Q. & A. with Karen
Why did you start breeding?
Responsible, ethical breeders play an important role in the future of the dog ecosystem. We are guardians for future dogs. I strive to breed quality puppies and preserve the line of these incredible companions. I am very dedicated to what I do and what I am trying to achieve as a breeder. I work with passion, heart, and integrity, and I truly want what's best for all my dogs and the humans who love them!What makes your program special?
In my program, beauty is a given, but producing healthy, loving, and versatile puppies is what I strive for! My puppies are raised and socialized in my home. I put a lot of care into socializing my puppies so they can transition easily into their new lives with their forever families. In the puppies I produce, good health and temperament are essential, but cuteness and love is guaranteed!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include blenheim, ruby, black and tan, and tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
