I'm the breeder behind Brox Acres House of Fur LLC located in Nekoosa, WI. Our Gorgeous Pups are bred for health, temperament, and loving dispositions. Mom's and Dad are first and foremost our beloved pets. We strive to produce healthy, intelligent pups that are the best overall family members and able to integrate comfortably into a variety of households and lifestyles.
About Heather
I am a Registered Nurse with 5 children. As my children are now a little older I have decided to pursue some of my interests. I have always loved animals especially, baby animals. I also LOVE the Shih Tzu breed.
What makes Heather’s program special
All of my Pups are first and foremost our family pets. I have chosen my Mom's and Dad's very carefully so that they produce the best puppies possible.
