My whole life has revolved around animals, people and children. I was raised on a small farm in NH and my grandparents raised and showed poodles. I am a registered nurse and the mother of 3 children. I have been breeding Papillons for almost 30 years. Our oldest daughter, Erin, wanted a "Yittle" dog since she first learned to speak. After much research and speaking with my vet we settled on the Papillon. He told me that Papillons were a very healthy breed with very few genetic or medical concerns. We started in dog 4-H not long after acquiring our first 2 paps. Erin literally had a room full of ribbons and trophies. Erin is now married and lives nearby with her husband and 3 children. They breed, raise and train Australian Labradoodles. My 2 youngest daughters, Gianna and Selena have graduated from grooming school and help Erin and I with all that goes into raising excellent puppies. They both enjoy training, grooming and spending time with our dogs. I am pleased that I have passed my compassion and love of dogs onto my children and now grandchildren. Dogs offer so much unconditional love and always find a way to bring joy, happiness and peace!
Papillons are incredible! They excel at obedience and agility, although they are just as happy being lap dogs. Whatever your lifestyle, they happily adapt and adjust. They love romping outside or can be just as easily house trained to use piddle pads for people who live in apartments.
During the last 30 years I have been involved at various times with dog 4-H. I was the assistant leader for a few years. I have also been a judge at several local dog fairs. I am a certified dog trainer. I graduated with honors from Animal Behavior College. I did my apprenticeship at Petco in Manchester NH. I have also trained at All Dogs Gym and with the Greater Derry Humane Society. Most recently I put a Canine Good Citizenship Title on several of my dogs through All Breeds Training Center.
