Another thing to remember is that a dog that is to be shown cannot be spayed or neutered. All show dogs must be intact.

That was the first info I leraned when deciding to become a chi owner, and the info did not come easily so thanks for posting that, I am sure it will help other newbies to make an educated decision on their new pet

When we were at the Pet Expo this weekend, TWO separate times, "serious" chihuahua owners at the booths told us that their chihuahuas were "tiny teacups", as if it was something to brag about. We just cringed and petted the pup and walked away.

When I first got Lily I took her to the same vet I'd been using for a previous dog. She took one look at Lily and said, "She's a teacup, isn't she? I guess anything under 5 pounds is considered teacup." This was a vet! We have since changed vets for reasons unrelated to this.

i was at petsmart the other day and a girl that works there came over and was like oh she is so cute and small! how old i told her almost 4 months and she said oh is she a teacup and i told her no, there is no teacups in chihuahua's and she said no yes there are i used to work at a pet store and we sold a lot of teacups

so i told her why they use the term teacup in chi's and she was like ohh i see... then she told me about a chihuahua that had the DISEASE hypoglycemia and how she took it home every night to take care of it and she got attatched to him and they let her buy him for 100 dollars off his price.

i just couldn't think of what else to say!
