Petit Paws - Small Dogs with Great Love
Behind the kennelprefix Petit Paws you´ll find me, Petra.
Dogs have always been a part of our home.
My very first own chihuahua arrived in 2003.
Safe to say he changed my life, the lovely Tiny Honey´s Bon Jovi.
Stemming from Pähkinä and some
Misty Meadows lineages. He taught me to love breed typical, well moving, sound dogs. Bon Jovi became a champion
(even though we were never supposed to go down the road of dog shows...)
- Luckily we did!
... More chihuahuas followed and so did more friends within chihuahua.

Since 2003 the number of dogs has increased steadily: A clear case of "Multiple Chihuahua Syndrome." ;)
I only keep up to 3-4 dogs at home simultaneously, because I strongly believe in the chihuahua being a
companion-dog and therefore needs a lot of attention. A chihuahua loves to play with other chis, but nothing can replace an active owner who has time for each individual dog.
I even got my parents infected with the chihuahua-bug. So much so that my mother now has joined in with her own kennel prefix, Sejamore. I occasianally show her dogs, therefore they are also featured on our page.
Our breeding-plans are individual but we have a joint web-page and have also co to co-operate in other ways.

Petit Paws and Sejamore kennel do not breed litters every year - We only breed small scale, in home-suroundings, wanting to evaluate and compete with our dogs before including them in breedingplans.
None of this doginess would be possible without the wonderful support of my family. They are amazing! The chihuahua has become a vast and important part of our family. I am very happy and grateful for this.

In 2008 I passed my breeders exam and then applied for a kennel prefix in Finland. 2009 this prefix Petit Paws, moved with me to Sweden. Petit Paws is partly therefore largely based on "Finnish lines" - Thus this admitting that most of our pedigrees of course include the international chihauhua scene.

It is our vast hope and goal that every puppy finds the very best of homes.
Hoping, that every puppy will bring much joy to its new home.
We stand by our breeding and we are happy to help.
Our puppy-buyers are always welcome to contact us and draw the benefit from us
having had chihuahuas and being involved in the breed since 2003.
Welcome to the wonderful world of chihuahuas!
Yours;
