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.
