Guide lines.
ANY TOY BREED, ESPECIALLY
CHIHUAHUAS, IT HAS GRAVELY
COME TO OUR ATTENTION THAT
SOME NEW CHIHUAHUA PUPPY OWNERS THINK THAT THIS BREED CAN BE LEFT ALONE FOR HOURS WITHOUT ANY CARE.
PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS. TOY BREEDS NEED TO BE MONITORED JUST LIKE A NEWBORN BABY. BECAUSE THEIR MATABLISM IS SO FAST AND THEY ARE SO SMALL AND CANNOT EAT AS MUCH AS A LARGER PUP, THEY SHOULD BE MONITORED AROUND THE CLOCK. NOT DOING THIS
CAN RESULT IN THE DEATH OF
YOUR PUP, AND WE WILL NOT BE
RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE IN ANY
WAY.
FOR SAFETY REASONS, WE
KEEP THEM IN A PLAY PEN WITH TOYS
AND ROOM TO PLAY..

WHERE WILL THEY SLEEP AND STAY WHILE YOU ARE OUT OF THE HOUSE?
this is where the play pen or a large CRATE comes in, buy one that is big enough for a piddle pad, his bed and food and water...
don't forget the toys WHAT WILL THEY EAT? we feed SCIENCE DIET FOR PUPPY UNTIL THEY ARE 4 MONTHS OLD.....AT 4 MONTHS WE SWITCH THEM TO AN ALL NATURAL DOG FOOD........just make sure there is
NO SOY OR WHEAT OR CORN ..SOY IS BAD FOR TEETH AND KIDNEY.WHEAT IS BAD FOR THEIR SKIN AND COATS. There is several
foods on the market that follow those guidelines..If your
puppy or adult is getting too heavy, then NO CORN.
LARGE BREED PUPS
At first when you get your pup, they are used to eating
4 times a day, (about every 6 hours) and what we start out
at a few nuggets with water in the microwave for 3 minutes,
then we take a fork and mash the food to make a soup, add
the nuvet,(like you are salting food) and let it cool down
to where it just feels warm NOT HOT to the touch and we do this till they are 8 to 10 weeks, then you slowly switch them to just dry food with plenty of water to drink. The time we
feed is 6 -12 -6 -12
SMALL BREED PUPS
With our small breeds we do the same with the food as with
the large breed, but we buy the small breed science diet
and we also leave a container of dry food and plenty of water
for them right off from the beginning, they need to eat more
often than the large breed as they cannot consume as much
food as the large breed pups.
WHAT WILL THEY PLAY WITH?we use toys that are puppy proof
no rubber or plastic toys, make sure you have a snuggle toy
for them to sleep with along with a bed and blanket WHAT WILL THEY EAT AND DRINK OUT OF? a ceremic or stainless
food and water dish and should be washed daily just like
your dishes. DO THEY NEED VITAMINS? most difinitely, we use and recommend

pup when you get them....vaccinations are given at 6, 9,
12, 15 weeks of age, you need to check with your vet and
follow his protocol DO THEY NEED A COLAR AND LEASH? We recommend a harness on
a pup and not a colar, and most diffidently a leash, and
