Q. & A. with Barry
Why did you start breeding?
I have always been passionate about the well-being of animals. I wanted to put my passion to good use! It's been a joyful commitment, and it is a pleasure to live with, work with, and share with others these wonderful dogs.What makes your program special?

+8Working with Barry was an absolute pleasure. From answering our questions to making arrangements, arranging delivery and keeping us posted with photos and videos of our puppy, everything was handled completely smoothly and professionally. As first time dog owners this made our experience worry and anxiety free and distinctly memorable. Our puppy Lisa is absolutely gorgeous, delightfully playful, gentle tempered and is now the new center of our lives. Thank you, Barry!
