Eveready J x EK Faith

This girl is full of enthusiasm and has an incredible work ethic! She’s extremely positive and always keen to get stuck in, and we’re loving what we’re seeing from her.

Really looking forward to seeing what Rogue produces for our line moving forward. Exciting times ahead! 🐾

Sometimes genetics just display what they naturally have.
The job is to give them the right opportunity, build the confidence and let them show you what’s already there.
No need to overcomplicate it 🐕💪
