I'm the breeder behind Cuddable Pups located in Lincolnton, NC. At Cuddable Pups, we aim to provide healthy and well-socialized puppies! We have four children and are home most days all day. We want the families of our puppies to trust that the first weeks of their new puppy's life were spent with great love and care! We love our dogs and want nothing more than to see each and every one of our puppies shine!
Q. & A. with Makia
Why did you start breeding?
Breeding was brought to our attention by dear friends. After much consideration and research, we decided we wanted to give others the chance to live life with a beloved Shihpoo or Maltipoo by providing healthy and happy puppies!
What makes your program special?
Our program is a family adventure! We homeschool our four children and with breeding, we can not only provide valuable life lessons for our children but also provide much love and attention to our pets and their puppies! In our program, good health and temperament are essential, cuteness is guaranteed, and lots of love is always included!
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Shihpoo puppies are mini size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
