Q. & A. with Ivana
Why did you start breeding?
Fell in love with the breed and what they bring into a family ❤️What makes your program special?
Our puppies and dogs are family raised! They are extremely socialized and familiar with all types of sounds, smells, other animals, people etc. (Even the occasional fire truck 🚒) we pride ourselves in raising healthy and happy puppies who make wonderful family pets ❤️
