Q. & A. with Leslie
Why did you start breeding?
I began breeding when I bought my female from Germany. I enjoyed watching pups do wonderful things for their families. With age I am slowing down and my lines will continue with the Chihuahua as my main breed these days. I still compete with the shepherds just not as muchWhat makes your program special?
I take pride in producing dogs with great temperaments that can work.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

I’m so grateful for the puppy I have received from Leslie. His name is now Apple Juice aka Aj. He’s such a friendly and happy boy. He’s always willing to try the new sports we’ve dabbled in and he’s already received so many titles

Leslie was wonderful to work with. I placed a deposit on one of her puppies a couple days after birth. She kept me updated weekly until she was ready. She even drove part way to meet me at 4pm on New Year’s Eve so that I could get home with her before dark. Pixel has an excellent personality. She’s very social. She likes to swim. I can’t say enough good things about Pixel & the service Leslie provided. Pixel is the perfect addition to our family & she is my sweetie!

I'm happy we found Leslie on Good Dog! She was responsive to our questions and requests for pictures, did a great job socializing and setting the groundwork for potty training. When I casually told her we were going to call our little guy Max she started using his name right away! He knew his name and a couple of key words when we picked him up. Thank you, Leslie, for putting in the time to make Max's transition to our home so easy.

+4I found Leslie here on Good Dog after my chihuahua (Marbles) passed away. My fiancé and I were distraught after she passed and we started to look for a new companion. This was my first experience inquiring about an available puppy as an adult, so I was not very knowledgable about the whole process. I saw the photos of Quartz (now Frankie) and I thought she was just the cutest puppy. I sent Leslie a message inquiring more information about Frankie. Leslie was very responsive and had great communication. She was always able to answer any questions I had about the process. Leslie is such a kind and understanding individual and she always made me feel heard with any questions/concerns I had. After we were generously chosen to be Frankie's new family, Leslie always gave us updates on her and where Frankie was at health wise. Leslie graciously helped me set up Frankie's flight to me and I picked Frankie up from the airport safe and sound. I am immensely grateful for Leslie's patience in this whole process. Frankie is such a wonderful puppy with great temperament and I can't wait to see how she grows up. My family and I are so so grateful to be Frankie's new family.

Leslie was fantastic to work with on getting our new puppy, Ghost. She sent videos, photos and updates often. Everything was clear and most importantly, she sent us a happy, healthy and loving puppy. Couldn’t recommend more!
