Meet the breeder
I'm Sawyer G., the breeder behind PreVi Kennels located in Sioux Falls, SD. PreVi Kennels is built upon a foundation of love, admiration, and respect for the Lowchen. Our goal is to produce sound dogs in temperament and mind that will excel both in the conformation ring and as your companion! My passion for this breed is poured into every aspect of my breeding program. I truly love my dogs and what I do.
Q. & A. with Sawyer
Why did you start breeding?
My love for Lowchens inspired me to share this amazing breed with the world in a responsible way. My breeding program strives to maintain the unique characteristics of the breed while placing an emphasis on producing puppies of superior health, temperament, and conformation. It is such an honor to preserve the line of these incredible dogs all the while creating companionship for others!What makes your program special?
I strive for quality and excellence with everything that I do. Holding myself to high standards is paramount to the well-being of my dogs and to the integrity of my program. I am very conscious about who I rehome my puppies to and always ensure that each one goes to the best home possible complementary to its temperament and ability. While many of my dogs have made exceptional show prospects, all of them have become excellent family dogs and lifelong friends!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
