Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Level Up K9 located in Street, MD. We are a passionate and dedicated breeding program that produces dogs with great working drives, conformation, and temperaments. Our dogs are excellent working dogs, and we are proud to continue their line. We breed both to provide families with loving and capable companions and to improve upon our dogs' fantastic traits with each generation.
