Q. & A. with Beth
Why did you start breeding?
I fell in love with breeding through my dogs and dog sports. Seeing their breed-specific personalities, intelligence, and drive up close inspired me to raise puppies with care, love, and purpose - helping each one become a happy, confident companion and a dog who thrives in sport and life.What makes your program special?
We focus on raising puppies with excellent temperaments through early socialization, enrichment, and positive reinforcement training. Being active in dog sports like scent work, obedience, and conformation helps us nurture confident, well-adjusted dogs ready for family life or performance. Our puppies are set up for life-long success.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red tri-color, black tri, red merle, and blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
