Q. & A. with Kelly
Why did you start breeding?
My mom started raising Poodle puppies when I was in high school and I've enjoyed raising puppies myself ever since then.
What makes your program special?
I play with the puppies daily. They are started on going outside with the adults at 5 weeks and puppy pads are inside. Puppies are allowed to mingle with all of my adult dogs as soon as they're able to crawl out of their box. They're exposed to cats, farm animals and two Great Pyrenees siblings. My puppies love playing outside by the time they go to their new homes.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Cavatzu puppies include brindle and white and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
