A responsible breeder will screen their breeding dogs for any health concerns that are prevalent in the breed, and ensure that dogs are health prior to breeding.

A responsible Chihuahua breeder will obviously love their dogs and treat them as members of the family, providing their Chihuahua dogs and puppies with plenty of love, attention, companionship, exercise, play and socialization, in addition to good quality nutrition and regular veterinary care.

A responsible Chihuahua breeder will be careful and selective about those with whom puppies will be placed. They'll want to know about you and your family living situation, financial resources, daily schedule and the environment in which you intend your puppy to live. A responsible Chihuahua breeder wants to ensure that their puppies are placed in the very best homes possible.
