Q. & A. with Janel

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My mom bred when I was younger and I watched and helped my entire life and loved every second of it. My mom definitely showed me how to ethically bred pups and be a responsible owner/breeder. I have since devoted my time to produce quality puppies focused on health, temperature, physical appearance and making sure I find them a forever home. I love helping others find their forever companionship.

    I couldn't be happier with my new baby Suki! My kids adore her! Janel was so nice and professional. Kept me updated with pics,videos & all the information needed to have her delivered. Would recommend her to any one! Thank you Janel for everything.

    I adopted my sweet Pomeranian, Mochi, from Janel and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very beginning, Janel was incredibly responsive, friendly, and flexible. She answered all my questions in a timely fashion and just made the adoption process in general smooth and stress free. She provides all the necessary paperwork, including vaccine records and AKC registration, and truly goes above and beyond for her puppies and their new families. Mochi came home with a cozy blanket that had the scent of her parents and siblings, along with some food and toys to help her adjust. Janel even included a ball that Kochi had shown interest in that I really wanted for her. Kochi is the sweetest, happiest little dog, and I can tell she came from a loving and well cared for environment. I highly recommend Janel to anyone looking for a healthy, well socialized puppy and an adoption experience filled with care and kindness.

    Janel was very responsive to my questions about her goals as a breeder and what the mother and the father of the litter were like. I explained what I was looking for in regards to the right companion for my son who is verbal, high functioning autistic. She had no problem sending updates in the format of pictures and videoes periodically. She even went so far as to start calling our pup by the name we picked out for him. All around she is a really amazing person and I'm so glad we did business with her 🤗

    About a year ago I lost my little fifteen year old chihuahua. Very heartbreaking for me. I decided it was time to get another little friend. I was getting nowhere scams.People asking too much for dogs.Nobody's verified, and then I found janel. She took the time to talk to me.Ease, my mind and paired me with the most perfect little puppy. She was very kind and showed empathy. Her communication was excellent.She sent pictures and videos and updates through the whole process.She put up with all my calling with questions and was very informative and I couldn't recommend anybody better to get a puppy from. I will be recommending her to all my friends and family and anybody who else gets to read this post.It was an excellent five star service that she provided and a beautiful, happy, healthy puppy. Thank you for all you do janel. This has been the most easiest smooth transition.I appreciate everything you've done for me.
