Q. & A. with Aimee
Why did you start breeding?
I have always known I wanted to spend my life surrounded by dogs. I am a dog groomer and have been given unconditional love from the dogs in my life. I wanted to give back to the Poodle breed by doing my part to responsibly breed them and find them loving homes.
What makes your program special?
My priority is to ensure the health and well-being of all my dogs from birth until they leave with their forever family and beyond. When you purchase a puppy from me, you become family. I look forward to connecting you with your new four-legged family member!
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
