I'm Bill B., the breeder behind Travelda Tollers located in Quakertown, PA. Our Tollers are bred for health and conformation. Tollers make for great hunting dogs, show dogs, or even just family pets. We'd love to talk with you to see if a Toller could be a good fit for your home!
Q. & A. with Bill
Why did you start breeding?
We became involved with Tollers in 2010 when our daughter Kelly acquired “Scooter” as a companion and hunting dog. We have had Pointers in the past and were winding down our participation with Akitas, so we figured it was a good time. We’ve always loved sporting breeds, so this was a natural evolution.
What makes your program special?
We recognize that breeding is part science and part art. Keeping that in mind, we test for genetic traits so we can select the best possible pairings for our dogs. Both our breeding dogs are genetically and traditionally tested. When you purchase a puppy it's both a financial and emotional investment. We want you to know that we have tried to take every precaution possible when breeding.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
