I am a dog breeder. I have spent a lifetime learning pedigrees, going over dogs, talking, and learning from those in my breed and those outside it. I raise each litter as if I gave birth to them and spend an equal amount of time finding them loving forever homes. I only bring puppies into this world that I think will be the healthiest (mentally and physically) and best examples of their breed. I support each family who is chosen for one of my puppies and let them know they are now a part of my extended family. I treat them all well, answer calls day or night, through thick and thin. I am a BREEDER.

I am there if one needs to come back and will aggressively pursue the return of one of my dogs if it's not in the right place. I support my breed in rescue and education. I hold them when they arrive and when they leave this world. I share my knowledge and socialize my dogs so that they will be the advertisement for my dedication. I don't keep track of the money and time invested in to my love of dogs, it would not be a true measure of how I feel.

The price charged for my puppies is never for profit, but rather an investment in the next generation. We are not ashamed of who we are... We work hard at being good dog breeders and encourage others. We are breeders and proud of it. If we don't support each other - we are doomed as a fancy.
