Q. & A. with Georgia
Why did you start breeding?
I’ve always been a lifelong dog lover, and over the years I realized I wanted to share that joy with others. Starting with my own doodles, I fell in love with the process of raising healthy, happy, and well-socialized puppies. Breeding became a way to combine my love for dogs with my commitment to responsible care, ensuring every puppy gets the best start and goes to a loving, fur-ever home.What are the different breed sizes in your program?

Our puppies include silver, apricot, phantom, chocolate, cream, brown, brindle, parti, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?

Litter update on 04 Feb •…Sweet Millie and Tux are still waiting for their forever families! Millie loves to cuddle as you can see in the photos snuggling her dad Rizzo & brother Tux. She is incredibly intelligent and has down a few basic commands at 10 weeks old. She also is a shadow puppy and loves spending time with her people! Tux is a little more independent and enjoys doing his own thing from time to time, but snuggles are always on the agenda when you want them. Tux can “sit” and is working on “shake”. He loves to eat, loves treats, loves taking long naps, and being with his crew. 🩷 Please reach out if interested!

Program update on 14 Jan •…Litter Update 🩷 This litter is doing very well and continues to make steady progress with potty training. The puppies are currently using puppy pads placed directly by the door, which is done intentionally. This helps them begin associating potty time with the exit, making the transition to outdoor potty training smoother when they’re developmentally ready. For families who plan to continue using puppy pads long-term, this foundation also supports consistent pad use as well. This approach allows flexibility for different home environments while still setting puppies up for success. I’m very pleased with how smart, adaptable, and eager to learn this litter has been.
