I'm Coleen A., the breeder behind Morningsmile Kennels located in Winston Salem, NC. It’s important to us that we continue to improve our program and share our knowledge with our buyer families. We want to better the breed through thorough health testing and selective breeding decisions.
I am a stay at home puppy mom.
All our puppies get dewormed every two weeks, their first shots and a vet visit.
Q. & A. with Coleen
Why did you start breeding?
My parents bred Great Pyrenees and I loved it. I found my spirit dog in the pug. It gives me so much pleasure to place pug puppies with loving families.
What makes your program special?
I take special one on one time with each puppy. They are raised in our living space. This means they are used to a cat, other dogs, vacuuming and the t.v.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Pug puppies are black. Siberian Husky puppies include gray and white, red and white, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
