Breeder of Great Pyrenees

Meet the breeder

I'm Hannah L., the breeder behind Heritage Mountain Ranch located in North Fork, CA. We offer well-tempered dogs with foundations that nurture curiosity, drive, and obedience. We are conscientious in our breeding practices, and we breed for health, temperament, and ability. We want our dogs to be able to succeed wherever they are needed, as well as to thrive in their homes with their families.

Q. & A. with Hannah

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Years ago we had our lovely Lily, who lived to be 13! So many of our friends up here wanted guardians like her and they were hard to find. We were also moving to 40 acres in North Fork with only one Pyr to guard. She wasn’t our first Pyr, but our only at the time. I’d bred collies many years before. So we acquired our Patrick and kept Whisper from their litter. We’ve had 5 Pyrs at one time here and that’s a good number.

  • What makes your program special?

    We breed for color, that is unique. Sometimes our dogs retain it as adults. In purebred dogs there is no genetic diversity, which is why you get genetic weaknesses showing up like hip and elbow problems. Genetic problems are always recessive, so can be strengthened with any differences in breed traits. The fact dogs are purebred rules out diversity. So we look for color and coat differences. They are still within the breed standard, of course. We also breed for good personality and temperament and we breed rarely. Our litter this year is our first in three years.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
