Q. & A. with Jan
Why did you start breeding?
During Covid I had the opportunity to start breeding. My dogs are based in some of the best blood lines in this breed.
What makes your program special?
I breed at home, they have older dogs to socialize with. They are introduced to children, teenagers, adults. They learn to sleep in a crate but are stuck in one all day.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are salt and pepper. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
