Q. & A. with Catherine
Why did you start breeding?
I have always been interested in breeding, but wanted to do it responsibly with a healthy, quality dog that represents the best of the breed. I love puppies and training and am excited to have the opportunity to raise a litter and give them the best possible start.What makes your program special?
My breeding program is special because I am breeding health tested dogs with performance titles. The fluffy coats are icing on the cake. My puppies are raised in my home using Puppy Culture principles to ensure they are set up for success in their new homes. I enjoy training and providing the foundational skills a dog needs to thrive in our world.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red, sable, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
