Q. & A. with Marsha
Why did you start breeding?
A few years ago, my life changed when I was diagnosed with a chronic condition. During that time, a dear friend introduced me to the incredible healing power of therapy dogs. Their companionship brought comfort, calm, and joy into some of my hardest days. Soon after, I was blessed with my own emotional support dog—and that experience truly transformed me.
What makes your program special?
I wanted to create a program focused not just on producing adorable pets, but on raising loving companions—dogs with gentle temperaments and intuitive hearts who can make a real difference in someone’s life. My breeding program is devoted to individuals and families who don’t just want a pet, but who need a loyal friend, a calming presence, or an emotional support partner.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Maltese puppies are white. Maltipoo puppies are apricot. Morkie puppies include piebald, black and tan, and white. Yorkshire Terrier puppies include parti and black and gold. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Suki
Meet Suki, our beautiful Korean Maltese import! ✨ Her delightful temperament and irresistible cuteness make her truly special. Suki has a sweet, loving nature that shines through in everything she does—whether she’s snuggling close or happily prancing around the house.
Her unique facial features and refined structure are trademarks of the Korean Maltese, a line known for its elegance and charm. These traits make her genes highly sought after, and she passes along both beauty and personality to her puppies.
Suki is the perfect combination of grace, sweetness, and charm—a one-of-a-kind girl who continues to win hearts everywhere she goes. 💕

About Cognac
Our proud sire is a stunning piebald Yorkie with a gorgeous, eye-catching coat that sets him apart. Imported from Germany, he carries excellent lines and a refined look, bringing both beauty and distinction to his puppies. His unique coloring, silky fur, and confident stance make him a true showstopper.
Beyond his looks, he passes down a wonderful temperament—loving, intelligent, and full of charm. His puppies inherit not only his striking coat but also his sweet personality, making them exceptional companions.

Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
