I'm Alisa H., the breeder behind 3Dawn Doods located in Hagerstown, MD. We raise our dogs with love in our home. We have high expectations for our pups and strive to put each one into a loving family. In order to start our puppies off on the right paw, we begin training and socializing at a young age so they are set up for success in their new homes. We prioritize the health and well-being of each one of our puppies and follow all appropriate puppy health protocols. We are very passionate about our puppies and focus on early stimulation for well balanced, happy, lifelong companions.
We are a very small, in home breeder averaging one litter a year. Our dogs live and sleep in the home along side us to ensure they are exposed to sounds and movements of a normal household.
Parents have had full DNA panels.
We select our breeding pairs with care and offer a variety of colors.
We can provide multiple references along with photos of previous puppies.
