Q. & A. with Vanessa
Why did you start breeding?
I fell in love with the breed several years ago and got a few quality dogs to help better the breed.
What makes your program special?
I take great pride in my puppies and anyone that buys a puppy becomes family. All puppies come with age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, dewormed and 30 days health insurance.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
