My friend and I both have chihuahuas, I have a male and she has a female. Their both perbreed. We want to breed them, but I've never done it before. Is there anything you should do ? Precautions to take? I heard females have a hard time breeding, is that true? I heard a lot of people make a career out of it, where do they sell them? I'm really clueless about the whole thing, but I love chihuahuas, they are great, and I'm not working right now so I'd be able to spend a lot of time taking care of them before they were sold. So whats everyone think? Help lol thanks, felicia

Be very careful deciding to breed your chihuahua, especially if your female is tiny...never breed a small female...it is better to breed a small male with a larger female...a pregnancy for a small chihuahua female can be deadly...and always results in a C-section birth...pups that are too big can kill her also...if there are more then 2 pups the vet will want to either end the pregnancy or remove the other pups. Just a few tips for you. Also tiny chihuahua pups are very tiny and you would need to take extra care to keep them warm and make sure they are feeding correctly.
