Q. & A. with Berna
What makes your program special?
All of our dogs are our family. When we retire a dog they are not rehomed, they will live out their days with us. Puppies come back for in home boarding often as they too are still our extended family. We have a true passion for animals and my children play a huge part in the process. It is a gift to be able to spread the love of the a healthy Cavalier at reasonable costs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include blenheim, ruby, tri-color, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
