Q. & A. with Laura

  • Why did you start breeding?

    First thing I have always had a dog. I love them, my first dog was a Maltese. That was 1984 and I had two. Frosty and Chrystal and they were the first one I have ever breed. I remember saying Chrystal Grandma was on tbe cover at the book on Maltese. I have always been very small. I use to breed a couple other breeds but I only breed the beautiful maltese

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?
