Former Breeder of Long Haired Chihuahuas SAD TO SAY I NO LONGER BREED AS I HAVE TERMINAL CANCER. I hope to still do some parades!

My remaining furkids will live out their lives being loved as always!
It is with a very heavy heart to make this post:
Karen, first mommy of puppies from Diamond Chihuahuas, has passed away from her illness.
She will greatly missed.
We have some degree of gratitude that she will be meeting many that have passed at the Rainbow Bridge, including our own Kissy, Trixie, Honey, Fancy, Buffy, Texas, Cookie, Lucky, Crystal, Wendy, Bozzi, and, the fella that started it all, Bitsy.
RIP Karen.

3 of my 4 girls! One is hiding in the kitchen..lol! Left to right...Cookie, P***y, and Domino! Snowflake is hiding as usual lol!
Another sleepy doggie,...Cookie, 13 yrs old! Her hearing is starting to get bad!
Lazy day for P***y! Such a nice day, but our house is always a bit chilly!

Karen had set up a stand to sell doggy shirts, etc.
Our sweetheart, Trixie has crossed the Rainbow Bridge. She was almost 16. Heaven gained another angel. She will now be free and get to visit the rest of her missing family from years gone by♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️. Mommy and Daddy miss you soooo much baby....sleep tight!
I am very sorry but due to my bad health, I no longer breed Chihuahuas! I am currently battling metastatic breast cancer in my brain.
People, please remember that black or dark colored dogs get hot faster than others!
I wish everyone shared the responsibility that we do by making sure every single dog we own is ALWAYS up to date on their shots, etc!! It is very expensive when you have as many as we do but if you can't afford to do right by your pet, don't get one!! I could probably paper your walls with all the shot receipts and vet visits we have over the years and it's only fair to them!!! Pets are NOT CHEAP! It is YOUR responsibility to keep them healthy and that includes using common sense by not tying them up outside, leaving them without proper food and water, not bathing them, and the list goes on! There are so many clinics available and Petco offers well-visit care! ''Tis the season folks........."
Well, little Miss Ginger's eyes are beginning to crack open. It's not much but you can start to see her little shiny eyes!
Ginger on the left, Harley on the right! Face shots!!
Some random pics of the babies! Ginger and Harley are progressing nicely! Little fat tummies!
The little male has a pending deposit and is now spoken for. Waiting on decision for little girl!
New babies today 9/30/16. Cookie X Buffy. On top....Fawn/white female 3.9 oz. on bottom....Fawn/white male 4.3 oz (as he dries, he really looks chocolate blue)
To the person that requested our price range.. We sell puppies starting at $375 - $600. The lower price is if nobody wants the AKC papers and I don't paper the litter. $600 would be full guarantee with AKC papers. Our litters are far and few with our girls getting older and spaying them. Every chihuahua I own is AKC registered!
Okay, had a big ordeal! Cookie had one start to come out and then went back up in her! Never had that happen before. Then she pushed too long, so off to the vet we went! X-rays showed 2 babies like I predicted BUT both were feet first. This is never good. They gave her oxytocin and she was able to have them on her own, thank God! Anyway, we have two big, healthy boys. Buffy's spitting image and a black and white beautifully marked one! Pics to follow. I need her to get them all pinked up and dry before I mess with them. Whew
We are in labor finally!
Should have a few babies by tomorrow! Unplanned litter by Cookie X Buffy! She is on schedule to get spayed but she had a different idea! Do not breed my dogs after 6-7 years old. Just hoping all goes ok!

Why would my family leave me to die in a hot vehicle? I only weigh 1 1/2 pounds and am a bit timid, because everything is bigger than me. I feel very blessed that a wonderful human family adopted me. I love being a part of a family where I am well-cared for and adored, but I have a sad story to tell you.
Yesterday, I was so excited to go for a ride to celebrate Father’s Day with my family. When we got to our destination, everyone got out of the truck except me. I was nudged back into the seat, and the door closed in my face. Since I’m so small, I couldn’t see anything but the tops of trees and the sun beaming in through the window. I barked and barked with all my might, but my family walked away. They made a mistake and left me inside the hot truck.
Thankfully, someone heard my cries and saw me in distress. The concerned stranger called 911. The Roswell police officer quickly arrived, and he rescued me from inside the hot truck . He scooped my worn out body and brought me inside his air conditioned police car to cool off. He even gave me fresh water to drink! My owner came out and told the officer that he had left me for about 30 minutes while my family went to eat lunch. He told the officer that he thought that I would be ok because he left the windows cracked, but I was not o.k. I was losing strength from the heat, and I was dehydrated – I felt like I was dying. I overheard the officer tell my owner that the temperature inside the truck was 115 degrees.
My owner was charged with cruelty to animals – a charge where he could face up to six month in jail if convicted. Hopefully, he will now leave me at home unless he's going to take me inside a cool building or to a fun doggie park. The Roswell Police, along with other media outlets, have told you not to leave animals in a hot car, but my owner didn't listen.
Please help me spread the word to your friends, families, neighbors...to anyone who will pay attention! The Roswell Police Department is committed to educating people on the health dangers of heat and encourages you to call 911 when you see a dog like me locked in a hot car! Because of concerned people like you, and the Roswell officer who showed up, I am here today to tell you my story. You can see that I'm feeling much better in the second picture after getting some water and cold air. Please don’t leave us animals in a hot car!
Please be careful with your pets in this horrible heat!!!! It doesn't take long to get taken over by it. And PLEASE, don't be "nice" and take them for a ride only to leave them in a sweltering vehicle!!!!!!! They can die in minutes!! AND, its against the law!
Rosa, still being a champ! Awesome job Linda McRae and Rosa!
Cases of acquired Fanconi arise despite treat-market shift
FINALLY!
Petco has removed Chinese-made dog and cat treats from stores as they may have sickened thousands of pets and killed 1,000 dogs since 2007. http://fxn.ws/1Asvkci
After the parade in Dover, couple shots!
Ok, Dover Christmas Parade was rescheduled for Saturday, Dec 13th! Please come and see us tomorrow. The fur babies all have Snoopy Christmas fleece jackets for the parade! Starts at Noon!
Lol
Very disappointed to read the flyer from Fifers Orchard today pertaining to the Peach Festival held on their grounds. The festival in the Town of Wyoming is separate and not to be confused with Fifers own festival, even though held on the same day. We have always taken some of the chi's in their stroller to their festival. Never being loose, never a nuisance, never aggressive, but their flyer states that pets are not welcome on their grounds! They have always been popular and photographed by the news media several times. No longer will we be able to take them. We respect their wishes and will only visit the town festival from now on. Claiming it is due to food safety, even though they usually have ponies to purchase rides and other animals around is a bit confusing to me but it is what it is. No more Peach Festival for us :(
Good read...

A wonderful gift from Linda McRae! A collage of sweet, little Rosa! She is our first baby who is a successful competitor of agility! She has won many ribbons and has just begun. Love you Rosa, and Linda, too for doing such a wonderful job with her!
A doggie on every cushion...lol. They love to sleep on the back of the couch, and make the tops of the couch sag down...lol!
Those lazy, hazy days of summer! Trixie is just lovin' life!
Come and see us today in the Dover parade!
Getting things ready for the 4th of July parades! Usually, we do Dover and Smyrna. Have to start my doggie dresses! I am promising to myself that I will NOT wait until last minute.....I will NOT stay up all night trying to finish ..... lol
