Finding A Chihuahua

Finding a companion for my Chihuahua dog turned out to be a difficult search. It took a lot of digging to find a Chihuahua breeder with a good reputation.
So many times I passed people selling puppies on the side of the road and was tempted to stop in and end the search. I just could not risk getting attached to a dog that ended up being sick.
I called my local veterinarian; they had no idea. I started contacting local pet stores; they didn't want to tell me anything.
Eventually, I looked online and found a list of Chihuahua breeders. I contacted a few and got a list of references from each of them. After a little legwork, I adopted a beautiful Chihuahua puppy. She was worth every minute of work that it took to find her.
