I'm Melissa S., the breeder behind Suttonhaus Boxers located in Prospect, PA. All of our dogs are loved as family members. We cherish our puppies from birth up until they leave our arms to snuggle into yours! When we got Luna, we absolutely adored her. After vigorous health testing so as not to transfer bad genetics on to pups, we decided it was time. Please review pricing!

Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

Melissa was awesome, answered all our questions promptly, sent health info, additional photos, videos and did a live video call with us. We had to pick up Bella a bit later at 10 weeks, and Melissa was very accommodating. She cares deeply about her dogs, and takes such great care of them. We are lucky to have a beautiful pup from her. Bella has an awesome personality and is great with other dogs and people! I highly recommend Melissa and her dogs.
