Meet the breeder

I'm Nanci B., the breeder behind D’or Cote located in Portland, OR. We primarily breed for health and temperament and finish our dogs in conformation to ensure they meet breed standards. Applicants are screened for compatibility with the breed, and to educate as to the time commitment and resources required for a new puppy.

Q. & A. with Nanci

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Through the influence of several key breeders in the local Schipperke Club of Southern CA.
