I was pet sitting my moms 12 year old teacup poodle and my 10 MONTH old chiauhua was in heat and now it looks like shes pregnant. I only wanted to breed her once and definitely not this early but I'm not sure if I have a choice now. Do you think I'll have a problem getting rid of the pups, that is if they even survive, she's still just a baby.

Let me clear this up. I did NOT think my mom's dog was capable of getting my dog pregnant, he's 12 years old!

pretty much any breed mixed with a poodle is worth $$$ most people think the mixed breeds are great!!, not mutts like we used to think. I think this mix would be an awesome companion for an older couple or single person. Don't sell these for peanuts, I,m betting on the $300-$400 range!! Check out the listings in the big city papers.

First off there is NO such thing as a tescup Poodle. They are Toy poodles that were bred smaller then the standard allows (which is not good healthwise)
No they really aren't worth a lot of money, they are mixes and can be found in pretty much any shelter across the country.Of course you can find tons of BYB & puppy mill sights that will condone the breeding of mixes and will be selling them for high prices which is totally ridiculous since you can find tons of these mixes as well as other "poodle" mixes in shelters & rescues for a lot less money.
What to call the pups... Toy Poodle mixes or Chihuahua mixes.
I sincerly hope your girl doesn't have any problems. Toy breeds are at high risk for pregnancy & whelping complications under the best of circumstances, but because your girl is just a puppy herself she is at even greater risk. Be prepared for low blood sugar, emergency c-sections, low/no milk production, stillborn pups, small litter size, weak pups, etc.
There is no reason for any dog to produce a litter before being spayed.the longer left intact the greater her chances become of mammary cancer, reproductive cancers, pyometria (a very serious often fatal uterine infection) and male dogs are fertile and capable of reproducing well into theri teens barring any other medical issues.

No, a Chi-poo is not, should not, be worth anything. Not registerable, therefore not worth a monitary value. This breed cross is, unfortunately, getting common and people who think they have something special want to call them Chi-poos. It's a Mutt.
I would call it a puppy mill in the progress. So many people are wanting small breed dogs that every Tom, Dick, and Jane is jumping on the wagon to produce small cross-breeds in the hopes of making money.
Ethical breeders are not interested in making money....they are interested in improving the qualities of the breed.

It's NOT a puppy mill. It's called "an accident." In my opinion, if she's really pregnant, then you should first talk to your vet about what care she needs and what care the puppies will need after she has them (i.e. shots and the like). And then either give them away to people you know will be good for them OR charge those same people to just cover the vet costs for the puppies.
And then get her spayed. Please. There are already TOO MANY puppies being born every year.

The other day as I was walking a lady had a dog (chih/poodle mx) that mix; he was small and very cute. Only you can put a price on the mix and if the dog is mixed with tea-cup that may help, because where I live tea-cups are worth about 475.00.

They're called mutts. And they're worth a negative amount of money, when you pay for vaccinations, spaying or neutering, and vet care for mom and pups. (And with a chihuahua mother, I think you should start saving for her emergency C-section, and start praying she survives the experience.)
Responsible breeders lose money on litters. And that's selling purebred dogs of champion lineage.

Get her spayed right way and you won't have to worry about it. Just what this world needs! More mutts to die in the shelters.

They are worth NO $$$ Money $$$ and to the Troll s.o.b. that bred them,
you aren't going to get sh*t for them.
YOU CANNOT EVEN SPELL THE BREED OF DOG YOU HAVE.
I would call this designer breed "SHORT LIVED" because they are P'sOf Sh*t.
They aren't worth anything you BYB Troll.
NOW GO, GET BACK UNDER YOUR BRIDGE before the Norwiches get back

You would call it a mutt and you'll be lucky to give them away.
