Huckleberry Pups
Meet the breeder
I'm Laura G., the breeder behind Huckleberry Pups located in Lakebay, WA. We are a very small scale operation, which allows us to give more attention to our dogs and their puppies. All of our dogs have been genetically tested, and we pay close attention to the health and characteristics of any dogs in our program. We also make sure to spend time training and enjoying any puppies that are born into our home. We do it because we love it, and we enjoy the families that we work with.
