Meet the breeder

Q. & A. with Cynthia

  • What makes your program special?

    I continue to learn and put significant time into providing the best care for the mom and the pups.

    They live in my home.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (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.
