We are a small but passionate breeding program located in East Texas, focused on two key goals. First, we are dedicated to maintaining the integrity of this remarkable breed by staying true to its original traits. Equally important is our commitment to health. Our puppies are carefully and responsibly bred with a strong focus on health, temperament, and socialization. Each of our parent dogs undergoes thorough genetic health testing through Embark to ensure we meet the highest standards. Our mission is to provide families with healthy, top-quality pets and lifelong companions.
