Q. & A. with Elena

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I started breeding with my Pomeranians. After acquiring my BMDs and having such success in confirmation (one bronze, one grand champion, one champion), we embarked on planning a breeding program.
  • What makes your program special?

    I only mate my females with strong males who are themselves champions and of excellent health and temperament. This litter was Sired by a stud from a breeder who has been raising, breeding, and showing BMDs for decades. She is a longstanding and senior conformation judge.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
