Meet the breeder
I'm Samantha M., the breeder behind Choreo Canines located in Severn, MD. Great dogs are a result of both nurture and nature. We start with beautiful, sound, proven parents and raise the puppies with an emphasis on socialization and training to give them the best start at life. Our dogs would be great in active pet, and sport homes.
Q. & A. with Samantha
Why did you start breeding?
Coaster is my first Pumi, and she has exceeded my expectations in every way. She earned her Grand Champion Title, Rally Championship Title, Utility Dog Excellent Title, and 78 Obedience Trial Champion Points (and counting) all by the age of two. She has done several acting jobs, performing in front of live audiences and in commercials and handled it all in stride.What makes your program special?
Integrating dogs into our lives is our main priority. We know what it takes from both owners and dogs to have a companion that can navigate every day life, dog-friendly adventures, and high level competition with ease. Our dogs are thoroughly socialized and introduced to training early to help them excel in their new homes.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include white, silver gray, gray, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
