Q. & A. with Fabi and Zak
Why did you start breeding?
My passion for dogs and their well-being led me to responsible breeding. I wanted to contribute positively to the breed by raising puppies in a loving home environment, focusing on proper care, early socialization, and placing them in committed, lifelong homes.What makes your program special?
My program is small and intentional, allowing me to give each dog individual attention, love, and care.

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