I'm the breeder behind ZFG located in Jackson, MI. I strive to produce quality puppies for families that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive and have wonderful temperaments. As a breeder, I feel a sense of responsibility to prioritize the overall health and temperament of each of my puppies and to ensure that they are loved and well cared for prior to joining their forever homes.

It is important to me that I am breeding versatile, well-rounded, socialized, and healthy pups for my buyers to welcome into their homes and hearts.
What makes Janet’s program special
My dogs are bred to produce healthy, sound, and versatile pups. My ultimate goal is to produce athletic and well-structured canines that can excel within various performance venues and have the ability to be the greatest family companions. I can provide extensive knowledge and guidance for any family looking to bring home one of these wonderful dogs.

American Hairless Terrier
Puppies are raised using the Puppy Culture training program. They are raised in the home, not in a kennel. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Basic Manners, Socialized with Strangers, Noise Desensitization, Various Surfaces, Puppy Culture, Structures, e.g. Climbing, Chew, e.g. Bone, Grooming Desensitization, Toys, e.g. Ball, Early Neurological Stimulation, Socialized with Elderly, Household Desensitization, Sound Stimulation, Socialized with Children, Socialized with Other Animals, and Socialized with Adult Dogs.
Puppies receive age-appropriate deworming and vaccines prior to rehoming.
We send our puppies home with AKC Registration.
Janet offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
Work with a trusted flight nanny to get your puppy comfortably dropped off at an airport or meeting point close to home.
Why Janet started breeding
My love for American Hairless Terriers inspired me to share this amazing breed with the world in a responsible way. It is such an honor to preserve the line of these incredible dogs all the while creating companionship for others. It has been an absolute joy of a journey and I pride myself on helping all of my clients find the right fit for their needs and lifestyle.
