My Buddies Puppies
Meet the breeder
I'm Denise C., the breeder behind My Buddies Puppies located in Chase, MI. I am having the time of my life with these beautiful fur-babies. I aim to produce the best of the best. I would like to provide handicapped and disabled veterans with a dog that can be a partner, companion, and friend. This is definitely the breed for that and I am loving every minute I get to spend raising these beautiful dogs. I raise my puppies with love and care and provide them with whatever they might need.
Q. & A. with Denise
Why did you start breeding?
When my dad passed away my mom needed a friend. To give her some companionship I bought her a Pomeranian. A year later, she said that the Pomeranian was lonely so we bought a female. I had one litter and that opened the door. I was hooked. I have been breeding ever since. I have had several breeds and have loved every minute of it. When she passed away I promised I would continue to breed and do my best to produce the best pups I can. I honor my mother's legacy by working to produce the best possible puppies and finding them the most wonderful homes.What makes your program special?
My puppies are fully potty pad and crate trained before they leave. They are handled by many people so they are very social and friendly. They are vet checked at least twice before they go to their new homes. After they go home, I ask that my buyers send confirmation of their vet visits so that I can ensure the puppies are being thoroughly cared for. I stand behind each and every pup and refuse to do any less than my best.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include sable, black, brown, cafe au lait, red, silver-beige, parti, phantom, and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
