Q. & A. with Calandra

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We love the breed! And love finding a way to provide a smaller kid friendly type dog.
  • What makes your program special?

    We want to do what’s best for the puppies. Our vet takes care of the shots and dewormings. We have 2 small kids who are big helpers so the puppies are used to being around small kids. We have the litter in our living room. Center of anything and everything, so they are used to household noises and activities when they leave us.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
