I was raised on a rancho in Mexico where animals were part of everyday life. I cared for goats, cattle, even helped deliver calves with my dad. That experience shaped me. After moving to Washington, our dogs became my comfort—especially when our daughter left home. Holding them close helped me through some of my hardest moments. That’s why I raise every puppy with true love, so they’re not just pets—they’re companions who understand and give back the love they’re given.
