Q. & A. with Ginger
Why did you start breeding?
my sister has been breeding dogs for awhile, we had a little gold and white female shihtzu Addison. She is the sweetest most loving lil girl. We ended up buying a small black reddish brown and white male from my
sister. he is a great little guy, Quill is so loving and calm. I fell in love with my Shih tzu's. I wanted to breed so that way i can share with your family how awesome they are. They are truly the best. Their demeanor is amazing. My 5yo granddaughters play with them and they are so docile and loving.
What makes your program special?
Our 2nd litterwill be arriving in December. We plan on breeding once a year for 2 to 3 yrs. Then my female will be spayed. My Male will stay intact.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black gold and white and gold and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

We got our sweet pup, Lucy, through Ginger on Good Dog, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about both the experience and our new family member! From the very beginning, Ginger was so kind, responsive, and helpful. She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the process, and it was clear how much she truly loves and cares for her dogs.
Lucy has been an absolute blessing for our family. She has the sweetest, most loving personality and instantly bonded with our 3-year-old. The two of them are inseparable — whether they're playing in the yard, snuggling during story time, or going on little adventures together. Lucy is playful, gentle, and endlessly affectionate. She’s everything we could’ve hoped for in a family dog and more.
I would highly recommend Ginger to anyone looking for a well-loved, well-cared-for pup. You can tell her dogs are raised with so much love and attention. We’re so grateful to have found her and even more grateful for Lucy, our new best friend.
