Meet the breeder

Q. & A. with Tishar

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My father sparked my love for dogs. I spent many years participating in dog trails and training with him. My future goal is to start a companion therapy program. Cotons de Tulear are known for their "anti-depression" qualities due to their consistently happy demeanor.

  • What makes your program special?

    We are dedicated to preserving the full spectrum of Coton de Tulear colors. Bichon Frise, sharing the same ancestry, unfortunately lost its color diversity due to selective breeding for white coats. Our Cotons offer so many wonderful qualities, bringing immense love and happiness to our family and those who welcome them into theirs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include tri-color, black and white, black, and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Tishar was terrific. She shared her knowledge and expertise in an effort to make this a smooth and easy transition for little Pearl and me. Tishar seemed to put the welfare of the puppies ahead of profit or even a sale. I'm very satisfied with Avana Cotons. And Pearl is smart and rambunctious and just what I hoped for.
