Hi

Myself & boyfriend are looking to buy a chihuahua in the near future. I had 2 pups of this breed as a child (Smooth & Long Coat). Though this is not my usual breed (Siberian Huskies) Im now looking for a less demanding dog lol.

Myself & partner have no other pets or children we also have a large back garden to accommodate the dog.

Im undecided on which sex to have at the moment as I know each sex has advantages/disadvantages, though I am swaying more to a bitch. The puppy will be purely as a PET I have no intention of showing, breeding etc. I just want something to spoil rotten!!

I have been doing some Research on the breed & have found that this breed come in both apple shaped head & deer heads, I prefer the apple shaped. Although Im undecided on long coat or smooth coat? can anyone tell me which one sheds the less? I have read that long coat does, though my mom tells me the smooth coat is more likely to shed.

I live in the West Midlands area, I have considered rescue though I have not successfully found a rescue centre, can anyone help me out?

Also can some one advise me of the going rate of a chihuahua & what to be aware of when buying from a breeder, ie, its female so costs more, its a tea cup so costs more etc?? I know in the Husky world many breeders try these type of things to earn more money. As I am fairly new to this breed I need some tips

Many Thanks in advance :)
