How much does a Chihuahua cost?
Purchasing a Chihuahua requires careful planning and research. Unregistered Chihuahuas can cost $100.00 or more whereas AKC registered chis can sometimes bring up to $600.00 or more. My advice is to purchase from a reputable breeder and never from a pet shop at the mall or puppy mill. You’ll get a better quality Chihuahua and a more reasonable price. Let me explain about “Puppy Mills”. Basically, a “Puppy Mill” is a home for Chihuahuas that are being bred for profit. In these situations, most of these breeders are notreputable, professional and have no regard to the Chihuahuas which they own and use for thier profitability. These Chihuahuas usually live in very bad conditions, are allowed to develop diseases that are not normally found at reputable breeder facilities and in most instances, you,the purchaser / buyer / prospective owner will never know the true lineage of the pet.
