I'm Natalie K., the breeder behind Kruse Boxers located in Vero Beach, FL. All of our dogs are loved as family members. We cherish our puppies from birth up until they leave our arms to snuggle into yours! When we got our first dog, we were instantly in love. Since then, we’ve made it our mission to bring happy, healthy puppies into the lives of other families!
Q. & A. with Natalie
Why did you start breeding?
I bought my female as a pup and just knew I wanted to breed her one day and then I had friends who also owned multiple Boxers and it was just an easy decision and I have never regretted doing it. I enjoyed raising the pups and watching them grow and then finding them their forever homes with such wonderful people. My heart was happy knowing they would be so loved.
What makes your program special?
My heart is in it. I love each of these pups like their my own and I want nothing, but the best, most loving homes for each one of them. I enjoy every second I get to spend with these beautiful babies.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include fawn and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
