Q. & A. with Amanda
Why did you start breeding?
Seeing each of my puppies' families experience the same level of joy that my dogs bring me is an amazing experience! I hope to help families find their puppies from responsible and ethical sources to help build a better and safer world for our dogs.
What makes your program special?
The quality of my puppies reflects the conscious decisions I make throughout every part of the breeding process. From researching breeding pairs, conducting health testing, to purposefully raising each pup, my goal is to help preserve this historic breed.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
