Why Jacqueline started breeding
My mother bred poodles when I was a child. Fast forward to the 90s and my son was a junior handler showing whippets and bulldogs. I adore whippets but wanted smaller dogs to travel with so I started showing Italian greyhounds. My husband is a Star Wars fan and had to have his dream dog; a brussel griffon. We fell in love with both breeds and added them to our family and our AKC show schedule.
