Q. & A. with Rita

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always been involved in some sort of breeding. I love the entire process and decided that after I got my first Shih Tzu that I was hooked on this breed. I absolutely love watching the puppies grow and the joy in the faces of the new families they forever join.

  • What makes your program special?

    I am committed to raising happy, healthy and loving puppies. I spend lots of time with my puppies socializing them with other dogs, cats, kids and normal household sounds to help best prepare them for their new homes. I help with perspective families to pick the perfect match for them.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Rita was amazing to work with from start to finish. She made the entire process feel comfortable and easy, and was always very responsive to my messages. She shared photos right away and continued to provide regular updates, all the way up until pickup. Even after we brought our puppy home, Rita has stayed in touch and continues to kindly receive updates and photos from us. I truly appreciate her care and professionalism throughout the process. I would highly recommend Rita to anyone looking for a responsible and caring breeder.

    We had an outstanding experience with Rita in our search for another shih tzu puppy! I appreciated how easy it was to communicate with Rita. She was very responsive during our search and even after we brought our “Alfie” home. She happily shared multiple photos and videos of him before we got him. We drove halfway to meet Rita to get Alfie. She even brought along his dad, Prince, so we got to meet him! Rita sent us off with a well-stocked “new puppy” tote that included essentials like a harness, leash, brush, blanket with his mom’s scent, toys, wet/dry food, treats, puppy pads, & baby photos of him - just to name a few. Rita’s breeding practices and excellent care she provided up until we got Alfie are reflected in his temperament and behavior once we brought him home. At Alfie’s first vet appointment, our vet also stated that “your breeder did an EXCELLENT job of de-worming” and was very impressed. We love our Alfie dearly and extremely grateful for breeders like Rita! She gets our highest recommendation!

    Rita created instant trust in this important stage of our doggy search. Just knowing that she had a positive breeder history and great feedback from previous clientele assured us that we were on the right, final path to ownership. We spoke with Rita on the phone and gained more knowledge before settling on the purchase. We met up with Rita about a week later to pick up our puppy (now named LuLu). Rita had a very thorough packet of information for us, as well as vet records, food, toys and blankets to get us through LuLu's 1st week away from the only family she knew up to that date. One other aspect that showed us we were dealing with a breeder who knew her calling was that she had both parents present as well. All of our questions were answered. Follow-up questions and contact with Rita continue. Rita is very, very responsive. She cares!

    Rita has been absolutely amazing throughout this whole process! She was responsive to all my questions about Max before pick up, sent pictures and updates until he was in our arms and she’s still responding to questions and any concerns afterwards! Max is just as playful as she promised and I can’t imagine my life without him. Highly recommend working with her if you’re looking for a pup to add to your family.

    Rita was quick to answer emails and answered any questions or concerns I had. Cruella (yes that is the name I gave her) is a bright eyed, happy puppy that loves people and going for walks.
