Riverlea Kennel
Meet the breeder
I'm Tracee S., the breeder behind Riverlea Kennel located in Thurston County, WA. I take pride in breeding quality puppies and strive for perfection in health, temperament, beauty, and conformation. All of my dogs and puppies are raised as family members. Every litter is always a little different, but it is so fulfilling to see the different personalities and such a joy and challenge to hand-raise each puppy. I love watching them blossom!
Q. & A. with Tracee
Why did you start breeding?
I am getting back into breeding after taking a break from it a while back. Because of my dedication to both the physical and mental health of these incredible dogs, I breed to pass these traits down to future generations. I’m passionate about what I do and am dedicated to producing healthy, quality dogs!What makes your program special?
Riverlea Kennel is dedicated to only breeding dogs that we know are excellent representations of the standard and will make a positive contribution to their line and to the families who love them. I carefully plan each litter with a special focus on compatibility, health testing, temperament, and conformation. I am proud of the temperament and beauty of my quality puppies and know that each one will become a treasured family member!What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
