More about Lizz
Why Lizz started breeding
I got into breeding when I got my own female 8 years ago, her name was peaches, I didn't plan on becoming a breeder, I just wanted one litter of puppies from her, and then everyone who got puppies from me told a whole bunch of people about me and how great my dogs were and how well they were taken care of, so I started doing research and doing all the proper testing. Unfortunately peaches is no longer with us and has passed on due to a tragic accident.
