I'm Michelle W., the breeder behind Wulff's East LA Puppies located in La Monte, MO. Each of our dogs has brought so much happiness to us throughout their lives. We want to do our part to produce wonderful, healthy dogs that can bring other people joy as well, and we strive to provide each of our puppies with loving homes where they can live happy lives.
Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
I got started when I fell in love with Shih-tzu's. I was surprised there weren't that many in our area.
What makes your program special?
I'm not big on registries like some have to have AKC. AKC doesn't make your dog healthy. We breed for health and beautiful colors. All my dogs are registered though.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include miniature and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies include smooth and longhaired coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include piebald, cream, red, chocolate, brindle, black and tan, and dapple. 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.

Nova is the sweetest girl ever! I get compliments on her past litters personality. She loves to run around the yard and check everything out but she never strays too far. She is as loyal as can be and after her next litter, will be a couch potato.
