Q. & A. with Cara
Why did you start breeding?

Several years later that grew into owning and breeding several champions competing in various levels of ASCA, AKC, and International events.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
