All my sires and dams are fully health tested.

From start to finish this was a wonderful and beautiful experience. Zachary and his wife were professional and extremely patient answering the tons of questions about food, treats, schedule and all things that can cross one’s mind when getting a Belgian Shepherd puppy. My family and I are so blessed to have this wonderful addition to our household.

I couldn't be happier with the experience I had with this breeder. From the start, communication was excellent, and it was clear that a great deal of care and dedication went into raising the puppies. Seven came home healthy and confident, with a wonderful temperament and an excellent foundation for training. The breeder was knowledgeable, supportive, and always willing to answer questions throughout the process. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a well-bred, thoughtfully raised puppy. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful addition to our family!
