Q. & A. with Jayden
Why did you start breeding?
After owning Rat Terriers most of my life, I developed a deep appreciation for their versatility and personality. Through my work in veterinary medicine, I saw the importance of thoughtful breeding and early development. I started a small, intentional program focused on raising health-conscious, temperamentally sound companions rather than breeding at high volume.What makes your program special?
The Puppy Patch is a small, home-based program in Molalla, OR where dogs are family first. Puppies are raised hands-on with early socialization, enrichment, and safe exposure to household, rural, and controlled clinical environments. With my veterinary background, health and preventive care are prioritized, and I remain a lifelong resource for my families.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include white and red, red white and sable, white and silver, black tan and white, and white, chocolate and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
