Q. & A. with Faith
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding by working with dogs. I worked at a kennel for years where my love for Shepherds really sparked! I’ve bred litters before and am very happy to see the pups that were produced and the amazing owners that have taken great care of them!What makes your program special?
The two things that set me apart are the absolute most important things in breeding my dogs are health and temperament. Breeding dogs that are cleared for all health testings and have amazing drives sets them up for success!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 and a kennel on my property.
