Bendi Cardigans
Meet the breeder
I'm Wanda B., the breeder behind Bendi Cardigans located in Mount Vernon, MO. We breed for quality, not quantity. Our puppies are raised in our home with lots of love and family interaction. Good temperament and health are a must when we consider breeding a litter. We do health testing to make sure our puppies have a good start to a healthy life. It would be our pleasure to introduce your family to your next Cardigan!
Q. & A. with Wanda
Why did you start breeding?
We love Cardigans and want to preserve the integrity of the breed. We don't breed a lot of litters, and instead, we focus on making sure each litter is as healthy and well-socialized as possible. We truly love our puppies and know you will too!What makes your program special?
We breed for quality, not quantity! We work hard to find the best forever homes for all our puppies, and we love when families stay in contact with us. Photos and life updates are always encouraged. We are only a phone call, text, or email away if the forever home has any question or needs help.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
