Q. & A. with Cassandra
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding by my close neighbors, they breed Sheepadoodles and golden doodles. They had asked me if I would be interested in raising dogs and caring for them like they do. I thought why not, if I don’t like it, I can do it and try it once and I absolutely adore Poodles although I wasn’t too familiar with Sheepdogs either, I did a lot of research on the breeds and what I was going to be going into. Turns out I absolutely spending my time nurturing and caring for this breed and puppies 24/7.What makes your program special?
What makes my breeding program special is the amount of work I put in for making the best possible pet. This includes, getting the idea of potty training, crate training, telling the puppy parents consistency is key, and grooming is so so important for this breed and I love telling how the puppy parents can care for their new dogs coat.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include medium and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
