Meet the breeder

I'm Linda R., the breeder behind Windsong located in Menomonee Falls, WI. Our dogs are shown in AKC events to insure they meet the breed’s standards. Adult dogs are genetically tested and examined for common health issues. Lots of thought goes into selecting the right pair so that the pups have the best chance to be healthy, happy cresteds. Puppy training starts at day three and continues until they find their forever home.

Q. & A. with Linda

  • Why did you start breeding?

    After we purchase our first show prospect and he attained his championship we got hooked and wanted to become involved in promoting and continuing this beautiful breed.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our puppies are raised in a wonderful home environment with lots of socializing by toddlers to seniors. They also get to play with multiple other dog breeds and explore their environment.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies include powderpuff and hairless coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include cream, black white and tan, slate, sable, and apricot. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
