Meet the breeder

I'm Michelle G., the breeder behind Bydand Newfoundlands located in Sanborn, ND. I have been breeding for 24 years. I am active in showing my dogs in conformation and I have produced many conformation champions, working titles-water titles, draft titles, many therapy dogs, but most importantly of all the titles I can brag about, I'm most thrilled with all the wonderful dogs I have placed into so many loving homes through the years. I do health testing on all my adult breeding dogs, including, hips, elbows, echo doppler heart exams by a board certified cardiologist, cystinuria, and pattela's. All puppies are sent home after a physical exam and a cardiology check of their heart. Pups typically go home around 9 weeks of age. Puppies will go home up to date with shots, I send them home with a puppy package with many goodies. I register my pups for my families with AKC.

Q. & A. with Michelle

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Newfoundland puppies include black and brown. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

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

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
