I'm Kristy R., the breeder behind Richards Root River Pekingnese located in Preston, MN. I offer top-quality Pekingnese puppies for families who share the same love and passion that I do for these lovely companions. As a breeder, I feel a sense of responsibility to prioritize the overall health and temperament of each of my puppies and to ensure that they are loved and well cared for prior to joining their forever homes.
Q. & A. with Kristy
Why did you start breeding?
I have always been invested in the well-being of animals. I wanted to give back to the breed by producing healthy pups and placing them into loving homes. It is such an honor to preserve the line of these incredible dogs all the while creating companionship for others.
What makes your program special?
My dogs and puppies are considered members of my family, and they get the best care I can possibly provide. I spoil each of my puppies with personal attention and lots of group playtime! I love connecting them with families that will love them just as much as I do.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream and fawn sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
