    I gotta admit that I am not looking for one....but where would you get one in this country? I've never seen them for sale anywhere, online or else where. Just curious. :)

    I would suggest to contact the Irish Kennel Club and get breeders addresses off them ...

    BTW ...I think it's a good sign that one has to actively search for a Chi breeder in Ireland ...at least it reduces the likelihood of there being any irresponsible "Chi-dealers" out there ...

    I remember watching a programme on canine pregnancy and among others they featured a chihuahua, but said that they have the highest percentage of C-section births and the smallest litters (usually only 1 or 2) due to the fact that they have been bred smaller and smaller over the years and depending on the line they were bred with - the bitch usually cannot delivery naturally.

    I'm sure this would deter most "dealers" as low litters and surgical intervention would lower their profit margins.
