Q. & A. with Skarlett
Why did you start breeding?
In 2019 I bred my Cocker Spaniel - Poodle Jingle. He was 8 years old at the time. Since then we’ve had 2 more generations of Jingle though he’s passed on. I hope to share his life and light through his lineage who continue to be just as silly and cute as he was.
What makes your program special?
We truly care about each puppy as if they were our own. We want the very best for them, responsible homes who will see them as family members and not as anything less than.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are brown and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
