What do you like about this subject? Responsible breeding is a passion of mine & I excel in producing well-adjusted, healthy puppies for loving homes.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? I hope to share my knowledge with others so that all creatures may benefit.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject While I often encounter people who feel it's wrong to produce puppies into an already pet over-populated world (totally understandable!) I also receive countless phone calls, emails, photos, etc., from those who have received one of my puppies & are so grateful to have a well-adjusted, quality, healthy pet. Most litters are spoken for well in advance & potential owners are well screened.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: Old dogs CAN learn new tricks; however, the process is much easier on both owner & pet if training begins early & is maintained for life. Shelters are filled with pets who simply didn't receive the necessary training, time & attention to produce a well-adjusted pet. A small investment in proper health care & training time will last a lifetime! Pets live longer, happier lives when spayed/neutered!
