Q. & A. with Kathryn
Why did you start breeding?
Whippets are an incredible breed, and I decided to start my breeding program in order to preserve the wonderful qualities I found in my dogs. I strive to improve my lines with each generation so that the breed will continue to thrive for a long time to come. I have been very fortunate to work with an incredible mentor along the way!
What makes your program special?
When I bring a life into the world, I make sure it gets the best start possible. This includes proper health care and socialization for each puppy, but it starts even earlier than birth. I set my puppies up for success by carefully selecting the parents of each litter, keeping in mind factors such as health, temperament, ability, and conformation. My goal is to choose parents whose genes will bring out the best qualities in each other and produce well-balanced puppies.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
