Q. & A. with Chelsea
Why did you start breeding?
I originally bred working belgian malinois. I have always loved tervurens and got my first one imported from czech republic. Working with him I started loving the breed more and more. The only issue I was running into was finding the perfect female for my breeding program. It took me years to finally find the perfect one. I was having no luck finding anything In the US that I personally loved like I love my czech import. Finally a female cameup available in France and loved her bloodlines and shes exactly like my male so I brought her over to begin my program and produce some of the best working tervurens in the United States.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are mahogany and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
