Meet the breeder
I'm Tara R., the breeder behind Sunlit Reg. located in Kidder, MO. We enjoy showing our dogs, & they are our companions in every adventure. We do all we can to give our dogs & pups the best lives. It is always our goal to produce our next show prospect, and the puppies we don’t keep go to loving, responsible homes. Our breeding dogs are outstanding representations of the standard, and they make beautiful, well-structured puppies.
