Description
“Absolutely adorable, playful, and ready for adventures!”
I am a Chihuahua puppy! My Mom is Hershey and my Dad is Bingo. I was born on April 13th and I will be ready for my forever home on July 16th! I have been family raised on a mini farm in the country around children. I have had my shots and de-wormers. I will be checked by a veterinarian. I am microchipped. For more information or to schedule a visit with me, please contact Savannah Monday through Saturday. All Sunday calls will be returned on Monday.
We would be happy to help you with setting up transportation and shipping of your puppy if needed at an additional cost.
Though the Chihuahua is tiny in size it is huge in personality. Distinctive in appearance, this breed is known as the world’s smallest dog. It is typically 5-9 inches tall, and usually weighs 3-6 pounds, and has a lifespan of generally 10-18 years. The present day Chihuahua was first discovered in Chihuahua, Mexico in the mid 19th century, and was subsequently brought to the United States during that time. The American Kennel Club registered the breed in 1904. The Chihuahua is a companion breed and loves to be with its human family. They do fine living in apartments, and are great for first time dog parents, but they are a highly sensitive breed and do not like being alone. Due to the size of the breed, and their thin, fragile bones they can get injured. This amusing pet loves to have fun, and if outside can be an escape artist, so they do need to be watched. Chihuahuas are very affectionate and will usually get close to one specific family member, and will be very protective of them. Due to their being so attached to one person they are not so friendly with strangers, and therefore are great watchdogs.
Overall, this is a healthy breed, and with routine veterinary checkups and care they should live a happy, healthy, and long life.
