Meet the breeder

I'm Elizabeth O., the breeder behind GradyHaus located in Williamsville, NY. Our dogs are bred for health, intelligence, conformation and good temperament with a focus on the ability to work.

Q. & A. with Elizabeth

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I started out with my first litter 5 years ago by myself. With each litter, I learn something new, create new relationships and now surround myself with knowledgeable people and mentors in all aspects of breeding, show, and sport. As I gain knowledge and a better understanding of what I am looking for to add to this breed, each litter becomes better and better.
  • What makes your program special?

    I work closely with my repo. vet. providing all shots/deworming/microchip and health cert. My pups are raised in my home, handled, socialized with family and other pets, crate/car/start of potty training will begin, we offer inside/outside activities to build strength and confidence as well as noise desensitization therapy. All pups are reg. with AKC which we provide free of charge.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
