Kendra B.

Breeder of Shetland Sheepdogs

Meet the breeder

I'm Kendra B., the breeder behind Lukaru located in Jerusalem, OH. We are a small, in-home breeding program where we prioritize giving each dog and puppy the best care that we can. We cherish all of our animals and enjoy sharing the love of this breed with other individuals and families! Puppies come socialized to small children, cats, chickens, and cows.

Q. & A. with Kendra

  • What makes your program special?

    We are focusing on producing balanced, confident Shelties who can do anything. I want to be able to take my dog from farm to city and have them be comfortable and confident in themselves. I am hoping to help disabled handlers match up to their best match puppy.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are sable and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
