Meet the breeder

I'm Carmen M., the breeder behind Bourbon Barrel Ridge Doxies located in Parkersburg, WV. Our passion is to bring healthy and happy companions to people's lives who love the character and personality of this awesome breed. Our dogs are Our Family! We have an unwavering commitment to our customers and our puppies. Achieving a good match is our goal.

Q. & A. with Carmen

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My doxies were adopted to be part of our family. It wasn't until the pandemic that I realized the need and value to some of having a furry companion due to the isolation.
  • What makes your program special?

    We do not have a large amount of breeding dogs that we rehome at retirement age. Our dogs will stay with us and live out their years in their comfortable and familiar homes. This gives each and every dog/puppy individual and personal attention and care. My care team is my family of 5, who live here on our farm.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have longhaired coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include cream and black and cream. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    The pups are doing well… yes I said pups we got two, guess you could say we are a gluten for punishment. We find ourselves getting more and more adapted to our additions. They are learning their territory and now beginning to be lead on a leash. Future news as we develop.
