I'm Beth W., the breeder behind Prized Family Porties located in Narvon, PA. Raising puppies at "Prized Family Porties" is a family affair! Puppies are held and cared for as soon as they are born. With our large family of children and lots of country space to run, our puppies come well socialized and with a great curiosity for life! If you looked in our window, you might see puppies napping around the warm fireplace in the winter, or splashing in a kids pool in the summer. These puppies are part of our life and they enjoy many experiences with us.
All of our adult dogs have been genetically tested and also hip tested. Our dogs all have AKC bloodlines ( with some champions) and you can register your puppy with AKC as well. Our puppies have been sold as show dogs and therapy dogs. Come on out and pay us a visit and feel free to ask questions!
Q. & A. with Beth
Why did you start breeding?
We have been breeding since 2005.
What makes your program special?
Our breeding program is unique because we are breeding for quality bloodlines that the breed originally possessed. All our breeding pairs have genetic testing. And all our breeding pairs have hip certification. We are pleased to offer you a one year genetic/ congenital health guarantee for our puppies. Our large family of children are able to interact with the puppies daily which makes them very socialized.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and brown. 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.

Beth was always responsive to my questions which was really important to me as a first time puppy owner. Our puppy is healthy and is great with our children aged 11 and 7. Our family is in love with him and couldn't be happier. I can't wait til summer when we can visit some of our favorite lakes!
