Q. & A. with Nicole
Why did you start breeding?
My IPO3 dog was requested for stud services that the kennel viewed as an excellent Sire. I acquired a Dam and worked with her and felt they would make excellent offspring. I have since had two other litters and this latest is looking amazing.
What makes your program special?
I train and title my dogs. So my puppies come from healthy, intelligent dogs and the offspring are all exposed to an early version of training and introduced to different facets of the training world.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have stock coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
