We look forward to connecting with you!
About Kimberly
We have been breeding Chihuahuas for over 25 years. All are raised in our home and sleep with us. I was a vet tech for over 30 years. Our pups go to my fabric shoppe for socializing. I have attended breeding seminars and showed for a couple of years as well. We have big dogs and grandkids for socializing. Car rides are a must!
What makes Kimberly’s program special
My Chihuahuas come first. I am always there when they come into labor and always have my vet on standby. My dogs are set up with a birthing bag and all items necessary. They sleep in the bed with me at night for the first week. They are intelligent, loyal, and cute as can be!

Puppies are dewormed 3 times, are vaccinated at 6 weeks, and receive Da2Pp+C. They also see the Vet at 6 weeks for a general checkup. If I have puppies longer because they are too small, I will do their second vaccination at 9 weeks and 12 weeks if needed. Puppies also receive a fecal check.
We send our puppies home with Initial potty training, Toys, Food & treats, Vet records, Registration, Blanket with mom & littermates’ scent, Blanket with Littermates' and Mom's scents, and Food Starter Bag.

“We do not ship our pups. Pick up your pup in Amelia or Gloucester, Va. My husband does travel some N. & S. of Va. There would be a travel charge. Pups must be paid in full before arranged travel plus the travel fee.”
Why Kimberly started breeding
I started with Doberman Pinschers 40 years ago. My female-Teagan was awesome. I moved and then started again with my Chihuahuas. I love to watch folks that get my babies love on them forever. It is so fulfilling!
