Meet the breeder

I'm Allison R., the breeder behind Oakview Kennels located in Lincolnton, NC. Our dogs excel in the ring and as beloved companions. We are very proud of their accomplishments and those of their puppies. Our goal is to ensure every dog that comes from our program is set up to live a happy and healthy life and is prepared for its future role when it leaves our care. We provide each of our pups with lots of socialization and love, and we are dedicated to maintaining responsible breeding policies.

Q. & A. with Allison

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My mom grew up breeding and continued breeding with my family. It’s something I have been around my whole life and am very passionate about dogs, their well being, and making sure breeding is done correctly
  • What makes your program special?

    All of my dogs are raised around live stock and so many people we really try to focus on socializing before they go to their forever families and try to give them the best start at life. If our dogs don’t meet their temperament test evaluation then we will not pass those genes on to their puppies
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
