Q. & A. with Jessica
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding my parents or breeders and it’s something that I’ve always loved and did and it followed me to be an adult.What makes your program special?
I think I’m special because I also help hand pick puppies with new owners to where they live. What will they be used for? Is the Puppy high active low active? To make sure that my puppies get the best home that they can find. And I also at any time will take the puppy or adult dog back.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red merle and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
