Q. & A. with Laurel
Why did you start breeding?
It is important to me that I not only continue my own phenomenal bloodlines but that I am improving this awesome breed with each litter and ensuring the well-being of these dogs for generations more to come!What makes your program special?
I am a professional handler of Dobermans. I do not breed my dogs unless they are fully healthy both physically and genetically. I am dedicated to always having responsible policies when it comes to breeding, training, and rehoming my pups. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
