All of our puppies are socialized with children and other dogs. Limiting the number of dogs and litters we have allows us to give the individual love and attention they deserve.
Q. & A. with Rose
Why did you start breeding?
I fell in love with the American Staffordshire Terrier. I decided to start my own responsible breeding program. My contribution is to breed healthy Amstaffs with amazing temperaments. I’m passionate about the breed and am dedicated to producing healthy, quality dogs.What makes your program special?
I believe in quality, not quantity. Temperament and health pf my pups are most important to me, and I base my breeding decisions accordingly. I prioritize temperament, health, structure. I strive to breed as close to the breed standard as possible. It is always my goal to produce show-quality dogs, and all of my puppies make wonderful companions.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
