Q. & A. with Ella
Why did you start breeding?
My muse was my first Rottweiler that I got. I rescued him from someone getting drafted from the military and I absolutely fell in love with him, the breed. He was everything I wanted in a dog but unfortunately he had a lot of medical issues. So my goal is produce healthy Rottweilers and better the breed in anyway I can.What makes your program special?
I don’t focus on just looks or aesthetics, I focus on health and longevity. I take my time with every single dog, puppy in my program pulling them to their greatest potential.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black and tan. 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.
