Q. & A. with Gina
Why did you start breeding?
One of my mentors suggested conformation and we tried it and liked it. From there, she suggested breeding and we feel in love with raising puppies too!What makes your program special?
I feel you get out of a puppy what you put into them. And, for the time I have them, I give them my all!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
