Meet the breeder

I'm Lauren H., the breeder behind For The Love of Dogos located in Youngstown, OH. We do our best to socialize and acclimate each litter so we’re able to offer all-around healthy and well-mannered puppies! Our dogs are bred for health and temperament with a focus on conformation, athleticism, and intelligence. We are dedicated to providing our families with wonderful, healthy family pets.

Q. & A. with Lauren

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When I decided to become a Dogo owner, I wanted to be more than just that. I decided that I needed to know as much as I could about this breed and what it took to be an amazing Dogo mom. The best decision I ever made was becoming a Dogo mom (owner). Once I knew how special these dogs are I decided I want to produce great bloodline Dogos for others.
  • What makes your program special?

    My husband and I decided we would become a dog owner, then a dogo owner. I wasn't sure what I was signing up for at first. So I watched video after video, read article after article and book after book. I also joined so many Dogo groups to make sure I was getting what I wanted which was much more than just a dog. Dogo's are hands down one of the most amazing dog's you could own.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
