FIND A RESPONSIBLE BREEDER!
Hello I am Michelle Cecil, I have been breeding Chihuahuas and
only Chihuahuas for about 15 years. When I started I figured out I had a lot
to learn , read books, went to the AKC website( www.akc.org ) met other
responsible breeders and added that all to my own personal experience.
I have been showing for about 12 years and learning more about the
standard as I go. I breed as close to the AKC standard as possible by
researching pedigrees and breeding away from genetic faults. I
I strive to breed show dogs but all pups cannot make it into the ring, there for
the others are sold as excellent quality pets, with limited AKC registrations,
spay or neuter contracts....not for breeding. The ones that are show
prospects will be held til older to make sure they develope the show traits
we strive for....If sold as a show pup It will be contractual, no exceptions. A
contract will be written up with a mutual agreement between the new
owner and myself. Terms may vary but will be strictly enforced.
PUPPY SALES
Selling a pup, once a price has been agreed upon a non-refundable
deposit will be required to hold the pup. Funds for a Deposit, Cost, Shipping
will me made with a Money Gram or Western Union
Money Order Only NO PAY PAL
Ask for a paid in full discount.
Arrangements for shipping,
delivery or pick must be made with in 10 days of receiving
deposit. Pups cannot be picked up or shipped before 9 weeks.
I do not guarantee size, I breed with in the AKC standard.
If picked up the new owner must provide a travel crate,
Pups must travel in a crate for safety reasons.
If delivered a fee of 10.00 per hour both ways is assessed, upon
delivery the owner must provide a travel crate or a 30.oo fee for
providing one will be charged.
Deposits of any amount are non refundable.
TEACUP
I breed only for to the AKC standard. Six lbs or under.
See the Teacup Myth page.
NEW PUPPY INFO
When considering adding a Chihuahua to your family it is best to do
research to make sure that a Chihuahua is what is best for your family
and lifestyle. Having a Chihuahua is a lifetime commitment, their lifetime.
Chihuahuas can live up to 15 years or so. I think it is best that when
purchasing a pup you go to the breeders home and see the environment,
parents and socialization of your new pet. Sometimes because of
logistics this is not possible and then shipping will be offered.
I have a good reputation for placing well adjusted and socialized pets.
SEE MY REFERENCES PAGES ON THE LEFT OF THE HOME PAGE.
Since I moved here in July of 2006 I have successfully shipped puppies.
When you make the decision to purchase a pup you will surely find that
they are wonderful pets.
I do not recommend Chihuahuas for very young children, they are hearty
little dogs but can also be vulnerable to injury. They have a soft stop on
top of their heads called Molera. Although rare, injury can take place by
dropping them, stepping on them , or falling off furniture. Sometimes pups,
if left unattended, can run and play hard and hit their heads.
An honest evaluation of your family and environment is strongly suggested.
I have a health guarantee. I take the pups to my vet and have them
completely checked over, for structure, patellas(knees), molera, hernias,
and parasites. I am confident that when I sell a puppy it is ready for a
new home and or shipping. When Shipping the pups are evaluated
individually. Smaller pups are shipped at an older age. No pups will be
shipped before 9 weeks of age....this is a safe guard to make sure the
pups are hearty enough to make a flight. Hypoglycemia is another risk.
I try to send pups out on the earliest possible flights, it is less likely for
flight delays and pups should arrive earlier in the day.
BREEDING
I only breed just a few litters a year and in no way am I considered a
puppy mill. My dogs have some of the best facilities in the area. I do my
very best to keep them flea and parasite free. They live partially in the house
and partially outside in a controlled environment. They are happy and healthy
and well socialized with each other and people too.....I have the facility to
keep them separated when need be. Puppies are home raised and never go
outside until they go to their new owners.
HEALTH GUARANTEE
read this info below and then go to the Health Guarantee page to view more details.
I have a health guarantee, I take the pups to my vet to have them checked
out after the age of weaning. I have them checked for total all round
health, patellas, molera, hernias, parasites. If parasites are present
worming will be performed. First vaccines are performed after weaning
whatever age that takes place. If shipping, extra care is taken to prevent
Hypoglycemia, when I receive a deposit on a pup I will send out new
puppy literature to make the transition easier and if you have any
questions I will be able to address them. After receiving your new pup you
must take the pup to your vet providing a stool sample with in 72 hours
of receiving the pet. If any life threatening issues are detected with your
new pet I must me informed immediately along with a letter
stating the issue found by your vet. The pups will have to be
shipped back to me as soon as possible to be re-evaluated by my vet if
my vet does not agree that the pup has a life threatening condition I will
mail you are certificate of his findings and a replacement pup of equal value will be given . I not do refund.
I do not pay for shipping. This is all so theoretical as I have
never had in my years of breeding any incidence that I have
ever sold a pup that was not in excellent health, I am very confident of the
pups I breed and would never send a sick or compromised pup off to
anyone. With my health guarantee there is also and assurance that I
will always be available to answer any of your questions either by email or
phone. If your new pup is not seen by your vet with in 3 working days
health guarantee will be void. When seeing your vet for the first time I also
suggest you take the vaccination record provided along to get on a
vaccination schedule that you and your new vet agree on...Also I do not
suggest taking your new pup any where that strange dogs may had defected.
Like Dog parks or Pet stores or letting strangers handle them or at least
until your vet tells you they are fully vaccinated but even then there is always
a risk.
SHIPPING
Shipping is available either from Fort Smith Arkansas or Tulsa Oklahoma.
The fees for either is 300.00. This includes 2 trips to the vet for vet health
checks one initial and one for shipping, health certificate, airline approved
travel crate, travel time and gas, and any postal fees when puppy kits are
mailed with the request of the new owners. The Airlines do not allow puppy
kits to be sent with the puppy only the crate and a double dish and a
small amount of food, and the health certificates and a small amount of
paperwork. Shipping from Fort Smith is on American Airlines and sometimes
depending on the time of year they will have weather restraints called
embargoes, between the temps of 34 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit are
allowed with acclimation certificates from the vet.
Continental Airlines out of Tulsa is available to ship all year as they have
climate control. If shipped by Delta will be more expensive 395.00.
IF FOR ANY REASON THE NEW OWNER AT ANY TIME IN THE PETS LIFE THEY
ARE UNABLE TO CARE FOR THE PET, I WOULD LIKE TO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO
REGAIN POSSESSION OF THE PET OR AT LEAST FIND OUT, FOR MY RECORDS,
WHERE THE PET HAS GONE...MY GREATEST WISH IS FOR THE PETS, THAT
I HAVE BRED GO TO GOOD FOREVER HOME.
I hope you found my website simple and to the point, but if there are any
other questions, please do not hesitate to call or email, any feedback is
welcome.

No where in the AKC Standard does it
describe Chihuahuas as teacups, pockets or minis. They are TOY breed
weighing six pounds or less.
I have advertised my site with some other sites. Just wanted
to let everyone know that I consider myself one of the best
responsible breeders around. I only breed
AKC Chihuahuas
and only chihuahuas. No mixed breeds, what some call
"Designer Dogs"
I believe in the integrity of the pure bred dog as the AKC states.
