I'm Peggy R., the breeder behind Rippling Water Frenchies located in Bryson City, NC. We breed carefully for health and temperament to produce healthy puppies for select show and companion homes.
Q. & A. with Peggy
What makes your program special?
We feel fortunate to have shared our lives with several wonderful breeds. In addition to our beloved French Bulldogs, we are now experiencing the joys of life with a herding breed – our congenial Cardigan Welsh Corgis. We breed, show, train, live-with and love our dogs. The challenges of breeding are rewarded by the laughter and joy each of our dogs brings to us every day. We are happy to share our love, our experience, and occasionally our puppies, with other like-minded “dog people”.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include brindle, cream, and fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
