Oh no....she doesn't want to sell the puppies...she just wants to have a house full of them! i wouldn't mind a house full of them also-just imagine all the kisses!!!:p Her puppy is six months old and doens't even weigh more than 2.5 lbs. she is very little and very delicate...i can hold her in one hand and i have little hands!!! i tried to talk to her about it and tried to get her on YT. i am just trying to picture how in the world her yorkie could fit more than one puppy in her belly much less five or six!!! But she is very hard-headed and isn't listening to a word i say...i'm just upset and frustrated over this whole thing. i will try to see if i can send a pic of how small her puppy is -i'm computer delinqent!!! |
Oh! I know how small 2.5 lb is. I remember when Kacee was that size.:D |

i really hope she does gain weight. my friend free-feeds her but she hardly eats very much. i just hope everything goes okay with her baby. when my chi was pregnant...i had so many knots in my stomach the whole time and she weighed 6 lbs.!!!oh well....she can't say i didn't warn her.....:rolleyes: |
WHY does she want to breed her? Maybe you can find some stuff on the internet or on this site to print out and show her (or email to her). |

Sounds familiar "Teacup" and "Deer-faced" Chihuahuas Along with "mini," "pocket" and "tiny toy", "teacup" is sometimes used to describe Chihuahuas and other dogs that are very small. These and similar terms are not officially used by any kennel club or reputable breeder, and are not breeds or specific types of Chihuahua. In particular, all Chihuahuas are toy dogs; there is no such thing as a "toy Chihuahua." Some potential buyers seek extremely small animals; very small dogs, however, are often runts. They are often unhealthy, or undernourished, or, if otherwise healthy, may suffer shortened life spans and health problems later in life due to extreme dwarfing. They are not normally suitable for breeding, and require special care. Some breeders of Chihuahuas purposely attempt to breed very small animals, and increase the prices of the smallest dogs, or specifically advertise tiny animals. Reputable breeders disapprove of such practices, pointing out that it is difficult to predict the adult size of a given puppy, and citing the other issues discussed above. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chihuahua_(dog) |
Out of curiosity how small is too small to breed. What is the smallest? 3 and half pounds??? 4 pounds???... 5 pounds???... 6 pounds??? Are you safe if your vet checks your baby out and get the okay from him.. I mean do realize even with an okay and a bigger dog there is never a gaurantee... Just curious??? :confused: |
Thank Goodness!!! well blessed be...i just got off the phone with my friend and i think i have her talked out of breeding her baby esp. since i told her her puppy would probably die along with all of her babies. she has decided to get a boy dog and have him neutered so her baby can have somebody to play with. she says her puppy acts so lonely sometimes and wants to get her a playmate to snuggle with!!! Phewww...talk about a load off my shoulders there.:rolleyes: :D :D |
OK, now we need to figure out how to get her to spay her little princess! |
