Meet the breeder

I'm Rebecca K., the breeder behind Cedar Creek Portuguese Water Dogs located in Lakeview, MI. I'm the manager behind Cedar Creek Portuguese Water Dogs located in Lakeview, MI. I have been showing, training and breeding dogs/horses all my life. Emphasis was placed on studying pedigrees, bloodlines and genetic traits while DNA testing wasn’t available in earlier life. However, it is still important because conformation/stucture and temperaments are just as important as genetic health testing.

Q. & A. with Rebecca

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My interest in showing and breeding dogs originally started in childhood while growing up on a hobby farm with my mother raising and showing Great Danes. Our top dogs titled as American, Canadian and International Champions, at that time. This fascination with showing/breeding stuck and carried into young and middle adulthood of today.
  • What makes your program special?

    We strive for quality healthy well rounded puppies with good temperaments. Parents are genetically tested, have excellent temperaments and present themselves as a great Ambassador to the breed. It is important for us to give them the best start in life. They start with ENS early neurological stimulation, and are well socialized and desensitized gained from our knowledge using Avidog/Puppy Culture.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
