Why did you start breeding?
We love this breed! Our dogs have brought us so much love and happiness that we decided to start our own responsible breeding program by producing the highest quality dogs and providing them a wonderful life with just as amazing families!What makes your program special?
We focus on breeding dogs that have enough working drive to keep up with our lifestyle, but also have amazing temperaments and can quickly adapt to a calm family setting. We work hard so our puppies can leave our home with confidence, ready to take on the world with their new family!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
