Q. & A. with Leah
Why did you start breeding?
I’ve always had a passion working with dogs so when we brought home livestock I was excited to get a livestock guardian dog. I fell in love with the Kangal Dog and knew I wanted to be involved in raising and preserving this special breed.What makes your program special?
We focus on breeding excellent working and companion dogs with correct conformation and with an emphasis on the breed’s characteristic calm, stable temperament.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Kangal
About Lira
Lira is a female Kangal. Carefully selected as a great representative of her breed, Leah decided to make her part of their program. Leah has passed Good Dog’s screening process, which involved a review of their breeding practices, environment, and the mental and physical health of their dogs.
Great health testing
Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), von Willebrand Disease III (vWD III), +2 more.
Parent health testing
Great level
Berecz Hollow Farm reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Kangals.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
DNA Disease Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
