Chihuahuas hold the Guinness World Record as the smallest dog breed. Their perfectly portable size makes them ideal for apartment living and travel companions.

Follow these essential guidelines for responsible and successful Chihuahua breeding
Wait until fully mature at 2 years for females. Ensure females are at least 4 lbs for safe pregnancies.
Comprehensive testing creates healthy bloodlines
Once per year max
3-4 litters lifetime maximum
2-3 times annually
Small bodies need extra recovery time. Skip at least one heat cycle between litters.
Prevents "small dog syndrome"
Key Focus Areas:
Early socialization prevents fearful, yappy behaviors common in poorly socialized toy breeds.

High risk of complications
Ideal: 4-6 lbs
