I'm Joni A., the breeder behind Magnolia Acres located in Caledonia, MI. We breed for health and conformation. We have the puppies in our house, and get them used to household noises, kids, adults, other dogs and start them on potty training outside before they go home. We offer a 1 year health guarantee and they go to the vet for a visit and 1st set of shots.
Q. & A. with Joni
Why did you start breeding?
I have always wanted to breed since I was a little girl. I absolutely love puppies and love the process of pregnancy and the birth of the puppies.
What makes your program special?
We socialize them around kids of many ages. I have 3 small grandchildren that come over once a week and we have teenagers in the house, too. We get them used to lots of noise and household noises.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies include tri-color and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
