About Us

In the prime of my life at 36 years old, I was raised in a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio as a child. I entered the military and lived many different places as an adult.  I am the Mom to 2 lovely and wonderful daughters and one son who sadly watches me from Heaven as he was a SIDS baby.  Our dogs now are like my little children, I baby them and love them and I hope it is obvious to everyone who comes in contact with them!  Midwest Chihuahuas is my full time job.  Although we do not have puppies year round (and do not recommend buying from breeders who do), there is a lot of work here with the development of our parents, working with our pregnant moms, raising babies, assisting and keeping up with our Chihuahua families, all the business bookkeeping, helping other breeders...wow...sometimes I know a regular job would afford me more time, but I love what I do with all my heart.  My children love the puppies and are so into naming them, Dennis is so sensitive and loving with them and I am with them most of the day for 90% of their life.  I rarely go out nights (or days!), don't really vacation, all for the love of this!  I don't want to raise a LOT of Chihuahuas, or the smallest, or the most exotic...I raise some small, some very exotic puppies, but what I want is to raise healthy, well adjusted, socialized, hands on puppies in a loving and open family enviornment that grow to be the center of someone's universe.  That is why there is a Midwest Chihuahuas.
