About Jennifer
I'm a strong and passionate advocate of proper breeding practices and run my program accordingly. I focus on the healthy development of all my puppies because I know that each one is unique and deserving of undivided love and attention. Seeing each of my puppies' families experience the same level of joy that my dogs bring me is an amazing experience!
What makes Jennifer’s program special
We are dedicated to breeding dogs that I know are excellent representations of the standard and will make a positive contribution to their line and YOU. I prioritize proper care and socialization for each puppy and set my puppies up for success by carefully selecting the parents of each litter. I choose parents whose genes bring out the best qualities and produce well-balanced puppies!
