I'm Buffie G., the breeder behind Buffie Gonzales located in Lynden, WA. I produce top-quality pups that will continue to excel in their chosen field, whether that be showing, or as an active companion. My puppies are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive, and have wonderful temperaments. I raise all of my dogs with love in my home. I have high expectations for my puppies and make sure to place each one with an enriching and loving family that will match their temperament and personality.
Q. & A. with Buffie
Why did you start breeding?
My dogs are bred to produce healthy, sound, and versatile pups. My ultimate goal is to produce athletic and well-structured canines that can excel within various performance venues and have the ability to be the greatest family companions. As a breeder, I feel a sense of responsibility to prioritize the overall health and temperament of each of my puppies and to ensure that they are loved and well cared for before joining their forever homes.What makes your program special?
I am a professional handler of English Springer Spaniels and Labrador Retrievers. I do not breed my dogs unless they are fully healthy and genetically tested. I am dedicated to always having responsible policies when it comes to breeding, socializing, and training my pups. I work with passion, heart, and integrity, and I truly want what's best for the English Springer Spaniels and Labrador Retrievers line. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
