After losing a rescue dog to a heritable disease (degenerative myelopathy), I took a deep dive into ethical breeding. I firmly believe that, contrary to popular belief, good breeders keep dogs out of shelters and reduce the demand for puppy mills. My breeding goals are contributing quality dogs that have stable temperaments, long term health, and diverse genetics.
I am a former zookeeper and mother of 3!
I became a fulltime zookeeper in 2016 working with elephants, rhinos, and tapirs. I recently left the job to spend more time with my kids and start up a dog boarding business.
