Q. & A. with Linda
Why did you start breeding?
It started with American Bulldogs in 1996. I was mentored by the Founding Father of the breed John D. Johnson. He taught me a lot and ignited my passion.What makes your program special?
My dogs are house raised family companions. They are handled and loved daily. I pride myself on being an ethical breeder with an emphasis on following the breed standard. Any dog I select in my breeding program must be fully health tested, temperamentally correct, and have proven themselves to be worthy in multi venues.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
