Our goal at Serafina is to build a better show dog. On the way we will breed a better pet dog. The purpose of every breeding is to improve the dog. That means breeding to improve coat, movement, attitude and structure. We are commited to doing this by using outcross and very little if any line breeding. We believe that many of the problems such as weak patellas, stifles, elbows, bad skin, bad temperment and fatal genetic disease can worsen or be caused by too much inbreeding.

We only keep a few Papillons at Serafina, because is not possible to take good, loving care of large numbers of dogs. When the dogs are no longer needed for breeding (3 to 6 years of age) we neuter them and place them in a pet home so they can enjoy the rest of their life while still young. We are able to keep a breeding program with lots of outcrosses due to my friends and partners who share their breeding lines with me. We are commited to excellence in Papillons. We think our show record reflects that. I found Papillons to be a wonderful breed. They are very playful, active, yet loving and sweet when held. They run and play for hours, but when you hold them they melt in your arms. I welcome interested folks to my house and kennel in Cotati to visit the Papillons. Once you meet them you will be smitten them as much as I was.

.My Papillons prices start at $350. I retire females at the age of 4 to 7 years. .
