website!
My puppy's are sold exclusively from word of mouth, my website and from the American Kennel Marketplace, any other advertisements you may see online with my name or that of Astarte Kennels are fraudulent and should be ignored.

Due to recent online fraud, make sure you are speaking to the actual breeder!
Astarte Bichons Frises and Barbets was established in 1972 in Phoenix, Arizona where I showed my dogs in the South West and California for over 38 years. We moved to the Pacific Northwest in 1996.
I am a professor of psychology and teach genetics and Neuro-Psych for a University of Massachusetts
We are a small family show and breeding kennel, including my Granddaughter Shanea Erickson and her daughters who are also actively showing making four generations. We are devoted to the betterment of the breed and striving to help new owners achieve success in the show ring, as well as with their family companions. We are not a puppy mill, breeding puppies for a profit. I do not sell and have never sold my puppies through pet shops, dealers or on listings for puppies you may find on the internet that deal with puppy mills or ill treated dogs. I do not and will not breed designer dogs EVER.
All our babies are born in our living room and are well socialized, not leaving home until they are ten weeks old. You are welcomed, and encouraged, to visit our homes as often as you like while your puppy waits to go to his or her forever home.
My puppies are guaranteed for two full years and I reserve first rights, for return of the puppy to me, if for some reason you can no longer keep him or her. I will provide testimonials and to speak with past puppy buyers.
We are members of the : AKC, The American Barbet Club, and Past President of the UKC: United Barbet Club.
We are now the proud owner of eight
Barbet's a rare breed French Water Dog one thousand +- in the United States and 3000+- in the world. The American Barbet Club worked tirelessly toward full AKC recognition and are currently shown in the AKC sporting group as of 2021
group. Barbets are now fully accepted in AKC and are accepted in all of Europe and Canada in the National pure Bred Breed clubs. We are members of the UKC Kennel club, AKC and the American Barbet Breed club and a proud member and Past President of the UKC Barbet United Kennel Club.
