Q. & A. with Cindy
Why did you start breeding?
Breeding Dutch Shepherds because I was concerned about the impact of (BYBs) crossbreeding which is diluting the breed. My years of owning purebred Dutch Shepherds and experience in breeding, I decided to dedicate my time. I am semi-retired; I have time to help preserve the integrity of the Dutch Shepherd breed with responsible breeding practices, and importance of the integrity of this breed.What makes your program special?
Our commitment lies in producing dogs from working bloodlines, ensuring they possess the ideal blend of mental resilience, physical soundness, and appropriate temperament.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
