Meet the breeder

I'm Richard S., the breeder behind Hawk's Eye Homestead located in Tyner, NC. My passion is to breed quality pups and connect them with loving forever homes. I keep a variety of factors in mind when choosing dogs to breed so that puppies can inherit the best of both parents. I am confident that my puppies will enrich your life just as much as my dogs have touched mine - they are happy, intelligent, and cute as can be!

    I could not thank Richard and his family enough for my perfect little angel baby! You can really tell how much they care about their puppies in how well they raise and socialize them. Bear is so smart, the sweetest boy ever (especially with kids!), good with other dogs, and all around the best companion I could’ve asked for! I cannot recommend Hawk’s Eye Homestead enough!

    Verified owner · Sept. 2026

    I couldn’t recommend Richard and his family more. It was immediately clear how loved and well cared for the dogs were, and I had such a great experience that I ended up getting not one, but two — Leroi & Henri. Richard was incredibly communicative throughout the whole process, always sending photos and updates and making everything feel easy and comfortable. You can tell how much he and his family genuinely care about the dogs, and I’m so grateful to have found them. These dogs are the loves of my life!

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
