A little about us

I’m Kristie, a proud ethical and responsible registered Dogs VIC breeder and Canine Nutritionist.

Why we got involved in breeding

Our special touch

Our dogs are our family and we base our whole lives around them. We work holistically to keep the breed standard high and pride ourselves on our customer service focus - we want people to get a feel for what we do and pour our heart and soul into attracting like-minded owners.
