Meet the breeder

Q. & A. with Matthew

  • What makes your program special?

    All our females have a calm temperament as well. Puppies are raised and loved by three kids from the day they’re born so they should be well acclimated to children. Because litters are raised in our house, they get to hear all the usual sights, sounds and smells of a home. We think it adds to their social bonding with humans to raise them this way rather than in a separate area.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Matthew was so good at getting back to me right away when I reached out to him. He had all of Maisy’s records ready to go in a folder when we got to his house to pick her up. We had a very pleasant experience.
