Q. & A. with Monica
Why did you start breeding?
In 2006 we adopted our first Shih Tzu, Baxter, and Haley came along shortly after. Welcoming these two into our family brought about the idea that we wanted to share the same joy with other families, that these little ones have given to ours! This has become our families passion and that's what Maple Lane Pups is all about!What makes your program special?
Each of our puppy parents has been carefully selected to help produce quality purebred Shih Tzu puppies delivered to your family from ours. If you are looking for a fluffy little best friend who will: snuggle up on the couch with you, give lots of kisses, and literally change your life forever! You have come to the right place!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
