Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
I first started breeding, showing, and training Labradors in 2001. I joined and belonged to a few clubs at that time while living in California. My kennel name at the time was "Sunrock Labradors." I have since found love and admiration for the Rottweiler and most recently the Mini Australian Shepherd. I strive to produce outstanding quality puppies and preserve the line of these incredible companions.What makes your program special?
The goal of my breeding program is to create a show quality dog who is sound in temperament, beautiful in type, healthy in genetics, correct in structure, strong in drives, intelligent in mind, proven in pedigree, and has an overall excellent appearance. For my Rottweilers, I look to produce dogs that are substantial in bone, powerful in the head, have dark eyes, dark mouth pigment, and well-defined rich mahogany markings. My 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 my puppies.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and tan and black and mahogany. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
