Q. & A. with Kelley
Why did you start breeding?
My personal love and passion for the breed led me to pursue breeding the best, well rounded pups.What makes your program special?
We only breed a small number of litters per year so we can fully focus our time and energies into producing the best pups possibleWhat are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
