Meet the breeder
I'm Laura B., the breeder behind Rocky Fork Newfoundlands located in Lucas, OH. I strive to make sure every owner has the ability to get the very best out of their puppy. Sometimes the most ordinary things can be made extraordinary simply by doing them with a Newfoundland.
Q. & A. with Laura
Why did you start breeding?
I began breeding Australian Shepherds over 15 years ago because of my love of the breed. I fell in love with the Newfs and switched breeds after my pair of Aussies died at the ages of 14 and 15.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are not raised as a business. We do not keep more dogs than what can be cared for as a pet. Puppies are raised in-home, introduced to house-training early, and we keep contact with our puppy owners.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
Matched dogs
