Q. & A. with Lisa
Why did you start breeding?
I started my breeding program out of pure love of the breed! They have proven to be the greatest companions in my own life and I'm so grateful that I get to do my part to preserve these wonderful dogs and responsibly share them with the world.What makes your program special?
I understand the importance of a healthy pup. It's completely essential for the dog's future that they receive the correct care during the first weeks of their little lives. My style for breeding dogs is to supply healthy and loved puppies!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
