Q. & A. with Grace
Why did you start breeding?
I started out breeding for extra money when my children were small. I grew to love the breed and always tried to improve the quality of my puppies by choosing higher quality dogs for my breeding program. As my children grew up and left the house I focused on better quality dogs.What makes your program special?
I import my dogs directly from Europe. I look for intelligence, health and presentation.What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies include plush and long coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
