Chihuahua Club Garden Party
The Chairman Mr Graham Foote again kindly hosted a Chihuahua Club Garden Party at his home in Pease Pottage, Sussex on Sunday, 4th July, for "Chihuahuas and well-behaved others (people and small dogs)".

A good time was had by all, with excellent donated food and drink and many fun competions for the dogs and their owners.  The theme for the Fancy Dress class was American Independence Day.  All proceeds for the day went to Chihuahua Welfare.

Don't be tricked out of your money
With the current popularity of Chihuahuas, people desperate to obtain a puppy are sending off large amounts of money to people they've never met for dogs they've never seen.  Sadly many of them never receive the puppy they were promised, or ever see their money again.  Read our page Buying A Chihuahua to see how the Club can put you in touch with Club members who may have puppies for sale.  Our members are obliged to abide by our code of ethics
