Thanks again!

She breeds chihuahuas. I recently put a deposit on a pup. I hope she is a reputable breeder

I recently put a deposit on one of her chihuahua pups. She only breeds chihuahuas. I hope she is a reputable breeder

I checked out her site, and I think you found a pretty good breeder. I think some of the information was given because people thought she was breeding Yorkies, and that's overly small to breed a yorkie, but it may not be too small for a Chihuahua and I don't even see that she breeds that small, not sure where that information was obtained. Also, she belongs to dog clubs and breeds to a standard, all good signs. I also like the fact that she shows, which means she may have studied her lines and breeds to improve the breed, not just produce more puppies. I also haven't found that she lists her pups on multiple sites, she has one website that I found, Rillito Chihuahuas In The Ring - Rillito Chihuahuas. I hope you visit her in person, for me seeing how the breeding dogs are housed is the most important thing. She really has some adorable dogs.

Three year old thread.

I suppose three years ago she could have breed yorkies and now only breeds Chihuahuas.
