Q. & A. with Beverly
Why did you start breeding?
My husband brought a puppy on Christmas Eve from a pet store. The puppy became very sick and died within five days. I didn't want another family to experience that loss so I started looking at breeds to find one that fit our lives.What makes your program special?
I take lots of pride in my dogs and families that own them. It is important to put the right puppy in it forever home. Now many of my puppies go to repeat buyers and now even their children now adults come back for their puppies.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
