No I didn't mean that as all her puppies are expensive and I know that she does not do it for the money. She has good blood lines, they are AKC, great vet. She screens her soon to be parents/owners really well. I am going to take her. I have fallen in love.

However, with the range in price, I bet they take other things into consideration. Gloria In a message dated 10/3/2010 10:51:56 A.M.

Why would you have to pay more for a puppy just because the mother dog had a c-section? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nancy Sent: Saturday, September 25, 2010 12:27 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] Chihuahua weights Hi everyone I have a question I am buying ny second Chihuahua from the same breeder and same parents as my current little girl, Abbey-Rose. Both parents are very small mom 3lbs dad 2.5 ponds and Abbey is small 4lbs. I have neuropathy in my arms, hands and legs which makes it hard for me to carry anything over 5 lbs. Well the mom had two babies c-section and one did not make it. So the one left is quite chubby and I am thinking that she is going to be BIG. The breeder has assured me that since she is a singleton and is not yet 4 weeks old that once she starts walking and playing she will slow down as she is getting all mom's milk. the breeder also has the grandparents and they are very small. I am already falling in love with this baby but am afraid that she will end up to big for me. Does anyone have experience with this subject? Remember this is for my health otherwise I would not care and the fact that I am paying a lot since her mom had to have a c-section. Should I trust the breeder or start looking at other puppies? PLEASE advise me. Thanks Nancy Plus I want my girl to have someone her size to play with as she does not like big dogs. ------------------------------------ " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends! Join today!
