I strive to produce quality puppies for families that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive, and have wonderful temperaments. As a breeder, I feel a sense of responsibility to prioritize the overall health and temperament of each of my puppies and to ensure that they are loved and well cared for prior to joining their forever homes.

Why did you start breeding?
I care about the Shihpoo breed and do everything in my power to breed sound dogs to ensure healthy and happy puppies. My puppies’ health and wellbeing are my main priorities.

I am very dedicated to what I do and what I aim to achieve as a breeder. I truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.
