Q. & A. with Stephen
Why did you start breeding?
The fulfillment of seeing new puppies born, watching them grow, and helping shape them and train them in preparation for their new forever homes is a most rewarding experience.What makes your program special?
I give special attention to temperament. It starts with mellow and easy-going parents and continues with lots of attention and human contact for the puppies. I focus on breeding dogs that have good bird drive but yet can be calm in the family setting.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
