I'm Katelyn S., the breeder behind Schattens Bach Kennels located in Williamstown, KY. I offer top-quality puppies with a focus on health, form, and function. I believe quality is more important than quantity. Each puppy is greatly loved by me! I ensure they are socialized, healthy, and prepared to excel in their forever homes.
