About Small Puppies

Small dogs are bred directly from standard sized members of their breed to become smaller. These dogs can range from miniature, to toy, to teacup sizes. Miniature dogs are smaller than their standard counterparts, while toy breeds are smaller than miniatures. The smallest dogs are teacup breeds, which weigh less than 4lb fully grown. These little versions of bigger dogs can live in smaller homes and get more use from smaller yards. That being said, these breeds can sometimes be tougher to train....

Every breeder on Mawoo Pets is assessed for health, safety, and socialization standards.

We use a robust filtering process to eliminate any puppy mills.

What types of miniature dogs do you have for sale?

Our selection of miniature dogs includes a wide range of breeds such as: Yorkshire Terrier, French Bulldog, Miniature Pinscher, Pomeranian, Dachshund, and many more. Here are some of the most popular small dog breeds that we have available at Mawoo Pets.

What are your most popular mini dog breeds available for sale?

The most popular mini dog breeds we offer include the French Bulldog, Yorkshire Terrier, and Toy Poodle mixes (e.g., Yorkipoo, Maltipoo, Chi-Poo). These breeds are particularly loved for their unique temperaments and affectionate personalities.

What are the health considerations for mini dogs?

Mini dogs have some specific health considerations. Common issues for them include dental problems given their small mouths, susceptibility to cold weather, and genetic health issues like heart murmurs and luxating patellas (kneecap difficulties). Keep an eye out for these issues in your small breed dog and don't forget to pay consistent visits to your veterinarian!

How can I make sure a tiny dog is the right pet for my family?

Each small dog breed is different. Before bringing home a puppy, you should research the breed's energy level, temperament, grooming needs, and how well it can adapt to your living situation. Also, tiny dogs can require more attention and can suffer from separation anxiety, so consider that in your evaluation when choosing the right breed for you.

Are mini dogs suitable for families with children?

This varies by breed. Some mini dogs like Chihuahuas are not good with kids. They can feel threatened by them and may respond with aggression. Other breeds like Shih Tzus and Beagles are excellent (patient!) with kids. They enjoy play and rarely ever show aggression. Keep in mind that whatever breed you bring home, it's important to teach your kids gentle handling of your small pup as miniature dogs can be more fragile.

How long do mini dogs typically live?

Mini dogs typically have a longer lifespan than larger breeds. On average, they live from 12 to 15 years, with some toy breeds reaching 18 or even 20 years of age. So if you're in search of a long-term companion, a miniature dog breed can make an excellent choice.

What is the smallest dog breed you offer for sale?

The Chihuahua is the smallest dog breed that we offer. This adorable toy breed is known for its big personality as much as its tiny size. Chihuahuas are a popular choice for those seeking a compact companion.

Do small dog breeds require special care?

Yes. Small dog breeds require more careful feeding to avoid obesity (they can more easily be over-fed), regular dental care, and protection from harsh weather conditions.

What are the exercise needs of a tiny dog?

Tiny dogs generally require less physical exercise than larger breeds. This is part of what makes them suitable for apartment living. But some miniature breeds like Jack Russell Terriers are very active and need a lot of daily exercise. In general, you should plan for daily walks, playtime, and indoor activity to keep your puppy happy and healthy.

What are the personality traits of small puppy breeds?

Small puppy breeds are usually playful, affectionate, and intelligent. Some are more sociable while others are more reserved - this depends on the breed. Small breed dogs can also be more attached to their primary owner and may demand more attention.

What should I expect in the first few months with a little puppy?

The first 6 months with a new small puppy can be difficult. Adjustment is required as your pup gets used to her new home. You'll also have to think about potty training, teething, training (basic obedience commands), and socialization. In the first few months, puppies are curious and playful but also easily tire themselves out and require plenty of rest. Two other things to keep in mind are teething (i.e., have chew toys ready) and regular veterinary check-ups to monitor your pup's health in this critical period.
