I'm Regina V., the breeder behind Murphree Valley Kennels located in Oneonta, AL.

They’re a daily part of everything we do until they’re ready to join their forever families.
Q. & A. with Regina
Why did you start breeding?
We bought our first girl Marlee 6 years ago. We fell in love with the breed. We then bought a sister for her, Ellie Mae. After being around them and seeing their loyalty and the love they brought to our family we decided to start breeding. I love the fact they didn’t shed and they were so smart.
What makes your program special?
I spend time each day with all my dogs. I keep their health as my top priority. I stand behind the health and well being of all my animals. I strive to produce the best puppies that are socialized, healthy, and happy. I aim to please each person that chooses to purchase from me.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include white, parti, liver, salt and pepper, black and silver, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

I could not have asked for a better experience with Regina. Any questions I had were answered immediately. Her care for her pups were highlighted in our 1st vet visit after picking up Jax. The vet said, “you got really lucky.” I owe it all to Regina. He is extremely confident, curious, and healthy. Jax might need a brother in the future and I would look to Murphree Valley kennels before going anywhere else.

I’m Olaf’s mom and we just got a great 8 week vet check. Regina was so caring and responsive to my questions and got right back with me. I met the parents and was reassured by her knowledge and obvious affection for the animals. It has been a very good experience.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Regina. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was kind, communicative, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Throughout the process, Regina kept me updated on my beautiful Sophie girl’s progress, which meant so much to me. I truly appreciated her flexibility and understanding every step of the way. It’s clear that Regina deeply cares about her puppies, and I believe that’s a big reason why Sophie is such a wonderful dog. I highly recommend working with Regina!

We are so happy with our experience with Regina. She answered all our questions, communicated so well, sent pictures weekly, and is just a nice person. Our puppy is sweet, adventurous, and potty trained thanks to Regina. He is getting along with our other dog really well and gaining confidence too. I absolutely recommend getting a puppy from Regina.

Regina was great to work with. This is my first puppy in my adulthood and my first experience with the breed, she happily answered all of my questions and made herself available. It was truly an stress-free process thanks to her.
