I'm Karla V., the breeder behind Misstree’s St. Bernards located in Victoria, TX. I am a small, home-based breeder with large expectations for my Saint Bernards! I offer top-quality, loving, beautiful puppies. My love for Saint Bernards inspired me to share this breed with the world in a responsible way. I devote my time, energy, and attention to each litter to ensure my puppies get the best start in life. I take pride in what I do and am excited to introduce your family to your next Saint Bernard puppy!
Q. & A. with Karla
Why did you start breeding?
I have always been invested in the well-being of animals. I wanted to give back to the breed by producing healthy pups and placing them into loving 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. I'm excited to share this wonderful breed with the rest of the dog community.
What makes your program special?
I do everything I can to ensure my puppies have what they need to develop into healthy and happy dogs. In my breeding program, good health and temperament are essential, and cuteness and love are guaranteed. It would be my pleasure to introduce your family to your next Saint Bernard!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
