Q. & A. with Michael
Why did you start breeding?
I believe in the importance of responsible breeding and the health of dogs. That's why, I aim to help in maintaining the great qualities that the American Staffordshire Terrier breed offers. I also strive to educate others on how they make a great addition to any family that's willing to put the time and effort to raise them.What makes your program special?
We raise our puppies on the Puppy Culture Program so that they start on the right path even before arriving home to their new families.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red sable, white, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
