taking Best of Breed to
finish his Canadian
Championship

    FIRST and foremost, we breed for correct temperament and
    health combined with sound structure. In the eighties, we
    came to understand that temperament was genetic. We
    selected new breeding stock with an eye to solid outgoing
    and friendly temperaments combined with good structure.
    Since then, we have enjoyed much more success both in the
    ring and out. We have put Canadian Championships on
    more than 60 dogs including such breeds as American
    Cocker Spaniel, Standard Schnauzer, Havanese and Shetland
    Sheepdogs. Many of our Companion dogs go on to complete
    Obedience and/or Agility Titles. Our dogs are happy and
    loving with people, and they get along well with each other
    and with other animals (as our cats can tell  you!). Quite
    simply, we refuse to breed or own a dog with a poor
    temperament. After all, we believe our dogs are family
    members first and show dogs second. We test our dogs for
    eyes, hips and VwD.

                   We endeavor to stay in touch with owners of our dogs and
    are always available to answer questions and offer help or advice.
    You will often find one or two of our puppy  owners dropping by
    the house for a visit. It doesn't matter to us whether you have
    one of our show puppies or strictly a companion dog. You and
    your dog are an important team and we  want to make sure you
    are happy together!

    GUARANTEE:
    We offer a lifetime guarantee against genetic health problems. We also offer a
    lifetime "return" policy. If at any time in the dog's life you are unable to keep
    him/her for any reason, we will take him/her back.
