Below we have compiled some information that answers many of the questions we are frequently asked in emails
or by phone. It is our desire to be clear and honest in our communication with our customers, so we have typed up the
information for you to read at your leisure and if you have questions, always feel free to ask us via phone or email!
There are many factors involved when we price our puppies, but typically our puppies prices range from $500
to $750. This price includes 30-40 min of puppy care instructions at time of pick-up, we give our puppies their first puppy
shot to protect them from Parvovirus, Adenovirus 2, Parainfluenza and Distemper.
These are the foundational vaccines and the first is given to the puppy at age 6-7 weeks. Your puppy will
need three of these puppy shots to be completely protected from Parvo.
Each of these shots should be given 3-4 weeks apart. Until your puppy has had three of these shots they are
not fully protected from Parvo or the other viruses.
When they leave our home, they will have been wormed at 2,4,6,and 8 weeks of age for hookworms and roundworms
with Nemex 2. They come with a shot record, a baby blanket, a small bag of Purina Puppy Chow, their registration papers and
three sheets of puppy care instructions. We take a photo of your new puppy with you on pick up day and post it on our site
and send you a copy via email as well.
Budget Puppies/Adults
As much as we hate to admit it, some Chihuahua puppies just don't
meet breed standard. Either they will be larger than the typical Chi or they have different features that don't meet
our standard or the breed standard or they are older than the usual 8-12 wks puppy. They are still purebred Chi's and
still have their registration papers and they still have alot of love and affection to give their owners. However, due
to different factors of size, build, age, we reduce their prices and place them on the Budget Puppy Page of our site.
Sometimes we do not have any puppies/adults for sale there, but other times we do, so always check. Any adults that
we are selling will be found on this page of our site.
At times we have put together photo albums online for the customers of their new puppy from newborn age to
pickup age and email that to the customer for a keepsake.
We are also available for questions for up to a year after purchase via phone and email. If the deposit is
paid prior to 8 weeks then we send updated pictures of your puppy to you with updated stats during the time you are waiting
to take your puppy home. We provide shipping if needed and have puppies in Alaska and Canada as well as 21 different states
in the USA. Shipping is typically priced at $250-$300 depending on the airline used. Shipping cost are in addition to the
price of your puppy.
How do you place your puppy on "Hold"?
When a customer decides they want a puppy we have posted, they may hold that puppy with a non-refundable $200
deposit. Once the deposit is paid (through PayPal invoice via email), that puppy is on hold for that customer. It is
our policy to hold a puppy only with deposit paid. This assures us that the customer is serious and capable of taking
responsible steps in dog ownership. As much as "word of mouth" is valued by us, only the $200 deposit will hold a puppy.
After the $200 is paid, it is then deducted from the total amount of the puppy. The remaining balance is due at
time of pick up or prior to shipping.
| This October the butterflies are numerous! |

In the wooded hill country between Austin and San Antonio, Texas, is nestled our family
business and collection of precious Chihuahua puppies for sale. On occasion we have some adult Chihuahuas
available, as well. We do provide shipping throughout the 50 states.
It is our sincere hope that we can help you find that "perfect" puppy to add to your family.
Our prices vary with each puppy and if finances are tight, we have included our budget puppies which sell for a reduced adoption
fee. This is typically due to either age or larger size. Also, visit our past puppy page to view customers
and the puppies they bought from Hill Country Chihuahuas. Our gallery contains selected pictures of some
of the puppies our breeding program has produced.
We have puppies throughout the year and if you can't find exactly what you are looking for
one month, you might just find it the following month. We were established in 2004, and although we are somewhat young
in this business, animals have always been apart of our lives and family. Kick your boots off, hang your hat up and
linger on our site awhile. In Texas everything is bigger, and although our Chihuahuas are tiny little gifts from God,
their hearts are the size of this wonderful state...
Thank you for visiting!

God Bless America
Investments are an American tradition. We invest in people, places and things that we
believe will contribute to society and our families, impoving the quality of life. When you choose to invest in a puppy,
you are investing in something that will enrich your life. That puppy has the potential to calm you, comfort you, encourage
you, challenge you, protect you, entertain you, assist you in many ways on your journey through life. Dogs teach us
much about good ole, enduring character qualities such as loyalty, faithfulness, love, determination, protection, etc.
Choose your puppy carefully for they can live 15 years or more! Our hope is that we can assist you in finding that canine
companion that will be all the things you need him/her to be for many years to come. We want your investment to bring
years of benefits to your life and the life of your family!
