Black Iron Betty

Betty comes from an impressive list of dogs in her pedigree. She was appraised at 88.1%. During the appraisal, the appraiser complimented not only her rear angulation but also what a great temperament she has! Betty loves her family and wants to be wherever we are. She’s friendly when she’s out in public but more protective when she is home. She’s always ready to go do something but also content to just hangout with her people. She is 24.5” at the withers and 135 lbs.
