Susan Swan

Susan Swan, Papillons, Arizona, AZ, works in the Sonoran Desert region near Phoenix. With more than a decade of experience, she holds membership in the Papillon Club of America and screens breeding dogs for patellar luxation, heart health, and eye conditions.

Her dogs live inside the family home, where puppies grow accustomed to household sounds, children’s laughter and daily routines. They enjoy supervised playtime in a shaded yard and regular outings for socialization with visitors and local parks.

New litters are raised underfoot in the kitchen to help pups adjust to family life before their transition to new homes. Susan welcomes questions by email and aims for open communication about lineage, health history and personality traits. Her adult dogs have earned kennel club titles in conformation and agility, reflecting a focus on sound structure and friendly temperament. One recent review noted the breeder’s transparency and attentive follow-up after adoption.
