Meet the breeder

I'm Zaya A., the breeder behind Andersons Toy Box LLC located in Virginia. We are Dalmatian lovers through and through! Our dogs are such an important part of our lives, and we can’t imagine being without them. It’s an amazing experience as breeders to provide others with Dalmatian puppies that we know will bring them the same joy!

Q. & A. with Zaya

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I really like the concept of a working dog, and wanted to breed for my dream working dog! That lead me to the uniqueness, determination and love of the Dalmatian.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our program stands out from the rest by working to introduce our Dalmatians into the “working” category! The plan is to eventually get our dogs into personal protection, scent detection, and more! Our puppies also come with an amazing health guarantee. As well as being potty trained and well socialized before leaving our home. We are also a mentee of Master Trainer Harold Hamilton.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include white and lemon, white and liver brown, and white and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

    Zaya was very responsive and knowledgeable about Dalmatians. You can tell he really cares about his dogs. He stayed in touch and sent me regular updates as I progressed through the process. He was very forthcoming with information and provided all records to date on my puppy! When I took puppy home, he is staying in touch to offer tips and answer questions, he has been great! Good Dog made the process very easy from the beginning to the end. I am so glad I found Zaya through Good Dog and would recommend the website and Zaya to anyone looking for a new puppy!

    My experience with Zaya was amazing! He was very professional throughout my puppy buying process. He communicated with me if I had any concerns or questions. His service was excellent and I definitely would work with with him again if I want to get another puppy. I would highly recommend customers checking out his page you will not be disappointed. My puppy Stormi is super friendly and loves to play all day. She is very high energy and stays active. I absolutely love her.

    Hello I do not give many reviews however I feel obligated to give Anderson’s Toy Box a well deserved 10 out of 10. We received our Dalmatian Ms Lou roughly 3 weeks ago and she has been amazing. I know a big part of this is because the love I saw first had from Zaya Anderson and the rest of the dog lovers at Anderson’s Toy Box. When Lou arrived she was attached to Zaya and his wife. I feel this is nit a common trait in the”breeding “ business. These folks are genuine dog lovers and it shows in the warm personality our Dalmatian has. She loves her big brother because of the social skills that Zaya instilled in her. Only a couple of potting training accidents which is WAY less than expected because of the work love and affection Zaya and Anderson’s Toy box put into raising such wonderful puppies. They have given our family a love that is priceless. Thank you again for being genuine and loving in raising this wonderful breed of dog.

    Excellent service from this breeder. My puppy was ready and I couldn’t have asked for a better new best friend. She is everything and more than I could have expected. I thank Andersons Toy Box for everything.
