Q. & A. with Sharla

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Just sort of evolved into it after I retired. I’m now showing as well and absolutely adore every part, the breeding , the training, the showing
  • What makes your program special?

    I stand behind all my dogs and put everything I have into them all. I strive to raise healthy well-adjusted puppies who will be a pleasure to own and love. As a medical professional, I am continually researching and reading good sources for information on dogs and care of them. I work closely with my veterinarians as they are the experts.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
