Q. & A. with Michael

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My career started at age 10 grooming Standard Poodle puppies. Raised my first puppies when I was 12. This led to being self-employed at age 19 with an all-breed grooming shop...and bred Std Poodles Canine and grooming competitions offered me the first 15 years of my carreer. The next 45 years led me through just about every part of dog breeding and training communities with my Newfoundlands.
  • What makes your program special?

    My photos and website show HEALTHY, LOVED and ATTENTION FILLED puppies. I spare no expense in the care and raising of my puppies. Take a look at the "puppy nursery" page of my website to see how my puppies and parents are cared for. Complete with professional lab microscopes and ultrasound machine.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include white and black, black, and brown. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

“How We Match You With Your Puppy We want the transition from our home to yours to be as seamless as possible. To keep our families informed and ensure every puppy finds the right environment, we follow a structured selection process. The Selection Timeline Choosing usually takes place when the puppies are between 4 and 5 weeks old. We do this so that our other families have clarity and can begin preparing for their specific new addition. How to Choose We offer three flexible ways to pick your new best friend: In-Person Visits: Meet the litter by appointment and see the personalities firsthand. Virtual Selection: For those further away, we schedule video calls to "meet" the pups live. Expert Matching: Many families share their lifestyle, activity level, and home environment with us, allowing us to recommend the puppy we believe is the best fit for your specific household.”
