Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
Although I am very involved in showing my dogs, they are beloved companions first and foremost. I decided to responsibly breed them as a way to connect my pups to others that will love them just as much as I do.
What makes your program special?
I can provide extensive knowledge and guidance for any family looking to bring home one of these wonderful dogs. My dogs and puppies are considered members of my family, and they get the best care I can possibly provide.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
