Q. & A. with Darcy
Why did you start breeding?
I participate in conformation shows and started breeding to continue and improve upon my Bernese Mountain Dog line. I truly love the Bernese Mountain Dog breed and am dedicated to looking out for the breed as a whole. I know the health and status of every dog I have bred and am proud of the temperament and conformation of my puppies.
What makes your program special?
I do not breed my dogs unless they are healthy and genetically tested. I am dedicated to always having responsible breeding policies when it comes to breeding, socializing, and training my pups. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
