Q. & A. with Marlina
Why did you start breeding?
This program provides service dogs and pets. My love for these dogs has inspired me to share their amazing breeds with the world in a responsible way while also giving back to veterans and the disabled community.What makes your program special?
I am breeding for health and temperament to puppies from our litters to become service dogs for the veterans and non veterans. Dogs have always been a passion of mine and I have wanted to help give back and contribute like this since I was in high school. The service dog program is for multipurpose service dogs and specialty tasks.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and rust, fawn (isabella) and rust, and red and rust. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
