Q. & A. with Jeanette
Why did you start breeding?
I have been breeding dogs since 1995. I started breeding Roddy’s and chocolate labs in California when relocating to Virginia I change focus on the small breed of Yorkshire terriers in 2015 to the present. I’m a small breeder and my dogs are my pets.What makes your program special?
I feel my breeding practices are based on my personal experience. I only breed once a year, and not until my females are two years of age and then they are retired at six. They live out their lives as my pets throughout retirement and focus on nutrition, health and providing the best pet possible in the best homes possible with the best loving families.
