Our Story

Hi, we are Julie and Shane Ritter. We are a husband and wife team in Vonore, TN that adopted 3 Westies in 2022. We loved them so much and discovered they are kind of a rare breed, so we decided to breed our two mamas, Skippy and Pippy, with our boy Winston! We find so much joy in these little puppies and the families that they join!

Our mission is to match every pup with a loving family. We love all of our puppies so vetting the families that adopt them, is very important to us!

Media manager and husband

Our social media, photos, communication and website, is all ran by our media manager (and daughter) Ruth! She and her husband David live in LaFollette, TN. She will be the one to take payments, organize pick ups, and help you find your perfect puppy for your family.
