Q. & A. with Sonya
Why did you start breeding?
I understand the very important role that breeders undertake; that today’s breeders are the guardians of the future Samoyeds. I strive to not only produce exceptional puppies but to help promote responsible breeding in order to ensure that the Samoyed will continue to thrive for generations to come with its best qualities.
What makes your program special?
I am a selective, home-based breeder that focuses on health, genetics, temperament, and structure, and every breeding decision is made accordingly. I am passionate about preparing my puppies to thrive in their forever homes and enjoy mentoring their new families so that they can raise their new, furry companions with confidence and joy.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
