A Pomeranian studio, in Griffintown.
Six years, one breed, and one rule that has never changed: never more puppies than we can know by name.
It started with a dog I never intended to breed.
Reine, my first Pomeranian, had a temperament my vet called remarkable — curious, sociable, utterly unbothered by the chaos of a rooftop happy hour. She's the one who suggested, after two years of complete health screenings, that Reine deserved a litter.
That first litter taught me the essential thing: the difference between a puppy handled daily amid the bustle of a studio and a puppy raised in a back closet never gets made up. You can still see it in Reine, now retired, who greets every new person like an old friend.
Six years later, I still raise them in my loft. Litters are born in my living room, puppies learn the elevator and the sound of the street below before they leave, and I know each one well enough to know who they should go home with.
One breed, every one of its colors.
We don't diversify breeds. Knowing one Pomeranian well beats skimming ten.
Orange sable
The color most associated with the breed — vivid and warm, truly spectacular once the adult coat fills in around ten months.
Cream & white
Soft and luminous, these shades need more frequent coat care to stay pristine.
Black and tan
Crisp, symmetrical markings are prized by breed standards — our lines produce them reliably.
Blue merle, our rarest color, produced roughly one litter in three. The merle gene requires careful genetic management: a puppy born to two merle parents ("double merle") risks deafness and blindness. We systematically test our breeding dogs before any pairing and never take that risk, even to meet demand.
What we screen for, and what we guarantee.
No mating happens until both parents have completed the screenings recommended for the breed — especially important for small frames. Certificates are handed to you in person — not summarized, not "available on request".
Patellas
Orthopedic evaluation of both parents — luxating patella is the most common condition in small breeds.
Heart
Cardiac auscultation to rule out patent ductus arteriosus, a congenital condition known in miniature breeds.
Eyes and teeth
Annual ophthalmological exam and dental follow-up — small jaws are prone to dental crowding.
A two-year guarantee against serious hereditary conditions, provided in writing. Replacement or refund, your choice.
Come and see before you decide.
I welcome families by appointment at the studio, even without a firm plan. You'll see where the puppies are born, meet the mothers, and get to ask the hard questions.
One piece of advice, even if you don't adopt from us: be wary of a breeder who offers to meet you in a parking lot or won't show you the mother. It's the most reliable signal there is.
