Q. & A. with Kathleen

  • What makes your program special?

    Our dogs are bred for their beauty, health, intelligence and above all excellent merry temperaments. They make wonderful companions whether they are in the show ring or on your lap. Our dogs and puppies are raised in our home with children and other pets. They are never kenneled. All puppies are well socialized before going to their new homes.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
