Meet the breeder
I'm Tammy R., the breeder behind Maple Leaf Shelties located in Maricopa County, AZ. My motto has always been, I'm not selling a dog. I'm adding a member to your family. The goal we set and which I believe is still the most important, is to produce healthy puppies that make a well-rounded character in an adult dog. Sometimes the most ordinary things can be made extraordinary simply by doing them with a Shetland Sheepdog!
Q. & A. with Tammy
Why did you start breeding?
It all began when I decided to begin breeding my next champion.What makes your program special?
Each puppy is an individual. It is so fun to see them grow and be introduced to the world. I love having a part in breeding healthy, well-socialized dogs. And I enjoy raising them and finding them a forever home.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
