Hi Reader,

I have something very exciting to share with you today! I was interviewed on The Honest Dog Breeder podcast. If you haven’t heard of this amazing podcast, it’s by Julie Swan, who has a business supporting ethical dog breeders, hence the name. Julie helps breeders better serve their clients and honor their dogs while balancing the rest of their lives, families, etc.

Julie is doing a 12 Days of Breeders series this month, and she asked if I wanted to be on the show. Of course, I jumped at the chance! I got to share all about my amazing Maremmas – how I started breeding dogs (Maremmas weren’t my first breed), why I chose Maremmas for my farm, what matters to me, how I raise and train my pups and support my clients, and so much more. I got to tell stories about some of my wonderful puppy clients and how much I treasure them and enjoy hearing from them even after their pups are grown.

If you want to learn more about me and my breeding program or are just curious about what it’s like to be a dog breeder or why we do what we do, check out my interview!
