I'm Paul & Courtney K., the breeder behind Passion Staffords located in Concord, VA. We take great pride in all of the dogs and puppies raised here. We put an extra special emphasis on type, health, temperament, and structure. We have been breeder-owner-handlers since 2007. All of our puppies are raised with Puppy Culture and come with a life long commitment from us!
Q. & A. with Paul & Courtney
Why did you start breeding?
Breeding was a passion we discovered by accident. We got our first Stafford in 2007, we began showing and have been hooked ever since. Once we learned how to align pedigrees and genetics to improve on the breed it drove our passion even further.
What makes your program special?
The thought that we put into our program makes it special. There is so much more to having puppies than just mating dogs. We take very careful consideration when selecting breeding pairs, always making sure to research and get advice from our mentors.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
