I'm Linda G., the breeder behind Linde Bostons/Tomlin Boxers located in Cookville, TX. I have been breeding Boston Terriers for 20years and am dedicated to showing my dogs in the ring. I also breed a few litters of boxers a year. I have recently moved to the Northeast Texas area and hope to be able to produce more litters in the coming years.
Q. & A. with Linda
What makes your program special?
I have been breeding and showing Boston Terriers since 2005, and Boxers for 4 years. I currently have many residing Champions as well as many up and coming Champions that I show. I breed only about four-six litters a year, puppies are raised in my home with lots of love and attention. Those that do not go to show homes I offer as pets to approved homes.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Boston Terrier puppies are seal brindle and white. Boxer puppies include fawn and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
