Finding either a free adult chihuahua or a free puppy may not be nearly as hard as you think. Now if you're looking for a specific breed for show or breeding purposes, then that's an entirely different story, but if you're looking for a good family job, then you have a lot of options.
In the country, it's not uncommon for a farmer or some families to let their DOGS roam outside. While this is great for the DOGS, it also leads to a lot of pregnancies and liters of puppies that the family may not want.
Bulldogs have unusually large heads. In fact, due to the way in which they've been bred, bulldogs have trouble delivering young. All bulldog puppies are delivered by caeserean section now. The mothers can't deliver the heads naturally.
Sometimes a hunter will want one or two puppies from a good hunting DOG, but not necessarily the others. Asking around, or paying attention to small town newspapers will often lead you to families who are looking to give away free puppies, or even older chihuahuas. It's not uncommon to get chihuahuas who are several months old because the family couldn't find homes for all the puppies. Sometimes this is even a better option because these chihuahuas may be used to children or house broken.
Also pay attention when people are making a major move. If your neighbors have a sweet chihuahua, but are moving from a town to a cramped apartment in a huge city, then they might very well rather see their sweet chihuahua in a good home rather than at a shelter, and if the chihuahua at least knows you, this could ease the burden a little bit for you and the new pet.
The smallest breed of dog recognized by the American Kennel Club is the Chihuahua, which stands six to nine inches at the top of the shoulders and generally weighs two to six pounds. Their size makes them excellent travel companions.
There are always people looking for good homes for their puppies and DOGS, so just keep an eye open and ear to the ground, and you are sure to come up with some great options for your new pet without having to spend a penny.
The greyhound breed originally came from Egypt and was developed about 5,000 years ago. The greyhound breed was known before the ninth century in England, where it was bred by aristocrats to hunt small game.
