Three puppies at two weeks
Although the FCI standard prefers a white coat, it is fun to sometimes have a variety of color. The darker colors usually fade by the time a puppy is 1 1/2 or 2 years old.
Who's expecting?
No one at this time!
No one is currently bred. My last was Wonderland's Personal Treasure who is available as a pet. She is 1 yr. and 2 mo.

Cotons just like to have fun!

Emma's three puppies, born May 19th, 2003
I am a breeder/exhibitor of Coton de Tuléar. I pledge my efforts toward the preservation of the Coton de Tuléar type, and breed for balance. If I should be so fortunate as to improve the breed in any area: intelligence, health, temperament or conformation, I will consider myself a success.
FYI:
When inquiring about the availability of puppies, please feel free to ask any questions that come to mind. I do my best to respond to emails and phone messages in a timely manner but I am sometimes overwhelmed by taking care of dogs and puppies, working on renovating this old farmhouse and just completing tasks that confront all of us everyday. Be persistent... I don't mind being "bugged".
I do usually have a waiting list of people who have submitted deposits with their applications, so I rarely get to those who submit the questionnaire alone. Visitors are welcome.
Here is a puppy learning to "stack". This is the way a judge or a breeder checks for proportion, topline, tailset, etc. This is a girl from the April 2002 litter.
Socialization is very important! It is a daily responsibility taken with great care. I try to adjust exposure to new things and activities according to their development and age. Their mothers are the main tools of socialization, though. There is nothing more fun than seeing mom and pup wrestling in the yard.
Practice makes perfect!

Guess what! Alabama is known as "The Cotton State"!
