Meet the breeder

I'm Megan D., the breeder behind Chiaroscuro Kennel located in Aurora, CO.

Q. & A. with Megan

  • What makes your program special?

    All puppies are raised with puppy culture protocol, raised in my home and get to experience cats, dogs do other breeds, and humans of all ages. Puppies go home with tails docked and dew claws removed. Grooming starts from 3 weeks old, and even before that they are desensitized to the vibrations and sounds of clippers as well as nail trims.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are cream. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
