Meet the breeder

I'm Erin T., the breeder behind Bartin Kennels located in Nine Mile Falls, WA. Here at Bartin Kennels health and temperament come first! All of our breeding’s are carefully planned to produce the best quality puppies possible. We breed with a mission, to improve the temperament, health and structure of the next generation.

Q. & A. with Erin

  • What makes your program special?

    Our goal is to raise the bar of quality within the UKC APBT breed as whole and leave it better than when we started. In these short 12 years we have been very successful in improving the quality of our APBT’s, our dogs have solidified this fact by the awards they have brought home. Our dogs ended the 2024 show year by claiming 4 of the UKC top ten ranked spots!
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

Getting a puppy from Erin

Erin has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.

Together, you’ll choose the puppy that’s right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.

Price

Puppy prices include a $500 non-refundable deposit and between $2,000 - $3,000 final payment, before taxes & fees.
Pay over time with Klarna.

“We practice Early Neurological Stimulation techniques (ENS) with each puppy. This aids in developing a well balanced temperament in all of our puppies. In our experience ENS lessens fear response, shortens recovery time, and creates a much more mellow and confident dog. Before heading to their new homes our puppies are treated with age appropriate wormings, and recieve their first vaccination. And finally when you take one of our puppies home our involvement is not over. We are always available to help. We want you to succeed and our Bartin Puppies to grow up happy and healthy. When it is determined that you indeed wish to purchase your next family member from BarTin Kennels and that one of our puppies would be a good addition to your home, we will send you our Puppy Purchase Agreement. Once we have both added our signature and initials, you will be asked to place your deposit ($500).”

    Erin was great to work with. Very responsive and informative. When I experienced flight delays on my way to pick up our new puppy, Ruby Sue, she accommodated the changes with ease. Ruby Sue has great temperament, easy to train, didn’t act like she had any separation anxiety. She was very loving and so easy going from the very beginning. She’s been a wonderful addition to our family.

    Erin was wonderful to work with during the puppy buying process. She always responded quickly to my questions and sent lots of pictures and videos of our new puppy. Warning - be prepared to be stopped by the masses who want to meet your new puppy! Puppy has been home with us for two weeks and has gotten a clean bill of health from our vet. Our trainer says she is clearly a smart girl. She's as sweet as can be and seems comfortable (or at least curious) in the variety of experiences she has had with us so far (restaurants, construction site, sirens, school yard, car rides, to name a few). We are very happy with our fun new rolly bundle of puppy!

    Erin made this process so seamless. She was quick to respond, very knowledgeable and happy to answer any and all questions we had. She was also kind and easy to work with!

    We are absolutely delighted with our puppy from Erin and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a well-bred, healthy, and happy dog. ​From our initial inquiry to the day we picked up Raina, the experience was fantastic. Erin was always transparent, prompt in communication, and incredibly knowledgeable about the breed and health. ​What truly stood out was the care and attention given to the puppies during those crucial first few weeks. Our puppy came to us well-socialized, confident, and already showing great signs of beginning potty and crate training. This clearly shows that the puppies are raised in a clean, loving, and stimulating home environment, not just a kennel. ​Erin provided all the necessary health documentation and took the time to explain the transition process, ensuring we felt fully prepared as new owners. Even after bringing Raina home, they have remained supportive and genuinely interested in their well-being. ​ If you are looking for a breeder who prioritizes health, temperament, and ethical breeding practices, look no further than Bartin Kennels. We couldn't be happier with our new family member!
