Any up here got a Chihuahua?

[babybunt]

I would like a chihuahua as a pet, not really into big dogs, prefer something smaller. Any up here got one or got any experience of this breed of dog?

Babybunt,
The Kennel Club has breeders listed in different areas I think. Also, Pets at HOme have a notice by the checkout advertising a puppy finding service.

A friend of mine who used to live up here had 4 chihuahuas (personally I'd get a breed that was easier to spell). Two had heart problems (one also had a lot of eye trouble) and both died at about age 10, and one died at a young age because the next door neighbour's GSD ate it. The one that's left is very sweet and I like him a lot (that's saying something coming from a lab owner). They were all called Taco or Enchilada or something. She got them in Aberdeenshire somewhere. I did ask her for you but she can't recall the people's names now.

Good luck.

My niece down south has one, but personally I would get a little dog that is a bit more robust, he is a lovely natured little thing, but little and a fussy eater, with a delicate stomach and they can be a bit iffy to house train. I wouldnt spend the money the breeders are wanting for them.
