Meet the breeder

I'm Johnnatan L., the breeder behind Mozzafiato Chihuahuas located in Morrisville, NC. At Mozzafiato Chihuahuas, my focus is preserving and producing beautiful, healthy Chihuahuas that exemplify the breed in type, structure, temperament, and character. My program is built around carefully selected, health-tested dogs with strong pedigrees and proven quality in the AKC conformation ring. I’ve bred and finished multiple AKC champions, and every breeding is thoughtfully planned with the next generation in mind, not simply to produce puppies. Puppies are raised in my home with hands-on care, early socialization, and age-appropriate experiences to help them grow into confident, well-adjusted companions. Placement is very important to me, and I take time to get to know prospective families so I can make the right match. My responsibility doesn’t end at pickup. I’m committed to being a resource for the life of the dog. Mozzafiato is a small, purpose-driven program. Quality always comes before quantity.
