Q. & A. with Samantha
Why did you start breeding?
I love both my fur babies so much and because their great temperament so I decided to breed them. I am enjoy the whole process of breeding, watching the little puppy grow and being able to bring joy to other people family from my wonderful babies it makes me so happy. I also get to watch them grow in their family and receive positive feedback from all my buyer just incredible great feeling.
What makes your program special?
I put in 100% of my time into breeding, I make sure each puppy are gaining weight and healthy each day. I star training them to socialization once they open their eyes. I constantly rubbing and holding the puppies, give them toys to play. Exposing the puppies to noises like vacuum cleaning, dog barking, baby crying and different envioronments sounds, it will help them ready for their new homes.
