About the Breeder

A little about us

We love our fur babies and we thought they would make beautiful pups with their combind looks and personalities. So we decided to breed them. We are still new but have done a lot of reaserch. We have already had one litter and have our second one atm, everything went well and we enjoy everything about it.

Why we got involved in breeding

We decided after having Leo that we would buy a second compainion for Leo. After a few months of seeing them together we thought that they would make beuatiful looking pups and with thier different personalities together the pups would be a great mix.

Our special touch

We handle/cuddle and socialise our pups a lot. Whenever and where ever we can take them we do as long as its safe to do so.
