I'm Terry D., the breeder behind Euzkalzale Great Pyrenees located in Hesperia, CA. I am a small Great Pyrenees breeder producing only a few pups yearly. My desire is to breed healthy dogs in all respects. I am interested in producing healthy, long-lived, good structured, and sound, temperament dogs from the beginning. Pyrs are gentle with children and guardians of livestock.
Q. & A. with Terry
Why did you start breeding?
I bought a pair of Basset Hounds and bred them when I was first married in 1968 -1974. A friend bought a Kuvacz and got me into showing. I bought my first Pyr in 1971 for my 21st birthday.
What makes your program special?
It's constantly evolving, I'm trying to focus on producing healthy sound dogs. Physically capable of working and mentally stable.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
