I'm Meredith G., the breeder behind Guylyne located in Sacramento County, CA. My focus is on maintaining the Lowchen standard by raising structurally sound pups with excellent temperaments and great health. The health and quality of my puppies are very important to me, and I make all of my breeding decisions accordingly. I prioritize health, temperament, structure, and conformation to the standard, as well as a variety of other factors. It is always my goal to produce show-quality dogs, and all of my puppies make wonderful companions.
Q. & A. with Meredith
Why did you start breeding?
Because of my dedication to both the physical and mental health of these incredible dogs, I breed to pass these traits down to future generations. I hope to help families find their puppies from responsible and ethical sources to build a better and safer world for our dogs.
What makes your program special?
I am an experienced breeder, and I take my role seriously. I keep a variety of factors in mind when choosing dogs to breed, including health, temperament, pedigree, and complementary traits, so that puppies can inherit the best of both parents.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
