Q. & A. with Sage
Why did you start breeding?
When we were stationed at Fort Bragg we fell in love with a Boston terrier back in 2013. We started with Bostons and eventually also fell in love with French Bulldogs in 2018.
What makes your program special?
We focus on health and temperament. We are hands on from day one. Our dogs have OFA and genetic clearance which sets us apart from the vast majority who do not complete comprehensive OFA exams.
OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) certifications are a set of health screenings designed to assess the genetic health of dogs, particularly concerning hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as other hereditary conditions. These evaluations help breeders make informed decisions to improve the health and well-being of their breeding stock. By obtaining OFA certifications, breeders demonstrate their commitment to responsible breeding practices and the long-term health of their puppies, ultimately contributing to the reduction of breed-specific health issues.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Litter update on 22 Mar. •
Both of these girls are thriving and starting to open their eyes at just 11 days old! 🌟 Freya is the playful one, full of energy, while Hera is the calm and collected sweetheart.
In two weeks, we’ll be making our selection, but rest assured, both girls are exceptional, bred with intention, and a focus on health and temperament. Don’t miss out on these incredible pups!
Two out of the three from this last pairing are already making a difference as therapy and service dogs, and the third could easily follow in their footsteps. Their dad regularly accompanies me to the VA and is an amazing companion, just like their mom. 🐾❤️
