Q. & A. with Nikki

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I guess the how comes from the why. And the why is easy, all you need to do is describe a dog. Unconditional love, loyalty, devotion, forgiveness, affection. No matter what you look like, how you’re feeling, or what you’re doing, the dog is always there. Always happy to just be with you. With complete acceptance. How many people in your life give you this? I’m privileged to be surrounded by my dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Boston Terrier puppies include red, lilac, and blue. Belgian Malinois puppies include black sable, red, mahogany, fawn sable, and fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    I am so glad I found Nikki and her wonderful Boston Terriers. My new puppy, Toby, is absolutely adorable and such a happy, healthy baby boy. Nikki was the best with her updates and her prompt responses to my questions. From before I made my deposit to the day she handed Toby to me, Nikki shared her expertise and kept me informed. Thank you, Nikki, for the work you did to give such a precious gift to me and my family. Toby is much loved and a wonderful companion and family member.

    Nikki was responsive and pleasant to deal with! She was flexible on the pick up date & also drove a good distance to help reduce my long journey there. Which was very much appreciated. She also shared weekly update photos until he was ready for pick up. On the pick up date, she also brought a puppy pack with food, a toy and essentials, very thoughtful. We’re in love with our pup! He’s socialized, uses his potty pads often, and sleeps through the night. Very impressive considering his young age. Our vets assessment was that he is strong and healthy. Overall great experience.

    Getting a puppy from afar without meeting in person first was a new experience for us. Nikki was great about answering our questions and doing video visits so we could watch Tunie and her siblings grow. Tunie is an active, healthy little Boston. From the moment we picked her up, she was comfortable with us and with the sounds of daily life around the house. She’s a wonderful addition to our family!

    Getting my Belgian Malinois, Jethro, from Nikki was one of the best decisions I’ve made. From the very beginning, Nikki demonstrated a level of professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care that truly sets her apart as a breeder. Her communication was consistent, transparent, and honest. She took the time to answer every question I had and made sure I fully understood the responsibilities that come with owning a Malinois. It was clear she wasn’t just placing dogs—she was carefully matching them with the right owners. Jethro’s temperament, intelligence, and drive speak volumes about the quality of Nikki’s breeding program. He is confident, well-balanced, and already showing strong working potential. You can tell he comes from solid bloodlines and was raised with proper early development and attention. What stood out the most was Nikki’s dedication to her dogs beyond the sale. She genuinely cares about where her puppies go and remains a resource for guidance and support. That level of commitment is rare and speaks to her integrity as a breeder. If you’re looking for a high-quality Belgian Malinois from someone who truly knows and respects the breed, I would highly recommend Nikki without hesitation.

    We have found the perfect puppy after losing two of our Boston’s over the past two years. Nikki answered all our questions and concerns when we emailed her. We felt comfortable purchasing from her through Good dog. We love that she said she will always be available if we need anything after we took him home. She also went out of her way to make our drive a little less long and we appreciate the thoughtfulness so much. We even went home with a puppy care package. We are in love. He is healthy and the sweetest boy. Thank you!!! Nikki is a great breeder and someone reliable to purchase quality Boston’s from.
