Q. & A. with Kim
Why did you start breeding?
Claddagh Pastures began as a dream in 1994. Breeding Great Danes and Puddin Jacks was a star on my horizon, finally becoming established in 2016 striving to produce quality Great Danes and Puddin Jack Russells focusing on health, temperament, conformation, and structural soundness. Our pups are curious, playful with intelligent minds. Loyal and obedient with the ability to adapt to any situation
What makes your program special?
My breeding program is based on years of research. All our dogs are Embark Tested and Clear through Embark. We use Puppy Culture Training. Breeding for temperament and confirmation first to be able to have your new family members for years to come.
Our pups are sent home with as much training as possible to live out healthy and loving lives
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are white and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
