Puppy Care Instructions
**READ THIS!**

Dealing with stress: You are the proud owner of a new pet baby which needs all of the tender loving care of any new
baby. TLC doesn’t mean constant handing, petting and playing with. The wait is over and it’s finally time to bring home
your puppy. Before that happens, there are a few very important preparations that need to take place.
Stress is the main cause of illness and death in newly acquired puppies! There are many sources of stress.
Simply moving a puppy to a new home, holding him too much, contending with another pet, or being allowed too much
playtime are just few of the many sources of stress. A new puppy is nervous and excited because they are unfamiliar
with their surroundings and their new families and this causes a lot of stress. They are like babies and need regular
scheduled times for eating, sleeping, drinking, going potty, and playing.

A playpen is the most important item to have for your new puppy (Tiny and Toy breeds specifically), this can
include a small enclosed are in a quite room of your home if you do not have a playpen or wish not to use one. The
playpen serves two purposes. It will house-train your pet and protects its health and well being while it grows. The pen
provides a secure, comfortable place where he can rest, eat, drink, and play at his own pace. The pen should be placed
in an area where the temperature stays consistent all of the time.   Avoid areas that are drafty (cooling vents). Provide
a comfortable bed in the pen since puppies sleep approximately 90% of the time until they are older.

Potty Training. Your new puppy has been using a litterbox! We use a plain litter box that you can purchase at Wal-
Mart or an pet supply store. We use YESTERDAY'S news litter. This is recycled newspaper and is NON-TOXIC!
Perfect for puppies and children to be around. You may also chose to use the potty pad method. We use both and it is
working famously!!

Avoid excessive handling. Too much of this can add stress and overtire your puppy. A tired puppy will not eat. He
only wants to sleep. Missing a meal can be a life-threatening thing with a young puppy. It can lead to a condition call
hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). This can become dangerous if not noticed and tended to immediately. Do not take
your tiny/toy puppy to public places at first. They are more susceptible to communicable canine diseases and viruses.
You never know what sick puppy has just been walking, playing, or used the bathroom where you just set your puppy
down out in public. You also do not know what dogs that people have handled that want to touch your puppy. Under
any circumstances, DO NOT take your new puppy to a pet store or local PetsMart/Petco. They have a clinic in there
and you must know that unfortunately some people only take their puppies/dogs to the vet when they are sick. Please
refrain from this until they have had all of their puppy vaccines! It is easier to just avoid taking him out and around
people for the first month or two.

Hypoglycemia is a central nervous system disorder caused by low blood sugar levels. It occurs mainly in tiny and toy
breeds between 6 and 16 weeks of age. Stress is the leading cause. The first signs are listlessness and depression.
They are followed by muscular weakness, vomiting and/or diarrhea, tremors (especially the facial muscles), and later
convulsions, coma, and most likely death. The entire sequence of symptoms is not always noticeable. The puppy may
simply appear to be depressed or he may be weak, wobbly (punch drunk), and jerky; or he may be found stiff, unable to
coordinate or in a coma.
Hypoglycemia can occur without warning when a puppy is placed in a new home or while being shipped. It might
appear after a puppy misses a meal, becomes too cold, is exhausted from too much playtime, or has a digestive
problem. These problems cause added strain on the energy reserves of the liver and bring on the symptoms. We do
not guarantee against this condition because it is due to a lack of proper care. Treatment is directed at
restoring the blood levels of glucose, and it must begin at once! Begin by administering a mouthful of karo syrup or
honey. He may not be able to swallow it all at once, but it will begin to absorb under the tongue and bring him back to a
conscious state, which will allow him to swallow the rest. Contact your Vet immediately!! You must get food (protein
and sugars) in the puppy as soon as possible! To prevent recurrent attacks, make sure your puppy is eating regularly.
Never skip a feeding! It could result in his death.

Feeding Instructions. Leave out dry food for the puppy to eat all of the time. Your new puppy has been eating
DIAMOND PUPPY (in the purple bag) This can be found at Tractor supply, Pet supply and most farm supply stores.
We do not suggest changing his diet. This could cause diarrhea, which could lead to dehydration and death in your
puppy.    If the puppy is young, it is sometimes difficult for him to eat dry food only because he is cutting teeth and his
mouth is sore. Therefore, you may need to soak the dry food in hot water for about 10 min to soften it. Do this while
also leaving our a bowl of dry food so that your new puppy may acclimate himself to it. As you notice your new puppy
eating dry food better, gradually decrease the soft food. Within a few weeks you should have your puppy eating dry
food only. *Many people believe that a puppy will not eat the first few days after it changes homes. This is a myth and
should be taken seriously. A puppy should always eat. However, your puppy may become finicky due to stress, nerves,
etc…You may need to give him some plain boiled chicken (in small amounts) to help coax him to eat. *DO NOT give
your puppy Homogenized milk! It will give him severe diarrhea.* This should be used as a supplement only if the
puppy stops eating. Within a few a days, he should be adjusted and will begin to eat only his dog food.

For puppies under six months old, leave out small Puppy-Bites (dry dog food) all of the time. As puppies will
nibble and not fill up at any single setting, therefore they need to eat more frequently. After the age of 6 months, you
may set food out three times a day: breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Dogs under stress or recuperating from illness need special feeding. It is a good idea to give any tiny dogs
under stress a couple drops of honey to keep their sugar and energy up. The stress of changing homes, holidays, travel,
over-handling, etc…can really wear out your new little one. Of course, this applies only in cases where there are no
loose stools. Look to Coccidiosis in this paper work.

Coccidiosis: This is a very minor ailment that all dogs are capable of having when stressed, especially puppies. Your
puppy is free of coccidiosis at this time. However, with environment, schedule, diet and water changes, he may break
with it. Your new baby may have coccidia if you see mucous or a trace amount of blood in his stool. If left untreated,
this could cause dehydration and result in death. Please take your puppy to the vet as soon as possible. Your vet will
take a stool sample, examine it under a microscope and probably prescribe an antibiotic called Albon. This is an
inexpensive, low-grade antibiotic that will eliminate the bacteria within about 10 days.

*****This is just a helpful bit of information to help you care for your new baby. Please know that not all of these
described things may happen to your baby, but we want you to be well informed and prepared for situations that may
arise. Thank you for your purchasing your puppy from Chi Royalty and please keep in touch and call us with any
concerns or question you may have. We are only a phone call away.

From our family to yours, wishing you love, faith and
happiness in 2010!

There is NO SUCH puppy as a 'Teacup' or 'POCKET' or 'MICRO' puppy!! Many are suckered
DO NOT be fooled! Your teacup puppy may turn into a TEAPOT!
**We offer a SIZE Guarantee on our tiniest babies, so you know just what you are getting!! Ask
the person that you are inquiring about a puppy if 'they offer a size guarantee'!
*As a disclaimer I must mention that in advertisements, we may use the term 'teacup' or 'tiny' or other keywords to describe our puppies. This is because these
are key words that people use while looking for a small Chihuahua. I ALWAYS ask first what size at adult hood are you looking for . For a long time I would
explain to each and EVERY person the 'teacup myth', but we have rose above that and only want to give our clients what they are looking for. If you have
any questions about our experiences with other breeders, feel free to ask. We will only answer your questions truthfully and honestly. We do have an
affinity for the small Chi babies, and breed for quality and temperament in a tiny package! *Just so that you are aware, the tiniest of the HEALTHY
Chihuahuas are a RARE occurrence, The 2-3lb babies. IF a breeder boasts that they breed/broker teacup /POCKET puppies, they are lying to you. The 2-3lb
babies that are healthy, are not born in every litter, therefore not common. Most of our babies are 3-4lbs at maturity, and we do have the occasional extra
tiny babies.
READ BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THE "TEACUP" CHIHUAHUAS!

Sponsored by The Chihuahua Club of America

The official A.K.C. Breed Standard describes the Chihuahua as a small dog that comes in two varieties or coats types. The differences in coat type (the Long
Coat or the Smooth Coat) is the only official description used to identify a difference within this breed. Our Standard does not categorize the Chihuahua by size.

For the purpose of showing and record keeping, the American Kennel Club includes the Chihuahua (along with 17 other breeds) in the Toy Group. Therefore,
irrespective of their weight or physical stature, ALL Chihuahua registered with A.K.C. are considered to be a toy breed of dog.

As with all living things, there will be a size variance between individual dogs within this breed. Look within the human family - brothers and sisters will differ in
height and in weight, as well as other physical attributes. They are described as humans, male or female, and there is seldom if ever a need to break the
description down further. The same holds true in regard to the Chihuahua; they are Chihuahuas-Long Coat/Smooth Coat, Male/Female.

Unfortunately, the additional adjectives used to describe the size differences and physical appearances are many; and have been misused for so long they now
seem legitimate. Tea-Cup, Pocket Size, Tiny Toy, Miniature or Standard - are just a few of the many tags and labels that have been attached to this breed
over the years. The Chihuahua Club of America is concerned that these terms may be used to entice prospective buyers into thinking that puppies described in
this way are of greater monetary value. They are not; the use of these terms is incorrect and misleading.

Occasionally, within a litter, there may be a puppy that is unusually small. That pup is a small Chihuahua and any other breakdown in description is not correct.
To attach any of these additional labels to a particular pup is to misrepresent that animal as something that is rare or exceptional and causes a great deal of
confusion among those new fanciers who are looking for a Chihuahua.

The Chihuahua Club of America does not endorse or condone the use of any of these terms and would caution the perspective puppy buyer not to be misled by
them. We recognize that many Chihuahua fanciers do want the very small puppy. While they are adorable, and can be perfectly healthy, the buyer should be
cautioned as to the extra care that may be required with regard to the general health and well-being.

The TEACUP puppy is, in reality, a premature puppy. Most females are bred on the ninth through the fifteenth day of their heat cycles. Eggs can be fertilized
for up to 72 hours after any of these breeding's. Therefore, it is possible to have puppies conceived up to a week or so younger than the puppies first Conceived
in a litter. However, when the first puppies conceived are mature and ready to be born, labor starts and all the puppies will be born, no matter when they
were fertilized.

This explains why you have some bigger and some smaller puppies in a litter. There are no "runts" In a litter, merely younger puppies. These younger puppies
may not be fully developed. Their problems may be hidden until later in puppy hood.

Some of the smaller, yet just as serious, problems that may occur are hypoglycemia, (low blood sugar) or seizures.
