Meet the breeder
I'm Allison R., the breeder behind Oakview Kennels located in Lancaster, SC. 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. Our puppies are offered as pets only with limited registration.
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 correctlyWhat 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 puppiesWhere do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

From the moment I brought Freya home, I knew she was the perfect addition to our family. She is incredibly sweet, loving, friendly, and has the most wonderful personality. Honestly, I don't know where she's been all my life! She does amazing in the car, loves meeting people, and has adjusted so well. It's clear she was raised with so much love and care. Allison has been absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. Her communication has been outstanding from the very beginning and continues even after bringing Freya home. She genuinely cares about her puppies and is always available to answer questions and offer support, which has meant so much to me as a first-time Sheltie owner. I truly couldn't be happier with my experience. Freya has brought so much joy into my life, and I can already say that when the time comes for another Sheltie, I won't hesitate to come back to Allison. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a healthy, well-socialized, and loving Sheltie puppy!

Allison is extremely easy to work with and a fantastic communicator. She really cares about her pups and is extremely knowledgeable about dogs in general, especially her breeds. Our puppy came home at 8 weeks completely healthy with all his, and the parents' records. Would highly recommend!

Allison was so great to work with! My husband and I adopted a beautiful Sheltie from her and we wouldn’t recommend anyone else! Every time there was an update, Allison made sure we knew and sent us weekly pictures of our sweet girl. Allison was very responsive to all of my messages and I felt I got all the answers I needed for my questions! She made us feel so comfortable taking our Sheltie home and checking up on us. You can tell this is Allison’s passion and she always does what is right for your puppy!

I had a wonderful experience with Oakview Kennels and got a beautiful, healthy miniature long-haired dachshund! The breeder was very responsive, kind, and helpful. They sent us home with a baggie of food, 2 toys, AKC papers, and shot/deworming records. I highly recommend Oakview and have already told family and friends to go to them when shopping for a mini dachshund!
