Q. & A. with Alyson
Why did you start breeding?
I’m getting Kanga I knew in my mind I wanted to learn enough about the breed and training dogs to help her have a litter. It’s been such an exciting and fulfilling experience for me and my family. We are hopeful to help our pups find the best homes.What makes your program special?
We treat all our pups as family the entire time they are in our home. They are socialized from the start and are given all the love and best health care we can offer.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black rust and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
