I'm Annabeth G., the breeder behind Cardigan Cottage located in Adrian, MO. We do our best to breed with total care by primarily focusing on raising healthy, affectionate, and loyal companions. As a result of our efforts, we’re positive our puppies will become perfect family members and add just as much joy to your life as they have ours!
Q. & A. with Annabeth
Why did you start breeding?
I've always been wanting to take on the workload of caring or reering up dogs my whole life, and after my daughter was born this seemed to be the most (stay at home mom) friendly way of doing it. Plus I enjoy sharing the joy that this breed provides in all forms.
What makes your program special?
We treat and care for each puppy as we do with our adults, just as you would when you bring them to your home. We ensure they are getting proper nutrition and constant check-ups till they get to the playful stage. Then it's play, eat, pick up potty accidents (usual in a generous sized pen or in a secured space in the building) and socalizing with tons of pets and snuggles.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red and white and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
