Q. & A. with Treena
Why did you start breeding?
German Shepherds have been a part of our family since 1992. They are a wonderful breed and with my husband in the military and gone frequently it was wonderful to have protection.

We choose to stay small, breeding one litter at a time so we can provide the best love and attention that the mother and puppies need and deserve.What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have stock coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include sable, black and tan, black and silver, and black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
