Meet the breeder

I'm Jennifer R., the breeder behind Tir na nOg Leonbergers located in Maple Valley, WA. We are committed to preparing each one of our puppies to thrive in their new homes. We strive to improve the breed & produce puppies that come as close as possible to the standard and being the ideal Leonberger. No dog is perfect, but we do everything we can to minimize problems & improve the breed.

Q. & A. with Jennifer

Why did you start breeding?
My first Leonberger she was a show and breeding potential, my first show dog and a Championship at 2. She was our original foundation girl, had our first two litters and was grandmother to our Finnegas, a Top Twenty Conformation winner for 3 years. I have taken many seminars and studied pedigrees and genetics to improve my breeding outcomes and helping & rearing skills. I am always learning more.
What makes your program special?
We have carefully selected dogs with longevity and health behind them while maintaining structure and type. When we weren’t happy with the health of our foundation line we walked away from it and started over using our breed knowledge to select a healthier line. We are breeding champion dogs of good size, substantial bone, and excellent temperaments to provide the standard Leonberger people want.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
