Q. & A. with Elizabeth Kraus &
Why did you start breeding?
We are a mother-daughter-granddaughter team and have spent the last 35+ years raising, showing, training, and breeding dogs together. As a child, I handled and trained different breeds, then as an adult continued my love for handling, showing, and breeding and passed this love and passion onto my daughter and she passed it onto her daughter.
What makes your program special?
We take the health of our dogs very seriously. We conduct seven OFA tests, eye tests, and genetic testing on our breeding dogs. Every puppy comes with a 3yr guarantee, but we offer a lifetime health guarantee also. We take great pride in raising our puppies to be happy, healthy, well socialized, and litter box trained prior to going to new homes. We offer lifetime breeder support and mentoring.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include brindle, cream, fawn, black and tan, white and fawn, white and black, white and brindle, liver, black and white, fawn and white, brindle and white, blue fawn, and blue. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
