Q. & A. with Sara
Why did you start breeding?
I've started with my families American Bully dogs, going to shows and helping with litters. I then joined the army out of high school where I worked with some amazing GSDs. After the army, I began working with GSDs and now own an amazing male (Frankie -fixed) and Amara who does canicross and other sports with me. I now strive to have the perfect family pet that can do sports with you as well as lounge on the couch.What makes your program special?
We strive to produce healthy quality puppies that can either be an active family pet or a sport k9. All pups are indoors and under veterinary care since day one. Lifetime breeder support and extra precautions taken with health, training, and socialization!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
