Q. & A. with Melissa
Why did you start breeding?
I love seeing new puppies born, watching them grow, and helping shape them and train them in preparation for their new forever homes. I strive for quality and excellence with everything that I do. Holding myself to high standards is paramount to the well-being of my dogs and to the integrity of my program.
What makes your program special?
My dogs are an integral part of my family and daily life. This creates the ideal environment for puppies. From birth, they grow in a secure, loving environment where they know that they matter to their family -- that they have a purpose. It would be my pleasure to introduce your family to your next forever companion!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
