Deposits to Hold a puppy of your Choice:

A Two Hundred Dollar non-refundable deposit will hold any available Chihuahua puppy for you, until it is ready to go to its Forever Home.  We prefer not to have our puppies leave before 7-8 weeks of age.  A tiny Chihuahua may not be able to leave until 10-12 weeks of age, depending on size, and maturity of puppy. We prefer you pick up your Chihuahua puppy in person, if that is not an option other arrangements can be made. We accept Cash, PayPal for deposits add 3.5%. Balance must be paid in Cash. No Checks will be accepted.

 

 
Registration:
 
All of my Puppies are SOLD with CKC registration papers. I do have a select few that can be Registered AKC for an additional Fee. This info will be posted on each puppy on the Available page.
 

 
Hypoglycemia:
 
Hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, is a health problem that affects many toy breeds of puppies between 5 to 16 weeks of age, especially extremely tiny or teacups and all owners must be on the lookout for it.

Hypoglycemia is recognized by a healthy puppy suddenly becoming weak, listless, depressed, unaware of its surroundings, and even unable to stand or walk. Advanced stages include seizures before lapsing into a coma, which is sometimes followed by death.

If your puppy becomes hypoglycemic, it is very important that you react IMMEDIATELY!!Give the puppy Nutro Cal, honey or Karo syrup. Administer the honey or syrup with an eyedropper or if the puppy is too week to take it, put it on your finger and rub it on the roof of its mouth. If necessary, pry its mouth open. Regardless of how you do it, make the puppy take the honey or syrup. ITS LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!!! Nutro Cal is a fast acting high calorie supplement and may be given off of your finger. Keep the puppy warm at all times and rub the puppy very easy, moving the head from side to side slowly rotating it, also move the arms and legs so the puppy will not get stiff. It may be necessary to give the puppy a couple of doses of honey or Nutra Stat to bring it back. If the puppy does not respond, CONTACT THE BREEDER OR GET IT TO A VET IMMEDIATELY!!!

Hypoglycemia can occur without warning if a puppy is place in a new home, misses a meal or is otherwise stressed.

You must remember that puppies eat very small amounts, yet they exert large amounts of energy. Your puppy should eat 3 times a day. We feed and recommend PMI EXCLUSIVE Chicken & Rice (Puppy Formula), which we have supplied a sample for you. DO NOT CHANGE THE FOOD FOR THE FIRST FEW WEEKS. If you wish to change the food later do so gradually, after the puppy has adjusted to its new home and life.

A puppy will play until it drops. It may play so much that it is too tired to eat. It is up to YOU as its new owner to be responsible. Very small puppies must sleep about 20 out of 24 hours. Please be very careful not to over-tire your new puppy, especially the first few weeks. It is up to you to establish a schedule for your new puppy, and your family, especially be aware of the amount of time children play with your puppy and make them aware that this is a baby and must be treated like one. It is important not to play with your puppy so much that is becomes exhausted.

We recommend that you try to make the first few days together with your puppy as calm as possible, and remember that this is a very traumatic time for your puppy. Please resist the urge to take your puppy to visit friends and relatives during this period. Make this a special time to get to know your puppy, and for your puppy to get to know its new home.

Remember that if there is a problem with Hypoglycemia, it will usually happen during the first few weeks while the puppy is adjusting, and the puppy will out-grow it. The trick to AVOID hypo is to make sure your puppy eats well!!
