Meet the breeder
I'm Christine B., the breeder behind CristinaXio Chihuahuas located in Buffalo, NY. I breed because I love this breed, not for profit. My dogs are raised in our busy family and are well-socialized through everyday life, from outings to family activities. Every puppy is loved from day one and given the best start before joining its forever home.
Q. & A. with Christine
Why did you start breeding?
I fell in love with Chihuahuas during a family vacation to Puerto Rico. Their big personalities and loyal nature completely won me over. About a year later I welcomed my first Chihuahua, and it wasn't long before a second joined our family. What started as a love for the breed naturally grew into a passion for raising and sharing these incredible little dogs.What makes your program special?
My puppies are raised in the heart of our home as part of our family, not in a kennel. They experience everyday life from an early age, including children, household sounds, visitors, and outings. I focus on early socialization, individual attention, and providing each puppy with the best possible start before they join their forever family.What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies include long and smooth coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, cream, gold, chocolate and tan, cream and white, chocolate and white, black and white, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
