Q. & A. with Alison
Why did you start breeding?
My love of dogs naturally led me to breeding. After raising dogs and several litters over the years, I found great joy in helping healthy, well-socialized puppies grow into beloved family companions. Breeding allows me to share that joy with other families while giving each puppy the best possible start in life.What makes your program special?
I raise a small number of puppies so each one receives plenty of individual attention, love, and socialization from day one. My dogs are family, not kennel dogs, and every puppy is raised in my home. I believe in carefully matching each puppy with the right family and providing lifelong support after they go home.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include apricot and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
