Q. & A. with Kristi
Why did you start breeding?
Seven years ago I drove to Edmonton Alberta Canada to pick up my puppy, Cruise. It was then that I realized I want to show him. It didn't take long for me to decide I wanted to be a preservation breeder.What makes your program special?
Every breeding is carefully planned years in advance. Health clearances are paramount. We're proud of our clearances, including AggieBelle's excellent hips. All clearances are available on OFA. You will see our dogs are CHIC certified meaning they have met all health tests that are required. Nothing's been overlooked. Socializing is as important; we enjoy preparing our puppies for their new homes.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
