Q. & A. with Rob
Why did you start breeding?
I love the breed and my dogs have excellent temperaments and dispositions. I decided to share with others the wonderful breed I found and can improve upon. It has been such a fulfilling journey. Seeing each of my puppies' families experience the same level of joy that my dogs bring me is an amazing experience!
What makes your program special?
I am doing everything I can to ensure the breed standard, temperaments, and dispositions are well known. I am always making improvements to my breeding program with every litter. Every litter is always a little different, but it is so fulfilling to see the different personalities and such a joy and challenge to hand-raise each puppy. I love watching them blossom!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
