bred to the AKC standard for conformation. Our chis are
family members AND show dogs.
GREAT NEWS...Duke went WD for a 5pt. major at Land of Lincoln KC!!
We hope you enjoy your visit here and please feel free to email with any questions.
Our chis are naturally reared (NR).
We raise chihuahuas for ourselves, both to love and show. However, not every puppy will be show quality thus we will usually have a pet puppy available when we have a litter. We do not have puppies available always, and we do not breed to sell dogs or make money. However we do take great pride in providing that perfect new addition to your family!
Our goal is to improve on our breed while preserving its unique characteristics. Much work is needed in several areas pertaining to health as well as conformation. The chihuahua, like any purebred, has several hereditary health issues such as epilepsy and patellar luxation, (which are made worse by environment and improper nutrition).
As stewards of the breed it is our responsibility to breed only those dogs that are known to be free of such afflictions while still maintaining the type, temperament and essentially, the true chihuahua. Much work goes into each breeding and even more work into each litter. It is a never-ending goal richly rewarded by that sweet puppy breath, that beautiful champion, and that happy new owner.
Although we do participate in conformation shows, ribbons and titles are not more important than the health of our dogs. With enough money and persistence, almost any dog can be titled. Like most breeders, we have seen champions we would not consider placing in our breeding program. Our ultimate goal is to produce both typey and truly healthy dogs!
We provide all of our dogs with a natural, biologically appropriate and varied raw diet as well as ample exercise and fresh air. We use no chemicals and a very limited vaccination schedule. In doing this we will continue to improve the overall health of our chis for generations to come.
We cherish our breed and abide by the Chihuahua Club of America's code of ethics.
PLEASE NOTE: Before you buy ANY PUREBRED - any breed -please read our
information page to learn what to watch out for and the differences among breeders. Want a TCup?? Find out why you don't.
Again,we will not always have puppies available but will gladly refer you to other reputable breeders in most states. Just ask!
Above is Tipper- Tip's namesake. Tipper started it all. She was a rescue (spayed) and such a wonderful addition to my life. After having had a few chis with poor temperaments and various health problems,Tipper was perfect - excepting conformation. I wanted others to be able to enjoy a chi as wonderful as Tipper, minus the severe overbite.
She inspired me to strive for the perfect chihuahua through selective
breeding and superior nutrition, per our breed standard. Of course, I love having puppies around regardless. Breeding for conformation is like working with living art! Showing is fun and rewarding, especially when people approach you outside the ring and tell you how lovely your dog is!
Tipper is ten years old now and still very healthy, she is the queen of our house.
The picture above was taken on her ninth birthday. With the proper
nutrition, ie, biologically appropriate foods, no unnecessary yearly booster vaccinations, no toxic chemicals such as flea spot-ons,etc, I hope to have her around for many more years. She truly is my angel.
