Q. & A. with Neva
Why did you start breeding?
I regularly participate in conformation shows and lure coursing events. I started breeding to continue and improve upon my prized Afghan Hound line. It is an honor to represent this breed and create opportunities for others to experience the same joy that I've found in raising these wonderful dogs.
What makes your program special?
I am a Breeder/Owner/Handler of Afghan Hounds. I do not breed my dogs unless they are fully healthy and genetically tested. I am dedicated to always having responsible policies when it comes to breeding, socializing, and training my pups. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
