Q. & A. with Katalin
Why did you start breeding?
I am breeding collies for 30 years, started with rough collies and have border collies for 10+ years.
Dogs are my passion since I was born. Always loved the herding group and attended to several dog shows in the past in Hungary, before I moved to the US 15 years ago. My breeder partner and mentor has a Master Breeder kennel in Hungary.
What makes your program special?
All of my dogs are imported from Hungary, so our puppies have outstanding bloodlines and pedigrees, from the top breeders of the world.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have rough coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
