I'm Donna B., the breeder behind Chedon Chihuahuas located in Garland, TX. I carefully choose the sire and dam in to produce the best quality. I take great pride in the quality I produce. I do CHIC testing and Embark Testing on all Sires and Dams. Puppies are home raised and have fabulous personalities.
Q. & A. with Donna
Why did you start breeding?
I started in Yorkshire Terriers in the late 80’s breeding several very successful litters. I then chose to take time off to raise my two-legged girls. When they were both off at college, I decided to get back into dogs.
What makes your program special?
My program is special because my dogs are health tested and hand raised. I’ve developed my own program of raising puppies but use some Puppy Culture practices too. I have many repeat buyers because they love the temperments and soundness of my dogs.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have long coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
