When people decide that they have a place in their heart (and home) for a tea cup chihuahua (or teacup chihuahuas!), the first thing that most people do is hop on the internet and look for a good local breeder that they can go and visit.

If a local breeder has some adorable teacup chihuahuas, the decision to purchase is made pretty quickly. In all honestly, who cannot help but love an adorable tea cup chihuahua pup?

Unfortunately, there are a number of owners that do not do their homework before purchasing a tea cup chihuahua. If the owner and the tea cup chihuahua are not a good fit, the tea cup could find herself being sold to new owners, or find that her new home is an animal shelter.

If you have made the decision that teacup chihuahuas are for you, why not also check with your local animal shelters? With teacup chihuahuas being so popular, some undoubtedly end up in a shelter once the novelty has worn off. Teacup chihuahuas you may find in an animal shelter need just as much love as one you buy from a breeder!

With this in mind, perhaps you have rescued a tea cup chihuahua (or even a “standard” chihuahua) from a pet shelter? Maybe the chihuahua was found wandering the streets cold and hungry or was rescued from an unsuitable environment?

If you have rescued a chihuahua and you have a story to tell, would you be interested in sharing your story and perhaps seeing it in print?

If so, I may just be able to assist you! Kyla Duffy over at www.happytailsbooks.com would be interested in hearing your story. Kyla is currently putting together a book based on stories from rescued chihuahua owners. I understand that a significant portion of the proceeds will be going to assist with dog rescue efforts. Sounds like a win/win to me!

If you are interested in submitting your story, you can share your “tail” here – http://happytailsbooks.com/submit.htm
