Q. & A. with Julie

Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding because friends kept telling me the way I raise and work with my dogs could help other people. Too many buyers spend a lot on dogs that only look good, with little training or foundation. Most breeders just breed, leave puppies outside or in kennels, and sell them. I wanted to do more and give pups a real start. I start training immediately with acclimation to sounds, touch,etc
What makes your program special?
What makes my program special is that I do more than breed for looks. I focus on intelligence, stability, structure, and true working ability, with daily handling, early training, and socialization. I carefully match each puppy to the right home. It is never just about a sale, and I will take back any puppy at any age if needed. For example in five years a family can no longer care for the dog.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have stock coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
