Q. & A. with Teresa
Why did you start breeding?
I always had any different dogs growing up. My little treasures. I never bred in past, over 16 years ago I met a wonderful breeder who we talked for a couple of years. She was going to direct her time to show/handling and she had a crested that had puppies. She asked me if I could care for them while she was alway. I feel in love with the crested breed, they were so smart, intelligent, silly, alert and easy to train. So my wonderful life with the Chinese Cresteds started!
What makes your program special?
Genetic tested parents.I was tired of breeders saying the puppy was cleared by parents default.I deworm on a specific schedule, given quality shots, dew claws removed by my vet.AKC microchipped. 3 to 5 year genetic guarantee. Puppies are in my home & socialize w/family & friends.They are held/loved on daily.Potty training starts at 3 weeks after first shot we start outside potty training.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies include powderpuff and hairless coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include white, pink and slate, slate, pink and chocolate, cream, black and white, and apricot. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
