Q. & A. with Alley

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I suffer from horrible allergies so when I found my male dog Duke I feel in love and knew I wanted to share this with other families.
  • What makes your program special?

    We health test our parent dogs and take great pride in raising our puppies and vetting new families so they get the perfect family for them!
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include parti, liver, black, and black and silver. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

    They live in my home.
