Meet the breeder

I'm Nitoria I., the breeder behind Lavender Blue Exotic Crew located in Olive Branch, MS.

Q. & A. with Nitoria

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I owned my first Shih Tzu named Reese’s at 13. From there my love grew for the breed! I then got my sweet baby Sugar shortly after Reese’s passed. I met a friend in 2021 who’s been breeding for 13yrs and had the opportunity to spend 3 years learning about the labor, health testing, and dogs overall. I connected with other breeders for further knowledge and decided to start my own program!

  • What makes your program special?

    We offer a range of colors but most importantly we ensure our puppies are beyond socialized, trained, and healthy for our forever families.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include lilac, chocolate, liver, and blue. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
