Q. & A. with Tina
Why did you start breeding?
I began breeding after finishing some of my AKC dogs in confirmation to continue some of the traits that were more desired to me.
What makes your program special?
I breed not only on physical appearance's of the animals, but also on temperaments.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our Chihuahua puppies include smooth and long coat varieties. Chinese Crested puppies include powderpuff and hairless coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Chihuahua puppies include merle, black, chocolate, red, black and white, blue merle, chocolate and tan, and black and tan. Chinese Crested puppies include sable, pink and slate, pink, palomino, black and white, black and tan, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
