More Info on Theo

I am very excited about this breeding  which brings together such complimentary pedigrees .
​Both parents are lovely examples of the breed with wonderful temperaments. 
 "Luna" is my lovely Doobie x Titan daughter.  
She is a big  girl with a gorgeous head, beautiful movement, lovely rich dark color and a wonderful soft temperament 

"Theo"  is a handsome, happy go lucky boy from my Artesanal Chocolates Litter
At 12+ years young, Theo is as healthy as can be and thinks he is still a pup.
He  lives a charmed life with the Cartwrights  in Ohio.
Theo is beautifully balanced, has a gorgeous head, great bone and substance, lovely dark color and
a wonderful temperament. Theo comes from a pedigree with great longevity. 
He was shown to his Championship by a Junior.

*****
Thanks to Sandy Mejias (Old Towne School for Dogs) for the expert  Temperament testing!
Thanks to long time Swissy owners/breeders Sharyl Mayhew and Ellyn Signet for doing the show evaluation!

​
Thanks to all the friends and neighbors who visited regularly and helped socialize these puppies. 
Most importantly, huge THANK YOU to all the wonderful families who have  welcomed these  special puppies 
into their loving homes!
