Personality
Daphne is a fun-loving playful girl. We love her sweet and endearing temperament that allows to her to fully enjoy every minute of life. She simply takes everything in and processes, knowing there’s nothing to worry about.
Why She's in the Program
Not only is she structurally sound, but she’s very balanced emotionally. She takes in the world, but doesn’t react to it. In our experience, this temperament is ideal for a dog that will be taken everywhere.
Why We Love Her
Daphne is a sweet and spirited mama! She’s the definition of balanced—non-reactive and always ready for cuddles, making her perfect for our breeding goals with therapy work. Her calm, easygoing nature allows her to take in the world, but not be burdened by it. This is why she’s fantastic at adapting to new environments and people.
Daphne is also playful and goofy at her home. She lives in a guardian home, where she gets adored as a pet most of the time, only joining us for a litter from time to time.
She absolutely lives for mornings out on the trail. If you were there, you’d see her joyfully prancing when she hears critters rustling in the woods. Best of all, she’s got a rock-solid recall—she can be counted on to come flying back whenever she’s called, she loves her people, which we adore.
Whether she’s relaxing on the couch or out on a hike, this lovely girl’s affectionate demeanor and laid-back temperament truly set her apart. She’s ready to share her warm, loving personality with everyone she meets—and we couldn’t be more proud to have her as part of our breeding program and can’t wait to see these traits come forward in her puppies.
She’s a full sister to our beloved Primrose and we are so excited to keep this bloodline going.
Ready for a Puppy?
The best way to start the process is with a puppy application. We pride ourselves on helping you find the right puppy for your family, the puppy application helps us better understand your needs. There are no right or wrong answers.
Willow Earned her Canine Good Citizen Certificate
At 8 months old, Willow cruised through her training and socialization and effortlessly earned her Canine Good Citizen Certificate. This certificate tests a dog’s ability to maintain their composure, manners, and obedience in a new environment and with unknown dogs. Willow did it with ease and this was just one more reason we had to have her in our breeding program.
We Almost Got Kicked Out of Puppy Class…
She did so well at puppy class that other people and puppies were starting to get uncomfortable, we started getting those looks like, “Hey, this is for beginners, not advanced students.” But, truth be told, she was in her first class. Needless to say, she won more treats and received the most stink eyes.
