A Little About Us & Our Farm

Hi, I’m Erin Friesen. My wife, Corinne and I have four girls, Bethany, Naomi, Mandy and Katrina. Mitchell Penner decided to ask for Bethany and she said yes so she left the farm but they still come back for visits occasionally. We all work on Chickadee Valley Farm together and welcome you to our website.

Shichons

Shichon litter

The Shih Tzu/Bichon cross is a non-shedding hypo allergenic dog which makes them a great family pet for in the home. Shih Tzu’s have straight hair whereas Bichon’s are curly. Our puppies have a little more Shihtzu in them so they typically have shorter noses and straighter hair. They are usually around 9 to 13lbs full grown and have wonderful temperaments. These dogs are great with kids, very friendly and insanely cute.

Frenchtons

Frenchton litter

The French Bulldog and Boston Terrier mix is an all-around awesome dog. The black and white coloured Boston Terrier is typically known to want to please their master and the tan, brindle or piebald coloured French Bulldog is the more humorous dog guaranteed to keep you young with their silly antics. The Boston’s longer legs combined with the French Bulldogs shorter legs provide the Frenchton with a nice average leg length. The longer nose of the Boston Terrier compliments the shorter nose of French Bulldogs which helps for less breathing issues. Frenchtons are around 22 to 28lbs full grown.

About Chickadee Valley Farm

Springtime at Chickadee Valley Farm

As a kid, I grew up on a farm where I spent countless hours outside with friends and a dog by my side roaming the hillside in the woods and along the Pembina River. In 2005, Corinne and I purchased what is now Chickadee Valley Farm from my parents where we farm grain/edible beans and raise puppies. In 2008 we started raising the Shichons and a few years later brought in the Frenchtons. Year-round, we are graced with Chickadees on our bird feeder and love them for their song and cheerful disposition.We raise both Frenchtons and Shichons available periodically throughout the year. Each of us do our part in sharing puppy chores which includes socializing the dogs and ensuring they are well taken care of.We do business and are available all week except Sundays which is our day of rest.
