More about Melinda

  • Why Melinda started breeding

    I grew up in the breeding/ AKC show world because of my father. He used to raise and show top quality Chihuahua’s and Pomeranians. Our first Doberman was when I was 11 years old, her name was Daisy, she started my love for the breed and I knew I would always have a Doberman in my life, they are the most loyal and loving breed out there! And now my goal is to improve their health and longevity.
