Q. & A. with Amanda & Donald
Why did you start breeding?
My parents started breeding about 25 years ago and iv always helped them but in January 2021 our original Kennel burnt to the ground and was total loss along with 11 dogs then 10 days later my mother passed away from covid and before she passed she told me to rebuild her building and take care of her babies that was left and to take her kennel to where she wanted it to be so that’s what I’ve been doing rebuilt the kennel and taking care of my moms babies so that’s how I got into this business I’m doing this in my moms memory and honoring one of her last wishes.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
