I would like to stud out my male chihuahua. How old should you start? How would I find the right female? What should be my first step?? Any info would be helpful.

The first thing to do is wait until your dog is minimal of 2 years old and have all of his health testing done. Does he make a excellent specimen of his breed standard? I didn't ask if he just makes an excellent pet but you have to consider his breed standard as one of the top priorities. Chis are not a highly needed dog right now as there are MANY already bred and in need of homes.

I personally would not breed a chi because so many chis already need homes. Too many people are breeding chihuahuas due t o their popularity and monetary value. The choice is yours. I volunteer at the shelters and I see too many homeless dogs including chihuahuas.

Geeze, don't know where you all live (I'm in western AZ), but I had a really hard time finding a CHI, I wanted a female and everytime I would call on an ad, the females were gone. Took me 2 yrs. and we had to go to Phoenix to get a good one!!

I live in Wa. But if you look at California esp. they have a TON of chi's looking for homes in the shelters.

I know here in TX and over in LA they have many, many chis looking for homes in the shelters and the newspaper is bombed with ads selling chis.

If she got a chihuahua from a shelter the dog would be spayed. If the dog is spayed how can she produce puppies. No puppies means no extra income. She needs to find one who is not altered.

I think you misunderstood what we were saying.......She doesn't need to get one unaltered, there are too many chis that need homes for everyone with a good looking dog to breed them.
My point was, I do not think she should stud this boy out because chihuahuas are too popular right now and many of them are ending up in shelters and rescues.
