Q. & A. with Leslie
Why did you start breeding?

We love ALL of our dogs unconditionally and it is our main priority to maintain their happiness and health. All dogs will be health tested and clear before approved for breeding.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature, medium, and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream, apricot, red, chocolate, and phantom. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
