Q. & A. with Lauren
Why did you start breeding?
When we got our first breeding prospect, Amren, we knew she would be the girl to start it all for us. Her temperament is second to none and her drive for everything she does exceeds what we expected. She was the reason we knew we wanted to really dive in to bettering the breed and showcasing what they can do.What makes your program special?
All of our dogs are our family and live in our home, compete in various sports, and do various activities. We have a diverse history of bloodlines too, with Romanian lines and American lines present. We also do complete OFA and CHIC health testing.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include white and liver, liver roan, liver and white, black and white, liver, black roan, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
