Q. & A. with Stephanie
Why did you start breeding?
I wished to breed my French Bulldog and met up with a breeder who came highly recommended. She and I became friends and, with her as my mentor, I decided to try becoming a breeder myself as it was something that I had wished to do since becoming a CVT.
What makes your program special?
Our puppies are raised in our home and get to experience other animals and people so they are very socialized at a young age. My husband and I both care very much for our animals and give each one the love and safe keeping they deserve.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

About Muppet
Muppet is a friendly, good natured Furry Frenchie. She is small and compact in size, topping out at 22 lbs, with a nice big head. Being a visual furry, her fur is super soft and sheds much less than a regular Frenchie. She’s a very intelligent dog that loves to cuddle and gets along great with other dogs and cats too.

Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia (rDVM, not registered)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Eye Examination (rDVM, not registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Cardiac Evaluation (rDVM, not registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Patellar Luxation
Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
DNA Disease Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
