Q. & A. with Sonia
Why did you start breeding?
It was on accident really. I started with 1 baby... didn't want him to be alone and got him a friend. Then I just said wouldn't it amazing to have babies ♡♡ I did alot of research and advice my aunt raises a different breed. So, she told me some things and it started from there!
What makes your program special?
The love and attention these puppies get make it special ♡ my kids and I spend every waking min with the pups socializing them to the fullest treating them like our own until they go to their forever home ♡♡
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
