I'm the breeder behind Russell Brothers Farms located in North Carolina. We decided to start breeding to share the best possible puppies with excellent personalities, temperament, and most of all health! We are a small, in-home breeding program where we prioritize giving each dog and puppy the best care that we can. We cherish all of our animals and enjoy sharing the love of this breed with other individuals and families!
Heavenly has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices.
