Meet the breeder
I'm Clifford G., the breeder behind Gratz Kennels located in Fowlerville, MI. All of our puppies are socialized, happy & loved. We breed for health & temperament. We spend lots of time socializing & exposing our pups to as many things in their environment so they will have a great foundation of good behavior & neurological development.
Q. & A. with Clifford
Why did you start breeding?
We got into breeding due to a very close friend that breed and shows Airdales and French it's as well as runs a upscale petstore. We wanted to take some of her practices and use them as well as for the love of dogs and wanting to breed our favorite breeds with the best temperaments, confirmation and health possible.What makes your program special?
We try to breed with the concept of trying to improve the breed, not just breed because we have them. They need to be happy, healthy socialized dogs with something to offer their breed. We do tend to breed for Confirmation and Temperaments. Many of our dogs have come from Confirmation shown backgrounds, not field and trial or agility.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
