Q. & A. with Rhonda

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Back in 1988 I fell in love with the first chocolate cocker spaniel I had ever seen. Ever since then when I bred a litter. I always kept a daughter. Here we are eight generations later.
  • What makes your program special?

    I strive to improve my line. I always look for well adjusted and friendly temperments from the sires for my girls. Along with being correct in conformation with Champion bloodlines. OFA Cert & Eye Cert. DNA family genetics, Championship bloodlines. I specifically breed for Chocolate (Brown), Chocolate & Tan, Black, Black & Tan. I do not stand any studs for breeding. But, if you need a referral to a stud. I can help you with that.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and tan, brown and tan, brown, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
