I'm Lew S., the breeder behind Turkey Point Spinone Pups located in Cecil County, MD. I am a small hobby breeder that produces pups that will continue to excel whether they are showing or active family companions. I raise all of my dogs with love in my home. I have high expectations for my puppies and make sure to place each one with an enriching and loving family that will match their temperament and personality. I hope we can connect!
