Chihuahua (Long Coat), Christchurch NZ

AmigoReal is a Dogs New Zealand–registered Chihuahua kennel in Christchurch, New Zealand. Inspired by the breed’s heritage, our name “Amigo Real” means “Royal Friend” in Spanish, reflecting our deep admiration for these exceptional dogs. At AmigoReal, health, structure, and temperament are paramount. To ensure our Chihuahuas are as healthy and structurally sound as they are beautiful, we conduct DNA tests to eliminate hereditary conditions and perform comprehensive screenings: eyes, heart, patellas, hips (including Legg-Calvé-Perthes), and thyroid (T4). In 2020, we introduced rigorous protocols that set a new benchmark in New Zealand. For transparency, we proudly display each dog’s health results on their profile. We provide a nurturing environment and socialisation to raise well-rounded Chihuahuas. By exposing our Chihuahuas to diverse sights, sounds, and gentle handling, we cultivate confidence, adaptability, and resilience—whether they excel in the show ring or become treasured companions. Emphasising quality over quantity, we produce champions who excel in conformation and companions that embody the Chihuahua’s spirited charm. We stand behind every dog we breed, forming lifelong relationships with puppy families and offering support. Should a return become necessary, we guarantee a safe, loving home here at AmigoReal. Whether you seek a future show prospect or a devoted friend, an AmigoReal Chihuahua is more than a pet—it’s your Royal Friend for life.
