I'm Trinette B., the breeder behind TNT PUPPIES located in Martin, TN. We offer healthy, happy, intelligent, and well socialized pups. The perfect addition to any family. We socialize early, exposing them to many different surfaces, sounds and people including children. Leash and potty training early. I use vaccines that were invented by a local vet (less side effects for tiny pups), up to date on wormer, detailed records, and vet exam. Health and temperament is key.
Q. & A. with Trinette
Why did you start breeding?
I absolutely love the Maltese breed and then later after getting a toy poodle I realized why so many people love maltipoos. Both breeds are so amazing! The combination of loving the breed and also my past experiences with bad breeders moved me to want to offer healthy, amazing, well socialized puppies, that would be the perfect addition to any family.
What makes your program special?
My goal is not just to move a puppy like some breeders. My goal is more about connection. I am still in contact with all of my past pup families. I'm very much attached to my babies, when they leave getting those updates helps. Seeing them living their best life and being the best addition to your family. If you are willing to share updates then my pup might be the one for you.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Poodle puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Poodle puppies include apricot, black, and silver. Maltipoo puppies include apricot, cream, and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

TNT PUPPIES reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Maltipoos.

A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
