I'm Dorothy B., the breeder behind Baskerville Shepherds located in Columbia, MD. We breed and show our dogs out of a love for and dedication to the protection and betterment of the breed. Our program has produced excellent show ring and performance dogs, but we’re equally proud of all the dogs that we’ve placed in loving homes as family companions.
