I'm Jeff M., the breeder behind Natural State Kennels located in Heber Springs, AR. I offer working line Belgian Malinois, German Shepherds, and Labrador Retrievers. I are focused on producing dogs that excel. All puppies are tested for temperament and come with vet checks, socialization, and started on ball and prey drive. Environmentals are also started prior to going to their home. I also sell green dogs for Police work.
Q. & A. with Jeff
Why did you start breeding?
I decided to start my own responsible breeding program after being sold a dog with poor workability and genetics. After researching it, I decided to offer quality working dogs that are excellent representations of their breeds.
What makes your program special?
My dogs are bred for pedigree and working ability. I set my puppies up for success by carefully selecting the parents of each litter, keeping in mind factors such as health, temperament, and ability. My goal is to bring out the best qualities in each pairing and produce well-balanced puppies.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
