Q. & A. with Courtney M

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We wanted to put our passion for our dogs to good use. Breeding healthy, happy puppies is our way to give back to the breed and to the families who love them. We want nothing more than to see each of our dogs and puppies shine! It has been an absolute joy of a journey, and we are so happy to be able to share these wonderful dogs with other loving families and individuals.

  • What makes your program special?

    We are a small, in-home breeder and our goal is to produce healthy, loving dogs for those in need, and we strive to prepare all our puppies to excel in their forever homes. Our dogs and puppies are raised as companions and loved as family. We have a thorough and detailed socialization program that allows our puppies to thrive in any environment.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Poodle puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Golden Retriever puppies are golden. Poodle puppies include apricot, blue, cream, silver, white, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
