Q. & A. with Marlayn
Why did you start breeding?
Well I love dogs and as I bought more I decided to start breedingWhat makes your program special?
I breed only top quality Shih Tzu and I selectively chose dogs who meet our strict confirmation, health and temperament standards. Our adult Shih Tzu live at home as part of our families. Our puppies are raised the same way! Our puppies are heavily socialized, have multiple grooming ls and are very well socialized before going home to you!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include chocolate, liver, liver and white, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?

Marlayn was a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to make sure we got our precious Gizmo safe and sound! Even gifted us with a bag of goodies for him! Communication was amazing and she sent really helpful information and tips for our little guy! It’s so obvious she cares for all her pups and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a new member of the family! Thanks again to MayMay!

Marlyn was wonderful during this process of buying my fur baby Tai. She was very responsive to any request, question and or concern I had. She shared pictures and videos. I loved pick up, because I meet Raven, Blaze and the rest of the Family. Very helpful and welcoming. She even had farewell puppy pack to get us started ie shot records, food, toy, collar and valuables information. I will definitely keep in touch with her, to get me another fur baby. She was the best..

I got my sweet Bella from MayMay. The process was quick and smooth. She came with all her paperwork and a care package with food to get me started. I can tell she really cares for her puppies and want them to go to the best homes. Bella is sweet and wants lots of hugs. She even has checked on her. If Bella needs a playmate I would definitely be calling MayMay.
