Q. & A. with April
What makes your program special?
We have a very small selection of dogs in our favorite breeds! All babies are hand selected to the AKC standards. We are an in-home breeding program. Our dogs are family members and retire here. There are no crates or cages or separate living quarters. We have a doggie door and they have full access to the home, furniture, and beds.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Highly recommend going through April when looking for a new companion!!!!!!! Our little guy is the sweetest! He was already well puppy pad trained and does amazingly well in his little crate as we are crate training him!!!!! He has a very sweet disposition and adjusting so well in his new home you can tell her puppies are well taken care of and loved before being adopted to their forever homes!!! Nothing but good things to say! Money well spent in my honest opinion!!!!! Our puppy is happy and healthy!!!! Thank you April!!!!! If we decide to adopt another down the road you will be our top breeder we come to!

+6April was responsive and communicative. She reached out with update pictures and kept the communication going even when we arrived home to make sure everything went well. We are so impressed with how well Potato already knew how to use puppy pads and how easily he’s transitioning to outside potty training. His temperament is also really impressive and he’s so well behaved.

April was amazing to work with. She was extremely responsive from the very beginning and kept us updated with our puppy’s growth every week. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her dogs, our little girl came to us already well-socialized, well-potty trained for her age, and with such a sweet, calm temperament. We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend T. Rex Doxies & Friends to anyone looking for a loving, responsible breeder.
