their coloring but light tan is the most common. A favorite quality of the little Chihuahua is their "large" personality. Their small size does not deter them from thinking they own the world(Cause I'm a Boss!)! They are very friendly(right Kat?), playful and love attention. They love to play games and play with toys. They do not require an exercise regiment but do benefit from a walk at least once per week. The Chihuahua does not require any special diets, however, they are known for being finicky. (Their will is often stronger than their owners)(but not this one). Be sure that you choose a high quality food with small kibble for smaller breeds. We recommend trying a lamb and rice diet which is considered an allergy free diet. (we eat Beneful) Some smaller breed dogs are susceptible to skin problems related to allergies. Short haired Chihuahuas require less grooming than the long haired Chihuahua but both should be brushed at least once per week. This helps distribute the oils in the skin to keep skin and coat healthy. Bathing should be kept to a minimum to reduce skin irritations. check out http://www.petinfo4u.com/ for more info!
