Meet the breeder

I'm Michelle C., the breeder behind Western Kentucky Chihuahua’s and Chinese Crested’s located in Henderson, KY. I am a licensed breeder of top-quality purebred Chihuahuas and Chinese Cresteds. I genetically test my breeding dogs for genetic health to ensure we only produce beautiful, intelligent, physically & mentally sound puppies. We go the extra mile for our puppies & adopting families.

Q. & A. with Michelle

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I’ve always owned chihuahuas and after spending time with a friend who is an AKC Judge discussing breeding she piqued my interest. After much contemplation and research, I decided to begin my search for just the right pair. The rest is this joyous journey I’m on today. After becoming acquainted with the Chinese Crested breed I adopted my first one and fell head over heels.

  • What makes your program special?

    I am a licensed breeder. Breeding pairs are genetically tested for optimum genetic health I breed for physically and mentally sound puppies. Our puppies don’t go a day without special one-on-one interaction. Puppies' health is guaranteed. I remain a lifetime resource for both the puppy and the puppy's new family.

  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our Chinese Crested puppies include powderpuff and hairless coat varieties. Chihuahua puppies include smooth and long coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.

    This was the best experience I have ever had purchasing my new little baby. Michelle was wonderful to work with. You can tell she loves each and every puppy. She sent us regular pictures as we waited to be able to pick up our new little girl and bring her home, just in time for Christmas. Good Dog was awesome to work with as well. I knew exactly what I needed to do and well Michelle, made it happen for us. We love our little Angel so very much.

    For a while I was looking for a dog and it’s really important that they’re loved and cared for before picking them up, Michelle’s love for these little guys is so warm and beautiful. I wouldn’t pick anyone else to get a puppy from. Throughout the process she would send photos and she stays in touch before and after. She knows what she’s doing and she loves it.

    Michelle is an excellent breeder and a wonderful person. My granddaughter had lived with me for 2 years and had a chihuahua and when they moved I was so sad. I looked on Good Dog and found her on the website because she was close to me and had Chihuahuas. I contacted her and she had one little sweet girl and if another person didn’t call back for her, she could be mine. Well i prayed this would happen and it did! It was a God thing. On May 24 2025 I went to Kentucky to Western Kentucky Chihuahua’s and Chinese Crested’s and picked up my sweet baby! Michelle gave me a little tote with all the things I would need for her and she has called and checked on us several times since! I have made a friend for life in Michelle and found my sweet little Daisy

    I’m so thankful I found Western Kentucky Chihuahua and Chinese Crested on Good Dog 🤍 they were responsible through the waiting period and delivered above and beyond expectations. Bitty (that is now now named Tilly) immediately stood out to me since she shared my childhood nickname. I had been looking for a while and I didn’t have to settle AT ALL with this beautiful girl. She is literally the chi of my dreams: looks, temperament, intelligence. You can tell that these pups are interacted with and prioritized from day one. I even got to know Tilly’s grandmother through the Facebook group briefly as I discovered her passing. Michelle raises these dogs as family, for life and it’s evident. Thank you for my sweet girl WKyC&C!
