My first Chihuahua was at 20 years old for my early 21st present. My mum and dad brought little Ella for me. This was the beginning of everything.. Where Ella was not the first or last lol.. But my passion became wildly alive with more than one Chihuahua! Over the years I discovered my second favourite breed.. And this was the Miniature Schnauzer!.. My dogs are like Candy to me.. To my soul. And I love having lots of dogs around me. My pack as I tell all!.. They make me whole. So along came my Schnauzers which took me a long time to get off reputable breeders hear in NZ. Having my two favorite breeds is a blessing.. And that I can have a small breeding program and enjoy the puppies which come and go to the best of homes.

The Chihuahua's history is convoluted, and many theories surround the origin of the breed. Both folklore and archaeological finds show that the breed has origins in Mexico. The most common theory is that Chihuahua are descended from the Techichi, a companion dog favored by the Toltec civilization in Mexico. No records of the Techichi are available before the 9th century, although dog pots from Colima, Mexico, buried as part of the western Mexico shaft tomb tradition, which date back to 300 BC, are thought to depict Techichis. The earlier ancestors probably were present before the Mayas as dogs approximating the Chihuahua are found in materials from the Great Pyramid of Cholula, antedating 1530 and in the ruins of Chichen Itza on the Yucatán Peninsula.[2] However, a genetic study indicated that there was less than 2 percent pre-European mitochondrial DNA in modern Chihuahuas due to admixture with the European dogs How long do Chihuahuas live? The Chihuahua lifespan is pretty long -- as much as 17 years Chihuahua traits: • Small, stocky size • Apple-shaped head • Round, dark eyes • Short, pointed muzzle • Lively and loyal • Cocky and energetic • Strong-willed and outspoken • Nimble and quick • Portable
