King Rufus of Reeces Pieces at Midwest

Call Name: Rufus

CKC Reg. No - CH-04180850

 

King Rufus of Reece's Pieces aka Rufus is our primary stud here at Midwest Chihuahuas.  Rufus is a beautiful, stunning boy, so small and with such a perfect applehead.  He is my most loving pet and friend and has been a wonderful dad to some truly nice puppies. Rufus is on his 17th litter (although primarily to outside females)!  He has a beautiful chocolate tri coat.  He has a dense double long coat.

For information on using Rufus as your future stud, check out our stud services page!  Then you can email to rufus@midwestchihuahuas.com for more information!

**Rufus is joined in stud service by his merle longcoat son Mason who was born off Satinka.  Midwest Chihuahuas is also thrilled to announce that Rufus' son Rajesh born off Jezebel will also be staying at Midwest Chihuahuas.

Rufus' Information

Rufus is full grown (born 06-22-2005) and is out of a wonderful large (now retired) breeder in lower Alabama.  Daddy was mature at UNDER 3#!  Mom weighed just over 3.5#.  Rufus' three generation pedigree carries ALL long coated chihuahuas.  Rufus has produced a myriad of colors in the litters he has sired.    He has a TINY apple head and weighs 3# even.  Temperment wise, Rufus is a lover.  He is CKC registered and available for stud service (with contract) to approved females. Rufus has bred with small females and so far we have had no complications.

**If you are new to breeding, please read our breeding frequently asked questions page for information on whether this adventure is right for you!  We only encourage responsible, prepared matings. 

Well Socialized

Rufus can and will get along with everyone!  Just check out the brood he is Alpha to!  Rufus is a loving adorable dog who quietly rules the roost of creatures big and small!  Here's proof! 

We are a home of multiple four leggers!  Aside from the chihuahuas, we are also blessed to have our lab and english bulldog (see our Guardians page) and a couple cats!  Strangely enough, everyone gets along well here and all are free to roam around the house!
