yet you knowingly chose to adopt a breed with known problems, a breed that some breeders will cull problematic puppies.
[/B]You seem to not be reading what I wrote. They are not from a breeder. Also, how would the puppies be 'problematic'?[/B]
I think that people should stop keeping chihuahua's when there are KNOWN problems that are stressing them in their lives. After all, if there's a CHANCE that some of them could have problems that might cause stress in their lives, then those people who keep them are STUPID to keep them. You know stress directly affects their quality of life, and we can't have that. No way, no how!

Especially when chihuahua breeders are...gasp....culling puppies! O-M-G!

Come with me - let's go find a dog forum and spread the word - down with chihuahuas!!! No one should ever breed chihuahua's ever again!!!!
[/B]I am against breeding ANY dogs. Not just Chihuahuas. If someone offered me a free pet spider ball python, I would either take it as a pet, or sell it. I wouldn't breed it.[/B]
