But, most Breed rescues will let you volunteer because they understand that breeders know their breed and will be better at finding the right home for the dogs, as well as fostering. I am not sure about the Chihuahua Rescue and Transport, which is the only big Chi rescue I know of. Have you asked them if you can volunteer? Usually, if you are going to be a foster mom, they will send someone out to do a home check on your home. As long as you are caring for your own dogs, it should not matter if you breed or not. As long as you are a responsible breeder. But, every rescue is different. Like you were saying, we should get interested Chi people together to start our own rescue/transport!

I have volunteered short term foster for ANY breed (except pits) and been turned down and even kicked out of rescue yahoo groups when they find out I am a breeder.
