    We are a small, in-home breeder. Our goal is to produce healthy, loving dogs for those in need, and we strive to prepare all our puppies to excel in their forever homes. Our commitment is to provide you with a professional and friendly puppy-buying experience, and that includes always having responsible practices when it comes to breeding, training, and rehoming our puppies.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include petite and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include cream, apricot, red, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
