Q. & A. with Patricia
Why did you start breeding?
Our family has had so many wonderful dogs that have blessed our lives.....from German Shepherds and Dobermans to Chihuahuas...than we had our first Mini Aussie, Fiona, and we fell in love with this breed. Soon I was bitten with the "show bug" and started showing some very nice co-owned dogs. Raising and showing our dogs has brought a new joy to my life. I truly love each and every one of them and I work to provide a wonderful match and home with their new families. Thank you for entrusting us to raise your new family member!
What makes your program special?
Our puppies are raised in our home with the Puppy Culture early nurturing program.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include blue merle, red merle, red, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
