 Quality Canine
Quality Canine is a small mom and pop store. They ONLY sell puppies -- no cats, fish, reptiles, etc. like most pet stores sell. Ivan generally only sells Maltese, Yorkshire Terriers, Pomeranians and Chihuahuas. However, he can "special order" a different breed for someone because he has a lot of contacts through his years of breeding Maltese and his wife breeding Yorkies, plus attending numerous dog shows. He carefully screens all his breeders and he only uses breeders who produce 1 litter per year per female -- meaning if a female is breed twice in a year, he will no longer continue to do business with that breeder because he believes (as do I) that the female needs a break between litters for health reasons. He's an all around nice and honest man. His dogs are clean, well fed (you can see this from their little round bellies lol) and VERY playful and affectionate. He's constantly kissing and hugging them. I've seen it first hand. I don't compare Ivan's shop to ANY pet store. In my opinion, he's WAY above pet store standards. |
