Q. & A. with Melanie
Why did you start breeding?
In 2014, we purchased a high-quality, well-bred AKC female yellow Lab with champion lines and we completed the necessary X-rays and other health tests/exams under strict guidance/mentorship of our long-time breeder.What makes your program special?
Small, home-based, pups handled from birth with lots of TLC; early training with an emphasis on potty training and bite inhibition. We enjoy keeping in touch with new families and watching pups grow up into happy, healthy, loving dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
