Q. & A. with Joshua & Marissa
Why did you start breeding?
Ever since our first puppy, Taki, we fell in love with her right away. Immediately, our dream was to breed more like her. Eventually, we came across her perfect male match and added him to the pack. We now take care in breeding our family pets to produce adorable, happy fur babies.
What makes your program special?
We focus exclusively on the Cavatzu breed. We feel that Cavatzu's truly make the best family pets. They are easy to love and easy to care for. We want to produce the best family pets for our families.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and tan, black and white, liver and white, and blenheim. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
