    Heather is a great gal, my experience with her could not be better. Heather taught me a lot about chihuahuas and how to take the best care of them, she is so knowledgeable about the breed, she answers any questions I had before I purchased the pup and after. My experience at the airport with her and my new puppy, I will cherish and never forget. I keep in touch with Heather, still asking her questions, and she responded to me right away, I also send her pictures of my new puppy so she can see how well he is doing. My puppy is so well behaved and desensitized to so much, he's had the best start in life with Heather, her breeding program is the best of the best, I will forever be grateful and I love my new puppy that I got from her.

    Heather was very knowledgeable and forthcoming about my dog Feta. She gave me all the information I asked for and more. When I picked him up on Halloween she had all his papers for me - and he was in costume! Heather breeds her chihuahuas for temperament and health, and Feta is a very healthy little sweetheart who adores everyone he meets, not just me. He's the perfect chihuahua. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Heather again.

    Heather is the best Boston Breeder in my opinion. She is very knowledgeable and takes the utmost care of the mother/father, and puppies. She goes the extra mile, so you get the healthiest puppy! We could be happier with our little Bonnie Mae (Aioli when she born) she is the sweetest and most well behaved puppy (most of the time lol) and we just love her so much. If you are looking for a Boston Terrier or Chihuahua puppy, then look no further than Heather from Itty Bitty Boston & Chi Co! Greg & Lee Loch

    This was the very best experience we have had with a breeder. Heather was kind, knowledgeable and caring. The transport of Tubber was slick and we were kept up to date on his arrival. Chris, who transported the puppy, was so thoughtful and caring. The puppy arrived happy and calm. We would definitely recommend Heather to anyone interested in getting a Boston Terrier.

    Heather was so responsive and very knowledgeable about chihuahuas. I knew from our first encounter that she was a loving breeder that treats her pups well and wants the best for her puppies. She talked me through the process and helped me decided whether this was the right choice for me and my family.

    Heather was quick to respond and answer any questions I had. She made accommodations for us to pick up our puppy on a later date and agreed to meet me at the airport for transfer. Guinness (now Chloe Guinness) is a wonderful addition to our family. We love her so much and are enjoying her personality a lot. Thanks!
