Q. & A. with Rebecca
Why did you start breeding?
Yakutian Laikas are an incredible breed, and I decided to start my breeding program in order to preserve the wonderful qualities I found in my dogs. They excel both in and out of the show ring. I am dedicated to improving my lines with each generation so that the breed will continue to thrive for a long time to come. It's an amazing feeling knowing that I made a positive contribution to these dogs and the families who love them!
What makes your program special?
I hold myself to the highest standard when it comes to my dogs and my policies. Just “good” isn’t good enough. I am thorough in health testing and caring for my dogs, and I make sure each puppy gets the proper group and individual care that it needs to thrive. My goal is to ensure that every dog that comes from my program is set up to live a happy and healthy life and is prepared for its future role when it leaves my care. It would be my pleasure to introduce your family to your next forever companion!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
