Q. & A. with Mark
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding through my fascination with genetics, nature vs. nurture, nutrition, and how they shape a dog. Most of all, I love matching good dogs with loving homes and seeing how they enrich each other's lives. A dog can make even the hardest day better.What makes your program special?
Golden Maxim Kennels reflects our philosophy: treat others as we want to be treated. We strive to do right by our dogs and families. Nutrition is a priority, including raw grass-fed beef, liver, tripe and organ meats, along with quality whole-food kibble. Our goal is to give every puppy a strong foundation for a healthy, happy life.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
