Q. & A. with Emily
Why did you start breeding?
My journey into breeding Poodles and Doodles began with a deep love for dogs and a passion for raising companions with exceptional temperaments and lifelong health. I prioritize extensive health testing to ensure each puppy starts life with the best foundation possible—physically and emotionally. My goal is to nurture well-rounded, affectionate dogs that bring joy and companionship to families for years to come.
