And then there were five...This girl!!?? 😲🥹🥲 Absolutely amazing! Lily came to us from Hungary a few weeks ago and immediately settled into our home and family. She allowed me to be a part of her miracle yesterday and deliver these five beautiful babies naturally in her whelping box, in my bedroom (next to Ember). Three girls (one fawn, two black) and two boys (one fawn, one black). She has been trusting, kind and very brave🥲💖 While under 16 lbs, this pint size girl was a BEAST! 💪 We are so very proud of her and her puppies and so very thankful to Judit Eisrich for trusting us with this girl, but also with your other special dogs. We can tell how well loved and cared for they were in your care and I can't imagine the emotional distress it has brought you and your family having to let them go 💔 Thank-you so much for not only trusting us with your dogs, but for caring about the "re-boot" of our Pug program and taking the time to pick out such a wonderful stud (Ch. Rainbow Shine Quantam) for Lily and facilitating the breeding. We will be eternally grateful and look forward to many great things with these wonderful dogs 😍🤩 Thank-you Judit!!! 🙏🤗❤️

Our Story

I (Cassidy) have been "animal crazy" for as long as I can remember and I have had dogs, cats and small animals since I was born. Prior to University, I used to work as a Veterinary Technician, Veterinary Assistant and a (Veterinary) Receptionist. I also used to manage an animal shelter (a "no kill" shelter). Much to my families' dismay, I often played "match maker" and tried to get them to adopt animals in need of a home.

I also used to be an Obedience Instructor for ten years and I started showing my own dogs in conformation (dog shows) in 2002. I have since been showing and handling other's dogs as well.

My husband and I have four children (two girls and two boys!) and I am educated as a teacher in the he Primary/Junior division. Raising dogs is a family hobby and passion and our children have followed in our footsteps. They play an integral role in our breeding program!

My husband and I owned our first Boston together in 2001. My husband had his first Boston when he was born and my great Aunt owned a Boston as well. My husband and I got "Bongo" (Razors Edge Bongo) as a pet in 2001 and we had no intention of breeding. We fell in love with Bongo and became "obsessed" with Boston Terriers.

So, our quest to preserve and improve the breed began. We imported our first male "Bruce" (Tangy Ewabo), from Europe and a female, "Wendy" (Doo-Shay's I.B. Brindee Jabo) from the U.S, who's lines go back to some of the top bloodlines in the United States. These dogs were the foundation for most of the bloodlines in our breeding program today.

As previously mentioned, while we love all breeds (and were originally drawn to large-breed dogs), the brachycephalic (snub-nosed) breeds are our favorite and we expanded our breeding program to include Pugs in 2018. We're super excited to breed, show and learn about these wonderful little dogs! AND of course, preserve and contribute to the betterment of the breed(s) in the future!

It's our priority to breed for health, temperament and companionship, with the hopes of producing dogs/pups for show. It's our intention to produce the healthiest, world class dogs. Thus, we breed to improve the breed and feel that the only "good" reason to breed, is to improve the breed. We breed to the breed standard, not trends (colour, etc.) and feel that "quality never goes out of style". We do not "cut corners" and our dogs get the best in health, food and medical care.

We feel that nutrition is of the utmost importance and we feed our dogs TLC holistic puppy/dog food, supplemented with NuVet Plus, fresh fruit, vegetables, cooked meat, eggs, cheese, yogurt, sardines, etc. in moderation (on a semi-regular basis). We feel that premium dog food, regular exercise and early socialization increases general health (body and mind) and longevity.

We're aiming for a square middleweight (15-20 lbs) or "low end" heavyweight (20-22lbs) Boston of good bone and substance. By not breeding closely related (they are all related at some point back in their pedigrees, as the breed was made by inbreeding) dogs, we hope to decrease the probability of congenital and genetic defects in our pups.A good Vet once told me that a breeder must consider (for their breeding program) what the world has to offer and not just what's in the locale. We took this to heart and go to great lengths and expense to increase the genetic variability in our breeding program.

We do recognize that there are "bad" out-crosses (breeding unrelated dogs) however and that sometimes a "loose" line-breeding (distantly related) is better than a "bad" outcross, as certain outcross breedings can also have the potential to bring out the bad traits in the sire and dam's bloodlines. A good breeder knows their bloodlines! all breeders of purebred dogs has/have had problems at some point and to some degree! If a breeder tells you they've never had a problem, they are not being truthful. It's how one deals with those problems that sets good breeders apart.
