Draco Papillons
Meet the breeder
I'm Anita W., the breeder behind Draco Papillons located in North Carolina. I show and breed Papillons. I had the number one Papillon for 2010 and he is the top producing Papillon alive today. I carefully choose the sire and dam in order to produce the best quality possible. I do everything to ensure the puppies have everything they need to develop into healthy and happy dogs.
Q. & A. with Anita
Why did you start breeding?
I have been showing dogs since I was 8 years old, so it only felt natural to turn to breeding.What makes your program special?
I am willing to mentor those looking to start out showing Papillons. I only have one or two litters a year and am dedicated to extensively health testing of all my dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
