I'm Ms Jay F., the breeder behind Fretwell's Fabulous Griffons located in Pensacola, FL. I offer a two-year health guarantee, lifetime support in the form of information related to these precious Griffon Bruxellois, & Petit Brabancon. Support extends to taking back a dog/puppy in the event of an emergency whereby you are not able to care for the dog anymore. My pups are mostly sold for pet only homes. Includes vaccinations, deworming, a vet check, puppy starter kit, food & treats, vet records, AKC registration, initial potty training, toys, basic obedience & manners, and registration. You’ll also get free access to Good Dog’s training program ($235 value), a 10% lifetime discount on insurance, and built-in payment protection.
Q. & A. with Ms Jay
Why did you start breeding?
I just love this breed so much! They are so funny and will own you in a minute! As you've heard my dogs own the house! I just pay the bills and buy treats! I also enjoy the interaction of pregnancy, birth, to growing up. I currently have Griffon Bruxellois, Griffon Belge and some of the puppies are Petit Brabançon. I do my best to raise sound pups as close to standards as possible. Thanks.What makes your program special?
I personally take care of the puppies and give each one of them personal attention through socialization and learning. They are trained to be desensitized though various noises such as dishwasher, music, laundry, etc. They get really wound when my grandson comes to play!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, belge, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Getting a puppy from Ms Jay
Ms Jay has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.
Ms Jay partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 10 weeks old.
"I try to guide owners to the right pup. Some pet parents what feisty, some want calm. It just depends on the puppy. "
Price
"Puppy price includes 2 yr guarantee, AKC registration prepaid (on spay/neuter), vaccinations, deworming, beginning potty training, and socialization. Retirees have vaccines, deworming, Rabies only. I ask for a $500.00 non-refundable deposit; however, that amount is credited from the balance. I consider the deposit a service fee thus if you decide the pup is not for you, you will not receive a refund. If there is a reason you cannot pick your pup up on time, then a boarding fee will be included in final costs. That rate is $15 a day, unless previously arranged with me. Thanks."
Contract & health guarantee
Ms Jay may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Ms Jay offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Ms Jay directly.

Program update on 04 Mar •…I'm being entertained this morning! I'm drinking my coffee watching these babies, and they're so funny. There's no less than six lamb treats on the floor, yet they only want what the other has! Silly little babies! I bought lamb treats for them and for the price, not bad. The pizzles are too hard right now for their little teeth.

Program update on 13 Feb •…These babies were wild eyed bushy tailed this morning! They were ready to be up and playing at 5 am! Time for their treat after breakfast and then I'm sure they'll nap for a bit. Such pure unconditional love! Nothing better! ❤️
Ms Jay F.
Program update on 12 Feb •…So I ran into someone who wanted to come visit the puppies to decide which one they want. I'm sorry, I don't allow it, because it is unsafe for my family as well as my pups. If there is anything introduced to my pups then it could harm or kill them. I'm sorry, I'm not going to chance that. However, I will do video meetings, photos, etc., and you're always welcome to call my vet of 18 years. Thanks for understanding!

+5Ms Jay is a very knowledgeable, loving, caring breeder. She has made this process so easy. I adopted a 3 yo brussels that is the most adorable sensitive and lovable dog ever. He has adjusted quickly and made himself at home with us. Ms Jay has answered questions I've had about him. I have changed his name to Sprout since his is a live Brussels sprout. I would recommend her and one of her puppies if you want someone you can trust for a safe transaction.

+5The communication we received with Fretwell's Fabulous Griffons was truly remarkable. Our little Sassy (Sassafras) was even more adorable in person than she was on the Good Dog website.
