Q. & A. with Ana

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Our journey into the world of breeding began with the arrival of our first beloved family dog, a Chihuahua, who not only won our hearts but also sparked a deep-seated passion for canine companionship. As time has progressed, we have broadened our family to encompass other extraordinary breeds, each contributing uniquely to our lives and enriching our experiences with their joy and companionship.

  • What makes your program special?

    Our breeding program stands out due to our careful selection of dogs for raising. We prioritize not only health and desirable traits but also ensure that each dog has an excellent temperament. This intentional approach allows us to produce puppies that inherit a well-rounded blend of these valued characteristics.

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

    Our Maltese puppies are white. Morkie puppies include chocolate, piebald, black & tan tri-color, and black and tan. Biewer Terrier puppies include chocolate tan and white, blue tan and white, and black tan and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
