Hi, my name is Toni Kincaid. I have been a animal lover all my life! I cannot even imagine living without my dogs. Ever since I was a little girl dogs have been the focus of my life. I started training and showing my Collie and Shih-Tzu in obedience and jr. handling in 1982. Dog showing has always been a true joy.
In 1996, I got my first Chihuahua long coat named Mia.
I rescued Mia from the vet clinic I was working for at the time. Mia was the reason I fell in love with the breed! Because Mia was six years old when I got her, and she was spayed, I never showed or bred her. She was my wonderful lap companion. Mia passed away of congestive heart failure in September of 1999. It was very unexpected since she was mid-life and it was very devastating! I decided then that I wanted to find another Chihuahua to be my companion. I also decided I wanted to find a Chihuahua I could show and breed. I looked for quite some time and then I found Spirit on the Internet. I went to the Richland dog show to look around more and to meet Spirit's breeder, Terry Crofton. I fell absolutely in love with Spirit's colors-a very unique color I call a wolf sable. He is colored like a wolf. In September of 2000 I brought Spirit into my family. Thank you, Terry Crofton, for letting us have such a very special boy in our family!
After a lot of searching and a few bumps in the road I got an absolutely beautiful female Chihuahua long coat from Melissa Vannoy, named Vannoy's Pansy. Thank you Melissa Vannoy for letting us have such a very special little girl in our family.
My goal for breeding Chihuahuas as I mentioned before is for the love of the breed and to breed for the betterment of the breed. Breeding and showing Chihuahuas is fun for my dogs, and I. If I ever felt that this was not in our dogs' best interest I would stop. For the love of the Chihuahuas means making sure that everything you do is in the best interest of the breed and our beloved dogs
