Q. & A. with Charmain
Why did you start breeding?
Our love for Labradors found us wanting to share the amazing family dogs with others, so we began breeding in 2004. In 2016, we added Dalmatians to our family and fell in love with their fun-loving personalities and adventurous stamina, similar to Labradors. Health testing is critical and doing so allows us to share puppies that are healthy and happy with others.What makes your program special?
We raise our puppies in our home full of love and cuddles. They are socialized with our children, dogs, and farm animals. We believe in health tested parents & we are part of AKC Bred with Heart program. All ECMO Farm puppies are raised using Puppy Culture protocols to grow confident, healthy, well-rounded companions for families to enjoy for years to come.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Dalmatian puppies include white and liver brown and white and black. Labrador Retriever puppies include black and yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Charmain was very responsive and easy to work with. Everything went smoothly and I finally got my dream dog. I had a dalmatian when I was a little girl, a gift from my late Aunt. So I like to think my pup is a little connections I have of her.

We are so in love with our new puppy! Charmain was very responsive, kept us updated about our puppy’s development (including photos and videos) and answered all of our questions! Our new puppy was set up for success with plenty of socializing, age appropriate interactions, information about her parents health history, as well as her first vet appointment and new puppy goodie bag. This is our third lab and it was by far the best experience we have had!

My wife and I waited 2 years to get another Dalmatian because we knew we would be relocating. We responded to Facebook ads, rescues and even local shelters. Nothing worked out. I saw the Gooddogs ad and responded. They put me in touch with Charmain. She had a liver male which is what we were looking for. Charmain sent photos of “Camaro”. She answered all of our questions absent us a video she took just for us. We purchased “Camaro”, now Simon. Everything went as she had explained. Simon is our 4th Dalmatian, and he is the best puppy we have ever had.

Working with Charmain was great! My new puppy “Lexie” is so smart and is so good with my older dog. I would recommend buying a puppy from Charmain to anyone! She’s sweet and very loving 🥰 Theresa A.

+4Charmaine was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. She answered all of our questions and addressed every concern we had before bringing our pup home. Throughout the process, she stayed in touch, offered Facetime sessions with the puppies and sent us lots of photos and updates of the entire litter as they grew. She truly made everything easy to understand and stress free. Our sweet girl, Andarna Storm (aka Peppermint Patty), is a super smart pup and the perfect addition to our family. We highly recommend Charmaine (ECMO Farm Dalmations), and will definitely go through her again when it's time for our next little one!

Charmain was so responsive and knowledgeable! She really cares about the pups she sends home and I am so lucky to have found such an incredible breeder. My pup came home in perfect condition and you can tell he was socialized and treated very well during his time with Charmain.
