Q. & A. with Catherine
Why did you start breeding?
The dream lived quietly within me for 11 years. When my father passed away, January 2000, it seemed that time was running out for too many of those who had special plans for later years. I decided to work to make the dream a reality, and to make it happen "now."What makes your program special?
A Harper Haven dog is a healthy and happy companion for you and your family. Our dogs are guaranteed to be of sound structure and temperament and are between 9-16 lbs, per the USA AKC standard.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
