Q. & A. with Tiffany
Why did you start breeding?
I've always been an animal lover and breed advocate. Having been introduced to dog sports at a fairly young age, Liberty Am Staffs was established in 2008 and I produced my first home bred litter in 2012. The rest is pretty much history.What makes your program special?
While sports fuel the passion, our dogs are loved and kept as family members first and foremost. We're passionate about preserving the versatility and integrity of this breed and strive to produce well-adjusted, confident Am Staffs to share with other enthusiasts, breeders and pet homes alike. Our pups are raised indoors alongside the family and receive only the very best care and preparationWhere do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
