Catawba Cotons

Catawba Cotons, run by Jami Johnson, breeds both pet and show quality Coton de Tulear dogs in Statesville, North Carolina, a city in the heart of the Piedmont region about 40 miles north of Charlotte.

Health testing is a central part of the program. All breeding stock undergoes comprehensive DNA testing as well as hip and elbow assessments, with pairings only taking place after breed-specific testing is complete. The program deliberately keeps its breeding stock small in order to focus on producing dogs that are genetically clear across all markers, including conditions such as von Willebrand disease, progressive retinal atrophy, canine multifocal retinopathy, and primary hyperoxaluria. All puppies leave with a North Carolina health certificate.

The program places equal emphasis on matching each puppy to a home suited to its individual personality, and any Coton de Tulear placed by Catawba Cotons may be returned at any time for any reason. Families searching for Coton de Tulear puppies in North Carolina will find a program that takes both the genetics and the lifelong placement of each dog seriously.
