I'm Kate B., the breeder behind Spellbound located in Union Bridge, MD. I offer top-quality Belgian Sheepdog puppies with a focus on health, form, and function. I believe quality is more important than quantity. My focus is on maintaining the Belgian Sheepdog standard by raising structurally sound pups with excellent temperaments and great health. I take great pride in my breeding program.
Q. & A. with Kate
Why did you start breeding?
I decided to start my breeding program in order to preserve the wonderful qualities I found in my dogs. They excel both in their work and as companions. I am dedicated to improving my lines with each generation so that the breed will continue to thrive for a long time to come.
What makes your program special?
I focus on breeding dogs with enough working drive to keep up with my lifestyle, but also have amazing temperaments and can quickly adapt to a calm family setting. I work hard so my puppies can leave my home with confidence, ready to take on the world with their new family!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
