Good for you Judy!! -------Original Message------- From: Judy Moon Date: 1/16/2012 3:30:24 PM To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Chihuahuas] hello chihuahua lovers and friends So very true Peggy! I have “cleaned up” after breeders all my life. That is what I do now, adopt those who nobody wants and give them a forever home. It’s what I will do as long as the Lord helps me do it.

Why is there such an influx of them? Is it the movies beverly hills chi? I know that hurts the breed. Like scooby doo causes real issues in the great Dane world. Tons of young untrained Danes right now that people got on a whim.....not a whim breed lol. Our last two were rescues, couldn't be happier with them!

Statistically speaking, if your dog has 5-6 puppies (which is the avg) somewhere along their life, 2 to 3 of them will end of in a shelter, or die before they even reach 3 years old. Plus each one of these puppies are capable of producing there own puppies within the first year. So now within there first year of life you have the mommy, and an average of 5 of her puppies each having 5 of there own puppies=26 chis within the first year. Six months later the females are in heat again, and the cycle starts all over again. Now you have an avg of 51+ chis by the time your pups aren't even two years old. Now you can see why there are so many unwanted chis on Petfinders. The odds are that most of your grand-chis and great-chis will end up in a shelter and be Euthanized. Unless you are breeding for show to improve the breed, and give out breeders-terms along with the sale of your puppies, which states that each puppies has to be spayed or neutered before it is 6months, or you have the legal right to take back those puppies...Then please do not breed! We don't need more pet-quality chis in shelters. Please have your baby spayed now, and by doing so you are allowing others in shelters a better chance of being adopted and saving your pups and there pups from being in a shelter and killed in the future. Do you know that more then 85% of the chis in shelters are from irresponsible pet owners and not puppy-mills? That is a fact, call any shelter especially in CA, TX, KY, OH and they will verify it. Right now TX is so overloaded with dogs, especially the chi, that for the past two weeks they have literally been having a daily Euth day, instead of twice a week!!! It's more then horrible!! The rescues across the states including NY are overloaded with chis. They tried to save as many chis as possible from those states and had them shipped to NY, so now we are trying to find a couple of hundred homes for them, but thousands of more homes are still needed. Please reconsider and think of the future of the chi population. Are you willing to keep track of each of your puppies for the rest of their lives, to ensure that they are not needlessly bred too? Are you willing to hire a lawyer to back up your no-breeding terms upon the sale of each pup? That's what a responsible breeder would do. Please think out what the future holds for each one of them! These are not good times for this breed, just not enough homes for them or for the next generation to come. If you love the breed, then Don't Breed, Adopt instead!
