Top Dogs
Meet the breeder
I'm Tracy D., the breeder behind Top Dogs located in Pikeville, KY. I’m a retired firefighter/EMT and a retired martial arts instructor. I have a large family—four kids and five grandkids. My goal is to breed extraordinary dogs for great owners. That is why we only breed once a year our puppies alway go through a early neurological stimulation program. Basically it’s called a super dog program. The US military came up with it for their own dogs.
Q. & A. with Tracy
Why did you start breeding?
We started breeding to grow a great IPO 1 2 3. For personal protection for families who consider their dog as a pet as well.What makes your program special?
We only breed once a year. Sometimes once every two years. We are more worried about the proper placement of the dog than making money.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
