Q. & A. with Jessica
Why did you start breeding?
Our journey began with a deep love for the Dogo argentino's power, loyalty, and drive. After owning our first Dogo we were inspired by the breeds beauty and temperament. This passion grew into a commitment of responsible breeding with our focus on health, structure, and preserving the true Dogo spirit for future generations!
What makes your program special?
What sets our Dogo argentino program apart is our focus on health, temperament, and working ability. We carefully select bloodlines, raise pups in a family environment, and inphasize early socialization. Our goal is to produce balanced Dogos true to the breeds purpose -strong, loyal,and stable!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are white. 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.
