We are breeders who do everything we can to better the breed and ensure our dogs and puppies are able to get the very most out of life.
Q. & A. with Laura
Why did you start breeding?
After owning my first two Spanish Mastiff puppies, and experiencing their unique personalities and realizing they were fabulous livestock guardians, and family guardians as well, I began to look for other breeders in the US. There were only two, and bloodlines were very limited. My hope was to improve the gene pool here and to breed something closer to the real working dogs in Europe.What makes your program special?
I ask a lot of my dogs. In addition to their guardian duties, they must display stable temperaments under various circumstances, and be able to handle socialization. I expect a certain amount of decision-making and threat assessment skills as this is an important part of a livestock guardians' job. They must pass all health testing, a DNA panel, and hip evaluation through OFA, PennHip, or both.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
