Meet the breeder
I'm Louise F., the breeder behind Barnwood located in Powell, OH. My dogs are not only champions in the ring but in the hearts of their forever families! I am purposeful in everything that I do regarding my dogs, which includes careful selection of breeding dogs and extensive health testing. My goal is to produce healthy dogs with great temperaments that are exemplary representations of the breed.
Q. & A. with Louise
Why did you start breeding?
I fell in love with Rhodesian Ridgebacks and Whippets and decided to start my own responsible breeding program in order to continue my incredible line and to share these wonderful dogs with others. I’m passionate about what I do and am dedicated to producing healthy, quality dogs. It's an amazing feeling knowing that I made a positive contribution to these dogs and the families who love them!What makes your program special?
I am a professional breeder of my high-quality dogs. I do not produce a litter unless each of my parent dogs is fully healthy and excellent representations of the standard. I am dedicated to always having responsible policies when it comes to breeding, training, and rehoming my pups. I love what I do and truly want nothing more than to see each and every one of my puppies shine! I look forward to connecting with you.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
