Q. & A. with Debby
Why did you start breeding?
I fell in love with the Black Russian Terrier breed and decided to start my own responsible breeding program in order to continue my incredible line and to share these wonderful dogs with others. I’m passionate about what I do and am dedicated to producing healthy, quality dogs.What makes your program special?
The health and quality of my puppies are very important to me, and I make all of my breeding decisions accordingly. I prioritize health, temperament, structure, and conformation to the standard, as well as a variety of other factors. It is always my goal to produce show-quality dogs, and all of my puppies make wonderful companions.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
