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

About COCO
Coco is a beautiful silver and white parti with very attractive hazel eyes. As stated in the sire’s description, I purchased her from Wilma at the age of 18 months only due to the fact that I was wanting a young adult and she was changing directions in color choosing Merle. She has acclimated to our home with three special needs children, around the clock nurses, my 89 year old Mother as all of these new puppies have been introduced to, so amazingly well. How grateful we are to have her as an addition to our blessed Family!
