Q. & A. with Gina
Why did you start breeding?
I got my first show dog in 1996 and that’s when I wanted to breed a litter.What makes your program special?
I’m very hands-on with early neurological stimulation for the pups. I want you to know that if you get a puppy from me it’s a solid well-bred dog.What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our Chihuahua puppies include smooth and long coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
