chihuahua breeder california
Please read following information. In this chart I 've published most frequent questions
my clients asking me before adopting a puppy:
How I can make sure my puppy is REAL?
I understand the risk of buying a puppy out of state and having it shipped, and many people scared of scammers. Yes, scammers over-flooded the interned and Instagram!
To make sure I m real and my puppies are existing you are very welcome to schedule a VIDEO CHAT with me in-person, plus you can see my Youtube and Instagram page with additional media posts. No one scammer would present you so many proves :))
All information including sample of the Puppy Purchase Agreement , Microchip number, Vaccination records will be disclosed to the buyer before you pay for the puppy.
Maximum of the information is posted publicly on my website for your convenience.
HOW RESERVATION PROCESS WORKS :
For initial reservation you will be asked to pay deposit, and the balance must be paid when you come for local pick it up. In case if you will order DELIVERY - the balance must be paid 48 hrs before scheduled date of the flight. Online payment must be processed before the scheduled flight.
I wont take a plane with your puppy until I get clear confirmation of the full payment has been received.
DEPOSIT AMOUNT
500-1000$ if you would like to pickup your puppy from my home location within 7-10 days,
30% of the total purchase price initial deposit in case if you would like me to deliver your puppy to your airport location out of California state.
Additional boarding fees 15$ per day will be applied to the total puppy purchase price if you would like to pick up your puppy later then in 10 days, and you want me to hold your puppy and take care of him/her until you will come and take him home.
Where are you located?
I have business locations in San Jose, CA and Miami, Fl. Pickup in person is available in Crestline, CA (San Bernardino County, its just 70 mls from Los Angeles Downtown, 100 mls from LAX, 35 mls from ONT airport). Or any location upon client's request. I personally deliver my puppies to your location (additional transportation fees will be applied).
Can I come over to see your puppies?
I am sorry, I do not allow visitors for my family's safety and the health and safety of my puppies.
It is not safe to bring strangers into one’s home nowadays. Safety of my puppies and my family members is my priority.
For perspective clients I offer initial meeting via Skype, Zoom or Facetime. We can video chat and I will show you my puppies online before you ll take a decision. Over the webcam you will see all available puppies, you will ask me questions or professional advise which one is best buddy for you!
I do not show pups in person locally for anyone who just curious. Chihuahua puppies are too small and fragile at early age. Some contagious canine diseases easily spread by people's shoes and cloth.
Do you offer delivery service?
Yes, local delivery within California state is available by car for additional cost (consider miles and hours of travel).
For out of California clients I offer hand delivery to the LAX , ONT and PSP airports locations for 100$ -200$ transportation fee.
Within US states I offer hand delivery by air flight for additional fees:
Delivery in-cabin with professional and trusted pet nanny cost approx 900$ - 1000$ , plus Vet Certificate fees for travel by plane.
Delivery expenses to be paid by the client in total prior flight booking.
You can use the Pet Transportation company of your choice as well.
NO CARGO SHIPPING for chihuahua puppies. It is simply impossible and dangerous to ship by Cargo such tiny creatures. Read my article about this topic here >>>
What type of PAYMENT do you accept?
I accept payments only in CASH when you come to pick up your puppy at my location.
For out of CA State clients and online deposits I accept payments via Wire Bank Transfer and ZELLE.
Also all kind of Western Union online transfers are possible if you are using your CREDIT card.
Wire Bank Transfer is possible too with 10% bank transaction fees.
I dont accept - Debit/Credit Cards, PayPal, Square etc payments to protect my business from fraud and unexpected chargebacks.
Can I pay after receiving the puppy?
Sorry, but I do not allow puppies to leave my home without full payment or online transfer cleared.
If you are not able to take your puppy home right away we can hold it for you up to 1 month.
How much are your puppies?
We offer only purebred Chihuahua puppies. Average market price for quality Chihuahua puppies is around 6000-12000 $ depends of dog size, gender, color and show quality of the species. Yes, great healthy teacup dogs just can't be cheap.
Our puppies are high quality pets, we breed them from European bloodlines, we invest time and money to train and supervise them, provide best super premium food, plus spend for necessary vet care and vaccinations. That is why we call them "Elite" puppies, and they are priced from 6000$ and up.
When you see puppies online offered for 1000$ - be aware of scam, this is NOT purebred chihuahuas. And for sure this is not a Teacup Chihuahuas at all. They come from backyard breeders with no health guarantee.
You can read my article about this topic here >>>
Do you have a waiting list?
If you're seriously interested in one of our puppies, you can submit a puppy application that will keep you on our contact list. Applicants are kept updated and contacted first on new puppies coming up.
Do you sell your your puppies with AKC papers?
Due I offer only PET rights for new owners, NO AKC papers , nor pedigree will be provided. My adults are not registered with AKC. I consider this formal detail absolutly unnesessary, not only because this cause additional out of pocket expenses, but also gives no guarantee for the show quality or health issues of the dogs...
I have a blog post explaining my point of view in regards of this topic. You can read it here >>>
Can you call me?
I do not set up phone calls at this time to talk to potential buyers. I m busy at my full time job, aside of my puppies, and with dozens of requests every week I would be on the phone all days long. I only prefer email-txt communications for new clients. Contact me via txt if you have any questions.
How can you guarantee adult weight?
Unfortunately, my experience tells me that adult weight can not be guaranteed. However you can expect your dog weight around approx weight accordingly the general size chart. If you are strict on getting a certain size or want one that'll stay 3 lbs, we suggest looking for puppy that's at least 5 months old so that way you have a better estimate of how big it'll stay.
Most of my puppies are weigh between 3-4.5 lbs at maturity. Again, it depends of what kind of diet you will choose for your future puppy. I have an article about my point of view here >>>
Can I get more pictures and videos of my puppy?
Yes, all pictures are current, I take new pictures every week as my pups are growing older. I post at least 3-4 photos of each puppy plus a video at the Available Puppies web page and on Youtube. If pictures or videos are less than a week old then I may not have the time to take extras. Please be sure that the pictures and/or videos I have posted are always current and updated.
Can I see parents of my puppy?
I dont keep adult dogs on site, at home. I have full time job , plus I travel with my husband and its difficult to keep all dogs with me. Adult dogs they live with my affiliate breeders/partners and have wonderful 24/7 care. Started as a hobby breeder, later on I have shared ownership of a few adult dogs with professional breeders. This approach allows me to pick one or two puppies from certain litters and make sure they are healthy and purebred dogs. However I will not disclose any personal information about my partners, their contacts and locations.
Please visit my page "Parents" where you can see pictures of our adult dogs.
Do you sell with full breeding rights?
No, my puppies are not for breeding. Teacup and Mini size Chihuahuas simply not allowed to participate breeding programs. This is cruel to breed Teacups! And I m standing for ethical breeding.
Pregnancy may cause severe health problems and death in small dogs. Whelping of such dogs require a lot of experience and knowlege. So, under the our Agreement terms - all puppies must be neutered/ spayed at the proper age.
If you are looking for Chihuahua puppy for future breeding you must choose a bigger individuals, about 5,5 lbs and up. We can talk if you are interested to buy a puppy specifically for your breeding program and I can offer you a good quality puppy with certain parameters for this term. But in this case you must be a lisenced breeder with experience.
In general, my dogs are not for breeding anyway.
What will the puppy comes with?
Our puppies ready to go to new home at age of 3-4 month, with all age appropriate shots, international veterinary passport, microchipped, properly dewormed, and fully examined by veterinarian.
How do I know I'm getting a puppy from a good environment?
Our dogs live in our home and are given the proper care they each deserve. I personally interact with my puppies and supervise them every day. I know personality and specific traits of each my baby. They are vet checked regularly and are all up-to-date on shots and preventatives.
Our puppies are raised in our home and will come to you healthy, well-socialized and pre-spoiled!
We don't offer STUD services currently, buy I may have offer it in future.
We don't provide payment plans to purchase our puppies.
But I m working out with some banks and credit unions for future collaboration.
Sincerely yours,
Yulia Sky Chihuahuas
