Kaya - Red Bi Girl - Is with Eric & Amanda in MN

"Thank you for being so loving and attentive towards the pups. We appreciate all the time you are investing to get them acclimated to different life experiences. Kaya is becoming soo beautiful ❤️❤️ she owns our hearts and rules our house. Lol! Her and Tacoma play together hours every single day, pulling each others neck tuff. Her and rascal play a couple times a week as rascal isn't as active as he was years ago. But you can see they all love each other very much. I am so grateful she is a part of my life and she is more than i ever deserved".

Lobor Of Love

That's all what it is!
As mentioned earlier, this is all a Labor Of Love. Considering the many hours around the clock it takes to raise a healthy active intelligent litter of puppies, we are not in this to turn a profit. Sure there are cheaper ways of breading and raising puppies, but that is not what we set out to do. We do this for those few families that understand and appreciate our efforts.
