Meet the breeder

I'm Kristen B., the breeder behind Melody Lane Brussels Griffons located in Litchfield Park, AZ. My passion is to breed quality Brussels Griffon pups and connect them with loving forever homes. I keep a variety of factors in mind when choosing dogs to breed so that puppies can inherit the best of both parents. I do not give breeding rights on my dogs as I consider this my intellectual property. My prices currently range from $2500-$4500, depending upon color, coat and quality. I am confident that my puppies will enrich your life just as much as my dogs have touched mine - they are happy, intelligent, and cute as can be!

Q. & A. with Kristen

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have owned and bred Brussels Griffons since 1991. I have seen many fads come and go. The current fad for this beautiful, little toy breed is to breed them much larger than the breed standard. The AKC breed standard is 8-10 pounds with the exceptional dog allowed to be up to 12 pounds. Many in the ring and out in the public are 14-20 pounds! My dogs are bred as close to the standard as possible

  • What makes your program special?

    First, I ONLY breed purebred, AKC Brussels Griffons. Any dogs not AKC are likely not purebred or were bought without breeding rights. Brussels Griffons should NEVER have white on them. ALL of my breeding stock weighs no more than 12 pounds at maturity, and most weigh 8-10 pounds. Is there any better investment than that of one on a living being that will be a companion and a best friend for many years to come?

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include red, black and tan, and belge. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    I’d been looking for another Brussels puppy for a while and had admired several of Kristen’s puppies while browsing Good Dog. At one point I began messaging about a particular one but I was too slow to put a deposit down and he went to someone else. I was a little disappointed at the time, but now I’m grateful that happened because a few weeks later she posted the most perfect boy and I immediately put down my deposit and flew from Alaska to Phoenix to get him. Kristen met me at the airport for an easy transfer. I named him Grimley and he is just perfect, perfect face, perfect body, perfect personality. He’s the sweetest little guy and so playful but also cuddly and sweet. He’s also very brave, smart and well adjusted for his age. He loves every person and animal that he meets. He has fit right in with my other Griffon and they were instant best friends and play all day. I’m very happy with little Grimley.

    Kristen was fantastic. She made things go super smoothly. I was interested in one of her pups but didn't act, and ended up getting a different one. I am so incredibly in love with this little guy. I'm of course glad it worked out this way. Kristen made our meetup easy as I flew in to meet her- it was great.

    Thank you again Kristen for making our dream come true! You have been such an amazing breeder and communicator since the beginning! I am so glad we reached out to you. Thank you for everything especially getting him used to the carrier before we got him. That made our flight home so much more relaxing! Boluo has been a fun, loving and energetic puppy and we absolutely love him!(I think he loves us too! :P) He is adjusting well to the new home and even made a few new friends in the neighborhood already! I highly recommend Kristen if you want a loving BG furry friend to join your family.

    Kristen is super responsive and easy to work with. More importantly, she bred and raised a very healthy, confident, and well adjusted puppy. Our new little guy has fit into our family with such ease that I cannot even imagine our lives before him! He is a sweet heart and reflects Kristen’s love and care.

He’s a show stopper- people stop in their tracks to ask about him. Best part? He and my disabled daughter are besties. He is such a ray of sunshine!
