Available adult chihuahuas
At times, we may have some adult Chihuahuas available to pet homes. These dogs are fully up to date on vaccinations and dewormed, but they do still need to be spayed or neutered. We believe that people value things more when they invest something into them, and we want these beautiful dogs to be valued in their new homes, so we do ask a $250 rehoming fee for these dogs, but that money goes towards their spay and dental cleanings before they leave here. Most of these dogs are our retirees, but we may occasionally add a younger one that we kept but later decided not to add to our program for some reason. Each of these dogs has his/her own personality, peculiarities, likes and dislikes, so if you are interested in any of them, please don't hesitate to contact me to find out more about them. These babies are not rescues or in need of saving. They are wonderful dogs that deserve loving pet homes and have lots to offer prospective families. We would love to find wonderful pet homes for each one, but if we don't, that Chihuahua will live his or her life out here with us. We may be able to offer shipping for some of these babies, but we do reserve the right to refuse shipping if we deem it necessary. Shipping the adults costs a little more than shipping the puppies, and may vary by airline.
Adopting an adult Chihuahua
Many people think that adopting an adult Chihuahua will be easier than raising a puppy, but that is not always true. Yes, sometimes you will have an easier time with an adult making the transition, but in many cases, adopting an adult is similar to adopting a puppy, and can even be more challenging for a number of reasons. Adult Chihuahuas already know an established routine, and have formed bonds with us. So, sometimes, it is difficult for them to change their routine. They will form bonds with their new families, but it may take more time than with a puppy. Also, even the best house trained adult may regress when going into a new home. For this reason, we will be equally as picky about where we place our adults as we are about where we place our puppies. You must be aware that you are not necessarily getting a "ready made" companion with these babies, and be willing to put in the work that may be required to help these precious dogs settle in to your family well. Believe me, these dogs are well worth the work! They have tons of love and affection to give the right family.

Sweet Lupita is a very friendly and outgoing girl. She turned 7 years old in November 2023, and she's still spunky and loaded with personality. Lupita is crate trained and trained to go outside with our routine (she will need to learn your routine before you can fully trust her to go outside every time). This girl is a real sweetheart. I think she would do well in an active home, as she does have enough energy to keep up, but she is also happy to be a lap dog. She loves to have her belly rubbed and to be scratched behind her ears. Lupita is a darling and I know she's going to be a wonderful pet for her new family.
It hurts my heart to do this, but it is time for gorgeous Carli to retire. This stunning blue eyed girl has definitely left her mark on our breeding program. We have some of her daughters and even a granddaughter or two. Carli is attentive and intuitive, a gentle and sweet lady. She is a black merle long coat with solid crystal blue eyes (in case you missed that!). She turned 8 years old in March of 2024 and she's still a spunky girl with tons of personality. She's got enough energy to go hiking or camping or whatever you want to do wit her. The family that brings this precious girl home will be very lucky! Carli is a sweetheart.
Nayeli
Nayeli, or "Nay-Nay" as we call her around here, is a quiet little thing with a calm temperament. She turned 2 years old in February, so she's a young girl that we kept to add to our program. She just didn't work out, but she will live a nice long life with her new family. Sweet Nayeli is a long coat chocolate and tan girl. She's a little cautious at first, but when she warms up, she's a lap dog through and through. Nay-Nay's new family will be very happy with her.
