Q. & A. with Lilian

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have been around animals most of my life and fell in love with the unique beauty of Havana Silk Dog. I am a preservationist breeder striving to maintain and improve upon the unique qualities the breed has to offer. It has been an absolute joy of a journey, and I am so happy to be able to share these wonderful dogs with other loving families and individuals.

  • What makes your program special?

    The puppies in my program begin socialization early. I cater to the needs of my puppies and foresee their potential as intelligent and fast learners. I take time to teach manners so they have a better chance at an easy transition into their new homes. I am very dedicated to what I do. I work with passion, heart, and integrity, and I truly want what's best for my dogs and breeding line.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include gold sable, gold, fawn, cream, black and tan, black, and red sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
