I'm the breeder behind Lambkin Lane Farm located in Rushville, OH. Lambkin Lane Farm is home to Scottish `Blackface Sheep and we're also huge advocates for the proper use of Livestock Guardian Dogs. Our sheep are protected 24/7 by our Anatolian Shepherds and Orso, our Maremma. Our kennel's name is Montizard.
Our primary objective is to provide top-quality beloved companions. We are home-based breeders dedicated to bringing healthy, loving, and high-quality Anatolian Shepherd Dogs into the homes and hearts of their forever families. We love our dogs and are passionate about raising our puppies to be the best family companions.
Q. & A. with Douglas
Why did you start breeding?
Our first dog breed was the Dandie Dinmont Terrier and for 40 years we bred litters producing dozens of AKC champions including BIS and Specialty winners. Anatolians came into our lives when we introduced livestock to our lives and continue to amaze us with their versatility. Show dogs, guardians and as therapy dogs, they are the best.
What makes your program special?
For as long as we've been breeding dogs we've had once guiding philosophy - Breed the Best! That means breeding for temperament as well as conformation and with the Anatolians that also means striving to retain their incredible livestock guardian attributes.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include brindle, gray fawn, fawn, and biscuit and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
