I'm Mary Jo B., the breeder behind Timoria Kennels located in Pemberville, OH. We breed our dogs only when the timing is right for us to provide each puppy with lots of attention. We focus on temperament and quality. Our hunting dogs can hunt. Our companion dogs are lap warmers. We are proud of the temperament and conformation of our dogs and look forward to placing our puppies in wonderful, carefully selected forever homes.
