Q. & A. with Brandon
Why did you start breeding?
The passion I have for the breed and having it my personal pet for over 15 years. My mother has also been breeding for over 15 years.
What makes your program special?
What separates us from other programs is the amount of hands on love, affection, & attention that goes into each & every pup. For us it's important to not only ensure the pups are loved & fundamentally sound before going but making sure the mothers and fathers are happy health & loved. This process is so much deeper than a puppy. Love is rooted into our dogs far before they open their eyes.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies include smooth and long coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, chocolate, cream, fawn, red, black sabled fawn, black sabled silver, blue, blue brindled fawn, blue fawn, chocolate blue, chocolate brindled fawn, chocolate sabled fawn, fawn brindled black, gold, silver, white, blue and tan, blue and white, chocolate and tan, blue merle, fawn and white, black and silver, black and red, gold and white, cream and white, red and white, silver and white, black and tan, chocolate and white, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

My name is Linda and I have purchased 4 chihuahua puppies from Brandon. I am in the process of buying 1 or 2 more. His puppies are amazing. He is very helpful in getting you your perfect puppy. He has answered all my questions and helps you through the process.
I have only good things to say about his puppies. He will send you pictures all the time. I am so lucky I found him. I have an amazing family of chihuahuas because of him.
Thanks Brandon!!!

Brandon was so kind and was great at communication throughout the whole process. He and Justine went above and beyond to make the experience a pleasant one! they even send your baby off with a bag full of toys, blanket, and food. I love my girl so much, so thank you for bringing this little bundle of love into the world! Much love :) <3
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
