Hello everyone. Sorry it's been so long since posting but the page was compromised. The big news is we've retired and moved and are no longer breeding. But we still co-own a couple of girls so will post news of dogs of HappyLegs lineage from time to time. Thank you for visiting this page over the years. And all the best to you and your dogs.
