Q. & A. with Sherry
Why did you start breeding?
My first Sheltie was a poorly bred dog that I loved dearly. A veterinarian referred me to one of his conformation clients who started me down the path to showing, training and breeding these wonderful dogs.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are health tested, selected for conformation, temperament, and intelligence and raised with regard for socialization and preparation for new skills and experiences. Only an occasional litter is bred and they are always raised in the home.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
