Meet the breeder

I'm Christine C., the breeder behind Cece's Maltipoos located in Suffield, CT. At the heart of my program is a commitment to raising healthy, well-rounded puppies with exceptional temperaments. All of my parent dogs are extremely well mannered, have great temperaments and undergo genetic health testing. My puppies are raised in a nurturing home environment with extensive early socialization and enrichment to help them develop into confident, affectionate, and well-adjusted companions.

Q. & A. with Christine

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Hi! I have always wanted to establish my own breeding program. It wasn't until I purchased my first maltipoo, Daisy, that I quickly fell in love with the breed. Her sweet nature, gentle soul and playful personality has brought so much joy to our home. As my children have grown, I felt this was a natural progression for me. It’s been so fulfilling connecting families with their furever friends!

  • What makes your program special?

    All of my parent dogs are extremely well mannered, have great temperaments and undergo genetic health testing. I believe in nurturing healthy relationships with both my dogs and their future families, ensuring that every puppy receives the love, care, and attention needed for a fulfilling life. All my dogs live in my home and are part of our family!

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

    Our puppies include apricot, red, and champagne. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

  • Eye Examination (rDVM, not registered with OFA)

    Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (rDVM, not registered with OFA)

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • Patellar Luxation

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • DNA Coat/Trait Panel, Full Embark Panel, PRA, Rod-Cone Degeneration (PRA-prcd), DNA Disease Panel

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
