Q. & A. with Mary

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I grew up with bouviers! They are just the best breed in my opinion. I raised my son with one. I had a time I didn't have a bouv and didn't like it at all. So now I have 3 of the best dogs ever!
  • What makes your program special?

    I am very hands on, your puppy comes very socialized. Earl on they know who we are and stimulated with noise and touch. As soon as they are able to they are out doing chores with me! Groomed weekly for pictures to keep you updated as they grow! Our grandkids love toget out and make sure the puppies are very well loved and used to everything kids do!
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
