I'm Gen H., the breeder behind Little Dogs For You located in Vernon, WI. Our dogs live with us as part of the family. We love our puppies from birth until they leave our arms and snuggle into yours! We strive to produce wonderful dogs that bring others joy. We want our puppies to go to loving homes where they live happy lives.
Q. & A. with Gen
Why did you start breeding?
I had wanted to breed dogs for a very long time. I researched different breeds over the years. We fell in love with Coton de Tulears and decided they were the breed for us! They are a smart, fun wonderful companion breed. We love that they are not very common.
What makes your program special?
As a small breeder, our dogs & puppies get a lot of attention. This isn't always possible with large breeding kennels. It's important to us that our puppies go home well socialized and loved. We feed our dogs a special diet of quality kibble mixed with fresh food, pumpkin and supplements. We want our dogs happy & healthy!
Our adult Cotons have been DNA tested and cleared of genetic faults.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Cavaton puppies include sable, black and white, black and tan, and tri-color. Coton de Tulear puppies include black and white, tri-color, and white. Havapoo puppies include chocolate and white, fawn brindle, fawn sable, black and silver brindle, chocolate brindle, black and tan, and black and tan brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Roxy, mom
Havanese
About Roxy
Roxy is a chocolate, tan and white Havanese. She is a gentle, loving affectionate companion who is always eager to please. She is playful but also content to relax by our side. She is an intelligent, quick learner. She is an attentive mom to her puppies. Roxy is an all around wonderful representation of her breed.
Corby, dad
Coton de Tulear
About Corby
Corby is a tri-colored Coton de Tulear. We got lucky because while he did fade, as Cotons do, he kept a lot of his beautiful coloring. He is a very sweet happy-go-lucky guy who loves everyone and likes going with us everywhere. He is a smart boy and hands down was the easiest dog I have ever trained. (I have trained a lot of puppies!) From the feedback we have gotten, his offspring seem to also have inherited his ease of training as well as his super friendly disposition. He is the ultimate little buddy!
Figgy, mom
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
About Figgy
Figgy is a beautiful black and tan Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with an excellent disposition! She is a very, very mellow, laid-back gal who lives for the moments she gets to sit on your lap. We have gotten nothing but excellent feedback from our past puppy owners. We have even heard people say the puppy they got from her litter was the best dog they have ever had. (Of course that makes us feel good!) You are not going to find a sweeter more affectionate dog than Figgy!

Ghennel was so wonderful to work with. We are so pleased with our Cavaton Pearl. You can tell she worked with our puppy before bringing her home. Potty training and crate training has been going real well and it shows she really cared for our puppy! Thank you Ghennel!
